Это просто отлично!

Wednesday, December 30th, 2009

Это просто отлично! Здесь мне удалось учиться у опытных и добросердечных преподавателей. Когда я приехал сюда 11 месяцев назад, совсем не знал русского языка. Но они терпеливо провели меня к цели владеть русским языком. К тому же, дружеские секретари всегда помогали мне либо по поводу русского языка, либо по поводу жизни в Санкт-Петербурге. Без их помощи, моя жизнь была бы гораздо труднее.

Вот чего только не хватает мне? Да мне не хватает времени только. Если у меня появится возможность заниматься языком в России. Я бесспорно люблю именно эту школу. Только желаю, чтобы школа опять разрешила ленивому студенту, как я, поступить!

Liden & Denz was the right choice.

St.-Petersburg belongs to the few cities someone has to have visited during his lifetime. But for the whole experience of the culture and people you ought to be able to communicate with the natives and know where the special places besides the tourists owes are.

Liden &Denz supports that thought by olding tours through the city of museums, vodka parties where you get to know Russian students who want to learn foreign languages or many other activities (e.g. pottery courses) 1st the same the school knows how to prepare the students for common Russian conversations and to explain how to get along with certain Russian characteristics.

In conclusion the 6 weeks passed by far to quickly and Liden & Denz was the right choice.

This year I have to learn Russian. After having finished 12 years  of school I had planned a gap year in which I would travel to Russia to learn the language. Finding a proper organization was difficult and very time consuming. After having failed to find the times, time was running out. Consequently I was very relieved when encountering Liden &Denz website and starting my course just one week later.

The school proved to posses all characteristics to create a welcoming, cozy yet competitive environment. From the first day, the relationship between teachers and students was one of understanding and mutual learning. Located in the center oh the city and providing many excursions and other activities, the school integrates with language in a easy manner. Overall a grand experience.

Une ambience studieuse et decontractee, c`est l`impression generale que me semble le mieux description de l`ecole.

Les  professeur sont conpetants, les secretaries pretes a donner on coup de main. Nous pouvons manger sur place dans la sale et surfer gratuitement sur Internet.

Comme etudiant je me sens encadre et suivi. Les cours principaux en groupe reste sans doute les plus propices a l`apprentisssage du Russe avec une ambiance de classe agreeable permettant de nombreuses rencontres.

“I intend to come back as soon as possible”

Monday, November 30th, 2009

“What else is more wonderful than to be received with a warm smile? So happened in my host family and at the reception desk of Liden & Denz language school.  The sincere behaviour of my host family as well as of the staff of Liden & Denz created a homelike atmosphere which made it possible to concentrate on studying the Russian language, to discover Russia’s capital and to meet its people.

My host family was taking care a lot about me. Even though there was sometimes a huge lack of vocabulary in my Russian, it was possible to communicate – if necessary a paper and a pencil was patiently used to draw tiny and funny pictures to make oneself understood. I enjoyed a lot my stay at my host family; by the way: the room was comfortable and had all facilities needed (except internet), the food was delicious and if I did not like a meal the family was so polite not to serve it again. During the conversations the family and me developped more and more our own way to communicate and very soon we had our favorite dictum: sletela kukushka – u menja sletela, u nevo… to everybody sletela kukushka! So, I guess this proves that I had a lot of fun there.

At school the fun continued – at least during the breaks. The Russian language is not the easiest one. If someone intends to study Russian, he or she should definitely be aware of (several) possible crisises. The kind and friendly teachers were always patient, too, and they insistently invited the students to ask all questions which came up to their minds. The art is to find the right balance between the life in family, the language course and Moscow’s exciting life. If you achieve to do so, the glass of champaign served on every Friday will be a delicious reward for the hard work during the week. I enjoyed my stay in Moscow a lot and I intend to come back as soon as possible.”
