our news!
 
Nearing the end of the last week of summer. The previous week was fun as always. Despite the weather, we were going with our friendly company on the lake and have picnics. Some of the bravest guys swam in Lake Onega. Four students attended a real Russian Banya. They liked it so much that instead of the two hours they were there for five hours. Unfortunately we’ve said goodbye to some of our friends! we wish you all best and good luck in learning Russian! But of course we have some more students from Holland, Turkey, Finland, Spain, Austria, France  and Germany.
Despite everything, we continue to study the Russian language and have fun, despite the cold weather, our company is always very warm.
Very soon the anniversary of our school and we are happy to see everyone!

Russian Language School “Enjoy Russian” welcomes new students, who came from France, Lithuania, Germany, Austria, USA, Switzerland, Sweden, Italy, and Spain and even from Ireland. Now we have international students’ team!
The whole previous week Russian volunteers implemented different activities for our guys: welcome party for the newcomers, Petrozavodsk’s presentation with its amazing places. Last Friday our guys went to karaoke, at the Sigmund Freud club to celebrate Stuart’s last day. Artxon, Albert and Janin are performed songs for us and the Russian audience! It was really fun! Administration of SF gave guys a bottle of Karelian balsam as a surprise because of Stuart’s departure. At the weekend the students visited the famous Valaam monastery on the Ladoga Lake and went to the open air museum Kizhi on the Onega Lake. Unfortunately along with Stuart left Robin. We had very long and great time together. We also wish you all the best in your way home!))
Nevertheless, a lot of new and exciting activities such as rafting, rock climbing and museums are waiting for our friends next week. We hope you are satisfied with your time spent in Russia.

We are happy to present you Victoria’s summary about her wonderful experience as a volunteer in RLS “ER”. During her stay she managed to volunteer in a language camp for kids and in a  Charitable Foundation “Mother’s Heart”.
“Volunteering at the English language summer camp was a great experience. I was working with children aged 7-10 and they were very enthusiastic about being able to practice their English language skills. We played games, did crafts and went on excursions. My favorite excursions involved sand painting and making “kalitki” at a local restaurant. I think I had just as much fun as the children did!


 
Volunteering at Mother’s Heart was a very special experience. It is a great organization that is doing wonderful things for the children of Karelia. I spent one day a week at the organization’s office learning more about the work that they do so that I can be an ambassador for their fund. I also spent another day once a week at a social center working with the children who live there. We did art project master classes which were intended to promote creativity and socialization. This is very important work and the children really seem to enjoy the visits. I’m very happy I had the opportunity to work with Mother’s Heart while I was in Russia.”
 
 
 
Being a volunteer in different projects  is the perfect way to master your Russian for free. You can choose from a variety of fields in which to volunteer, for example:
“National food party (show)”:
 If you like to cook you can teach kids how to cook the traditional dish from your country involving them in the process and turning cooking in a game. This event takes place in the restaurant “Begemot” in the weekend.
“Cultural weekends”:
During this event you can show kids cartoons, teach them your national games and let them teach you the Russian ones. “Weekends” take place in the ice-cream café “Iceverk” in the weekend.
“Funny English”
These events give you the possibility to teach Russian kids English and tell them about European countries in a funny way. It will be held during English classes at our school for young learners (7-12 years) on weekdays.
Join us and try yourself in challenging projects ;)
