Phillips Academy – our partner from the USA

“EnjoyRussian” Language School has awesome partners! One of them is Phillips Academy (Andover, USA). It is one of the oldest high schools in America (established in 1778). The school has its own emblem which was created by Paul Revere as well as school’s motto «Non sibi» (Not for self).

It is hard to get accepted to the school. If you’ve done it, you have a chance to become a student of one of the world top universities – Harvard, Oxford, Cambridge. About 30% of the school alumni enter these universities.

The main idea of the educational process is to help young people grow intellectually, artistically, athletically and morally. The teachers try to bring out the best in the students. One of the school courses is Russian as a foreign language. And that was a starting point for our cooperation.

We have been partners since 2010. Each summer a group of 5-13 students comes to “EnjoyRussian” with their Russian language teacher Victor Svec. Usually students spend 3 weeks in Petrozavodsk living in Russian host families and studying Russian. The main idea is to improve Russian speaking skills and get to know Russian way of life. Petrozavodsk is the best place in Russia to learn the language! There are few people speaking English in the city. So you have to practise the Russian language.

There is a cultural program for American students. They visit Open-Air Kizhi Museum, The Musical Theatre of the Republic of Karelia and some other entertaining places in Petrozavodsk. Each summer they can join teens from International Summer Language Camp and spend time with Russian teens.

This year students from Phillips Academy (http://enjoyrussian.com/american-students-become-russian/ ) have implemented their own Russian language projects (http://enjoyrussian.com/summer-time/). They are really interesting and creative.

There are many volunteers of Russian Language School in Petrozavodsk of all ages.

But all of them have different background, family, education, hobbies.

Let us present you the most active volunteers of June – Mane and Lilit Manutsyan. They are sisters but very bright and individual.

For example, Mane likes German language while Lilit adores French language.  Both of them speak English language and Mane practises Italian as well. But at home they speak Armenian language because their parents are from Armenia.

Mane  likes cinema, journalism, active life-style and travelling while Lilit likes basketball, France, hats and music.

Both of them are students of Petrozavodsk State University, future philologists.

During the June, Mane and Lilit became friends for more than 5 students. They helped them to orient in the city, use their guidebooks, activate sim-card, go to bank and so on. AlsoMane became an interpreter in lecture about Karelia for 10 students.

As a present for their active participation in Russian Language School life, Mane and Lilit gained free tickets in bowling club.

Do you want to join our volunteers and practise Russian language?

Welcome Karelia!

Today I want to continue telling you about our “Enjoy Russian” Language School teachers. Last time I told you about Evgenia Laverucheva, and now I’m happy to introduce you to the most patient teacher in the world – Olga Yartseva.

She’s been working at “Enjoy Russian” language school for 8 years already. She loves teaching the Russian language to foreigners, because it’s an amazing opportunity to meet interesting people from all over the world, introduce Russian culture and traditions to them, help them learn Russian as a foreign language.

Olga works with the groups of foreign students of all levels, but she is especially awesome in teaching 0 level students. She is extremely patient and calm. She can always explain things, even to someone who’s never learned any foreign languages before. She uses interesting modern teaching methods and techniques and all the students say that the Russian language is just a piece of cake if you learn it with Olga.

Come to Petrozavodsk and meet our amazing teachers in person! Russian is easy with us!;)

It’s summer – time to eat fish and potatoes and a fresh salad

All our students just LOOOOVE Russian food, but only Lara, a student of Phillips Academy (Andover, USA) that took our course in June,  came up with an amazing idea for her project – divide her favorite dishes into seasons: the best food for summer, autumn, winter and spring in Petrozavodsk.

She thinks that a salad with tomatoes, cucumbers and olive oil is a summer salad, which is right, because we mostly have these fresh vegetables in summer and early autumn. Lara likes to eat her favorite dish – fish with potatoes, which she had with onions with her host family, – in summer too. The best summer drink, Lara says, is tea with berries and honey – that’s a Karelian traditional thing, because we have lots of berries here.

Autumn: грибной суп (mushroom soup), фаршированные блины со сметаной (stuffed pancakes with sour cream), “Бабушкин торт” (gradma’s cake) – YUMMY!!!!

Winter: щи (traditional Russian cabbage soup), горячий шоколад (hot chocolate), курица и картофельное пюре (mashed potatoes with chicken) – that’s what you need in cold Russian winters!

And finally – Spring: борщ, сырники (cheese cakes), лесные ягоды (and forest berries again).

Lara did a great job, creating a book of amazing Russian dishes, showing her experience of life in Russia and using only the Russian language to write it! Hope to see her again in our school!
