Elementary Russian II

Catalog description

The course combines the traditional grammatical approach with a communicational, interactive method. The course covers the situations, vocabulary and grammar required to take the students to the Pre-Intermediate level. Since the size of the classes is usually small we can put a great emphasis on drills in spoken Russian and to the acquisition of an idiomatic conversational vocabulary. There will also be increased attention to reading and writing skills and the students will do considerable amount of grammar and vocabulary exercises in the Workbook as part of the home assignments.
