Tuesday: 10:45 AM-12:00 PM

Learn how to read and pronounce Cyrillic using the Russian language. This course uses Google Translate to help students read and speak Russian to help build vocabulary. Students learn the phonetics of the alphabet and are given tools that can help them learn in class and independently. This is not a regimented foreign language class. The measure of success is conversational comfort, not tests!

This offering meets for a total of 4 session(s).
