During the last two years we face an increasing number of participants from Eastern European countries. Usually group courses are not an ideal solution for Slavic language speakers: learning Russian is much easier, than for Western Europeans. Putting these two groups of students together in one group makes lessons not efficient: one is struggeling while the other is bored.

For that reason, we usually recommend individual courses to those who have a Slavic language as their mother language. However, we still face many requests for group courses, which have two main advantages: price and the social atmosphere during class.

Therefore, we will organise a special group course for people with a Slavic language mother tongue, from 13 of August (arrival) till 27 of August 2011 (departure).

There will be two levels: a “basic” group and an “intermediate” group. We invite Polish, Czech, Slovak, Bulgarian and people from former Yugoslavian republics to this group-program.

The course will have the same format as our usual “group crash courses”:
- 40 group hours of tuition
- 12 hours of duo-practice lessons
- 3 group excursions

In the price of 895 euro (795 euro for full-time students), is included:
- tuition, practice, excursions
- accommodation*
- 2 airport transfers (at arrival and departure)
- visa support (invitation letter and registration)
- enrollment fee, administrative costs, taxes

* accommodation based on a shared room in a shared apartment; alternative: single room (extra 19 euro/night), homestay (extra 29 euro/night), single apartment (extra 59 euro/night).

Amount of places is limited, maximum 5 places for the basic level and 5 places for the intermediate level.

Discounts: We offer a 5% discount when subscribing before April 30th 2011.

For people who write a blog during their stay, there is an additional 100 euro discount. Example of blogs:
