Youtube reviews of Exlinguo Russian immersion course

I spent 5 weeks at Exlinguo this summer, spending three in St Petersburg and then two in Novosibirsk, and I honestly was so impressed. Right from registering, the organisation and communication was excellent, which made the whole process really easy. Starting the course with very basic Russian, I was really impressed with how my teachers encouraged me and therefore how much I realised I was able to say. Speaking was a key component in all classes at both centres, and because of the really small class sizes I was able to very quickly improve my speaking and listening skills. The teaching was also really personal and so much thought was put into the organisation of the teaching groups that you always felt supported and that you were improving.
