This week our dear students continue working with their Russian! They  are making good progress!

As for their free time it is also very efficient!  Guys have visited Opera, Organ Concert,  now they are getting ready for the volunteering project – meeting in a café  with Russians who are interested in learning  foreign languages!  Such meetings are usually very interesting and useful for both sides. It is a usual practice that our foreign guests participate in the volunteer activities for Russian children and adolescents, aimed to explore the European countries, languages, cross-cultural differences in the continuous social project "Language Club."  Moreover participation in volunteer projects it is a successful way to learn Russian.

 

Tomorrow   Russians celebrate Defender of the Fatherland Day. The holiday marks the date in 1918 during the Russian Civil War when the first mass draft into the Red Army occurred in Petrograd and Moscow. It was originally known as Red Army Day.  In 1949, it was renamed Soviet Army and Navy Day. Following the fall of the Soviet Union in 1991, the holiday was given its current name.

Officially, as the name suggests, the holiday  is celebrated by people who are serving or were serving the Russian Armed Forces (both men and women), but unofficially, nationally it has also more recently come to include the celebration of men as a whole, and to act as a counterpart of International Women's Day on March 8

Russian Language School Enjoy Russian congratulate all men in Russia and all over the world and warmly invite all to join us  in Spring to celebrate Easter all together!!!
