How to learn Russian
It made me
vecely!
 "Awesome. When people ask you why you're doing it, it's okay to say, 'Because I want to'."
How I did it: Took 1st through 3rd year Russian, and went to Middlebury College Russian Intensive Program in the summer. Got a scholarship to go - it was the most rewarding post-grad educational experience I've had! Everyone should at least check out Middlebury's language programs - some are only 6 weeks long, and you leave fluent in your language! Lessons & tips: Remember that just because you've had trouble learning a new language in a classroom, that doesn't mean you're bad at languages. Put yourself in a situation that's like real life. Study in an immersion setting; live with a host family; go to Middlebury College in Vermont. Give yourself that opportunity before you get too hard on yourself. Everybody can learn!

I was at first upset to see that I did not have any Russian teachers locally, but while searching online found Prime Language Services, who became my Russian study guide since then. They provided me with an online … Read how I did it…
