Frequently asked questions

I’m a complete beginner. Which Russian class in London should I start with?

If you are completely new to Russian, start with an absolute beginner Russian class, beginner Russian level 1 course or introductory Russian course. These classes are designed for adults with no previous experience and usually cover the Cyrillic alphabet, basic pronunciation, greetings, simple questions, everyday vocabulary and the first building blocks of Russian grammar.

Do I need to know the Cyrillic alphabet before joining a Russian class?

No. Absolute beginner Russian classes usually introduce the Cyrillic alphabet from the start. You do not normally need to read Russian before joining a beginner course. If the course is beginner plus, improver or conversation-focused, check whether it expects you to already know the alphabet.

Should I choose an absolute beginner, beginner or improver Russian class?

Choose an absolute beginner Russian class if you are new to Russian, Cyrillic and pronunciation. Choose a beginner class if you know the alphabet or a few basic phrases but cannot yet hold a simple conversation. Choose an improver Russian class if you have studied Russian before and want to build vocabulary, grammar, listening and speaking confidence.

Is Russian too hard for a complete beginner?

Russian can feel challenging at first because of the Cyrillic alphabet, pronunciation and grammar. That does not mean it is a bad choice for beginners. A good absolute beginner Russian class will move step by step through the alphabet, sounds, simple phrases and basic sentence patterns. If you are motivated by Russian culture, travel, literature, film or work, it can be a rewarding language to start.

Can I find Russian conversation classes in London?

Yes. Learn.London lists Russian conversation classes in London alongside structured Russian courses. Conversation classes are usually best if you already know some Russian and want to practise speaking, listening, pronunciation and confidence. If you are a complete beginner, a structured beginner Russian course is usually a better starting point.

Are Russian pronunciation classes useful?

Yes. Russian pronunciation can feel unfamiliar at first, especially if you are learning Cyrillic at the same time. Look for classes that mention speaking, listening, pronunciation, oral practice or conversation. These are more likely to help you build confidence with Russian sounds, stress and clearer spoken Russian.

What Russian class should I choose if I learnt some Russian before?

If you learnt some Russian before but have not used it for a while, look for a Russian refresher, beginner plus or improver class. If you still remember the Cyrillic alphabet, basic greetings and simple phrases, you may not need an absolute beginner class. If reading or speaking feels rusty, choose a lower level first and move up later.

Are Russian classes good for travel and culture?

Yes. Russian classes can be useful for travel, culture, literature, film, history, music and conversation. Beginner Russian classes usually focus on practical foundations such as greetings, introductions, numbers, directions, food, shopping, transport and everyday situations.

Are in-person Russian classes better than learning Russian with an app?

Apps can help with vocabulary and daily practice, but in-person Russian classes give you live speaking practice, correction, pronunciation help, listening practice and support with Cyrillic. If your goal is to actually speak Russian and understand the language properly, an in-person class can be a useful complement to self-study.
