I chose Liden & Denz after researching a number of Russian-language immersion programs. From my first day, it was obvious to me that I made a great choice. The administrative staff is exceptional. Every morning I am greeted by smiling faces. They are well-organized and very competent. They are also friendly, kind and supportive and always willing to help with whatever I need. The teachers are terrific. The student population is very diverse (nationalities, age, reasons for studying) and they manage to accommodate the different learning styles and needs. I love my teacher. Her class is both structured and fun. I am excited by the progress I am making thanks to her engaging lessons and patient guidance. Another huge plus for me is the cultural and social activities that the school organizes. These programs are great, not just for the insight into the history and culture, but also because they provide an easy way to get to know the other students. Lastly, as a serious coffee drinker and laptop user, the cafeteria with its free wifi is just one more aspect of the school that I appreciate. I am very happy with my experience here. The Liden & Denz program has exceeded my expectations.
