You’ll also learn everyday vocabulary such as family, food, transport, and common objects.

Russian is a gateway language to Eastern Europe, Central Asia, and beyond. It is spoken not only in Russia, but also in Belarus, Kazakhstan, Ukraine, and across many post-Soviet states. For travelers, knowing Russian makes journeys safer and far more rewarding, as English is not widely spoken outside big cities.
Russian is also a language of culture: Tolstoy, Dostoevsky, Chekhov, and Tchaikovsky have shaped world literature and music. Mastering Russian allows you to experience these works in their original form.
Professionally, Russia remains a major global player in energy, science, engineering, and international relations. Russian is one of the six official UN languages, making it highly valuable for international careers.
