LIVING GRAMMAR

Живая грамматика
The course focuses on verbs of motion in both literal and figurative meaning, the use of verbs with different cases, imperfective and perfective aspects of Russian verbs, short adjectives, participles and other challenging grammar. You will see these grammar points in action in both spoken and written language. We will actively use them in discussions. The course combines all four skills: speaking, reading, listening and writing. Each material is accompanied by a glossary and audio recordings. This course is recommended to those who wish to take an advanced Russian course in the future. For more information please see the course description.
