In addition to a wide range of courses in the field of Russian (e.g. individual Russian language training, group Russian language courses, Russian language seminars for companies), the teaching of Eastern European languages is also an important focus of our language school's activities. Our Russian language courses are suitable for students with a wide range of background knowledge and needs, i.e. from absolute beginners to very advanced learners, and are usually held in the form of individual lessons with highly qualified teachers (native Russian speakers with university degrees and teaching experience).

At our language school, we understand individual training or one-to-one lessons to mean not only individual language lessons for one person but also individual courses for a small group – usually consisting of 2-4 people (e.g. married couples, colleagues, friends) – who have decided to improve their foreign language skills together. This form of language training is also very effective and flexible, as learners can benefit from the advantages of individual training described above and save considerable money compared to individual tuition for a single person.

However, these individual courses are only useful and successful if all participants have similar prior knowledge of the respective foreign language (or are all beginners) and have common learning objectives and ideas regarding the language course schedule.

Russian language courses as individual lessons in a small group can, like individual training, also start at any time and at short notice. For individual Russian lessons, our language school has competent native Russian speakers as well as qualified Russian and Spanish teachers with extensive international teaching experience.

Our language school organises individual lessons for private individuals and language courses for companies and institutions in almost all foreign languages, also at the participants' premises throughout Barcelona, Madrid and the surrounding area.

Intensive Russian language courses or intensive courses as private Russian lessons for fast and clear learning.

Russian language courses at our language school can also take place as intensive courses or accelerated courses if it is important or necessary for the student to make very rapid progress in learning the foreign language.

These intensive courses usually consist of at least 20 double lessons (90 minutes each) and are held almost every day or several times a week; full-day lessons and a very large number of lessons (e.g. more than 100 hours) are also possible, especially if beginners or students with little previous knowledge needed to reach a significantly higher level of language proficiency in a short period of time.

Upon completion of the intensive Russian language courses or intensive Russian language courses, participants – as after completion of individual training – may receive a signed certificate or a certificate of attendance.

In-company Russian courses and individual Russian lessons for companies at all levels (A1 to C2 according to CEFR).

Our language school can organise and conduct short-term Russian language courses for companies and institutions (e.g. public authorities, research institutes and educational institutions) in Barcelona, Madrid and the surrounding area.

In doing so, we can take into account the client's specifications regarding the timetable (scheduling), the number of participants, the focus of the content and the teaching materials to be used. In-company language courses can also be subject or sector-specific, e.g. Russian language courses for business, office communication, tourism, gastronomy, hospitality, telecommunications, media, manufacturing, transport, technology, computer science, natural sciences, medicine, pharmacy, research and development, electrical engineering, electronics, mechanical engineering, plant engineering, retail, wholesale, import, export, construction, architecture, advertising, marketing, banking, insurance, service industry, agriculture/forestry, education, art, culture, sports...

Main topics of our Russian courses and private Russian lessons

As the Russian lessons at our language school in Barcelona and Madrid are usually organised as individual training, the teaching topics and the focus of the language training can be agreed upon individually between the student and the teacher, depending on the participant's previous knowledge, learning objective and areas of interest.

As a rule, the following teaching topics are the main focus of our Russian language courses or individual Russian lessons:

The team of teachers at our language school includes native Russian speakers who teach language classes at a wide range of levels for individuals and companies. Most of our native Russian teachers also have a very good knowledge of Spanish and English, making them ideal for language classes with both beginners and advanced participants.

In addition, our language school also has Spanish and Russian teachers. Our Spanish and Russian teachers are usually graduates in Slavic studies, i.e. they are trained or future linguists or secondary school teachers for these languages or have a comparable qualification. In addition, our Russian teachers also have extensive experience abroad, from which they can benefit in their teaching activity. Our Russian language courses not only teach the language but also include important country knowledge and intercultural competence.

If the students already have prior knowledge at the beginning of the foreign language training, e.g. buried school knowledge, our teachers first conduct a placement test in spoken and written Russian in order to objectively assess the linguistic starting point, so that the students are neither under-challenged nor over-challenged in the language lessons. This is followed by a needs analysis, which shows which main topics (e.g. teaching everyday vocabulary, tourist vocabulary, regional studies, colloquial/technical language) and which language activities (e.g. speaking freely, listening comprehensively, reading, understanding and translating texts, composing written messages) are of central importance to the learner in Russian lessons.

The placement test and needs analysis form the basis for the individual design of the syllabus and the selection or compilation of teaching material for the Russian language course. The content and method of language teaching are adapted to the needs, wishes, objectives and prerequisites of the individual learner.

If the learner has little or no previous knowledge of the Russian language, the simplest basic linguistic aspects such as sentence formation (syntax), pronouns, simple conjugations and declensions, elementary everyday vocabulary, numbers, the alphabet, phonetic formation in the foreign language .... are covered first.

If the pupils do not wish otherwise, foreign language training is carried out in the Russian language in spoken and written form, whereby not only linguistic knowledge (vocabulary, idioms, grammar, etc.) is taught, but also the language skills of speaking freely, understanding, listening and reacting are systematically trained. The language activities listening – speaking – reading – writing are considered in context and practised in various situations. The language skills taught are directly applied in oral communication and thus consolidated and deepened. Free oral expression (monologue and dialogue) plays an important role in our language classes, in which topics of interest to the respective student are selected.

Regular progress tests in speaking and writing provide the teacher and student with feedback on progress made and orientation for further teaching and prioritisation in the Russian language course.

If the student already has a secure and ready-to-use basic knowledge of the Russian language, there is also the possibility to orientate the language training fully or partially towards a specific profession or subject, e.g. courses in Russian for business (e.g. "Business Russian"), commerce, technology, natural sciences, computer science, law, tourism, hotel and catering, gastronomy, medicine...

Russian courses at our language schools in Barcelona and Madrid can also serve as preparation for specific events and plans of a professional or private nature, e.g. an upcoming holiday or business trip, studying abroad, a job or business activity abroad, a job interview or a job interview in Russian, foreign language conferences, fairs, specialised presentations...
