Russian language for students and travellers in open groups
More and more international students show their interest in the Russian language, Russian culture and Russia itself. It’s commonly accepted that the best way to master a language and gain confidence and fluency is to take a language course in the country where this language is spoken.
Throughout the year IQ Consultancy offers Russian language courses in open groups for students and travellers from all over the world.
Students who come to study with IQ Consultancy are taught in small groups (3-5 students) which prove much more effective. Open group classes is not only an effective way to attain a certain level of language competence but also a great possibility to gain unforgettable experience of cross cultural communication.
IQ Consultancy offers different course types for open-group students.
