Russian as a foreign language

Dear friends and colleagues!

If you have decided to visit this page of our portal, it means you are attracted to an extremely interesting and constantly developing field of knowledge called Russian as a Foreign Language.

We have done our best to fill this section with information that would be useful both for those who teach Russian to foreign citizens and for those who study it in Russia or abroad.

For practising teachers, the most interesting sections will be those containing material related to acquiring necessary professional skills, improving pedagogical expertise, professional development, and organising the educational process (I Want to Teach RFL, Useful Websites and Portals, Literature on RFL). In the section Methodological Resource Collection, you will find the names and achievements of leading figures in Russian domestic RFL methodology, along with their best lectures, excerpts from practical classes, and video materials on some key communicative topics commissioned by the Pushkin State Russian Language Institute.

If you are studying Russian, then of course you have already understood that this is not an easy task. Russian is beautiful, rich, but at the same time very difficult. Remember the cases that exist in Russian, or the aspect and tense of the Russian verb... And the peculiarities of intonation!.. But if you are a brave person and have seriously decided to learn Russian, then the following sections will be useful for you: I Want to Study, Useful Websites and Portals, Testing in RFL.

The materials collected in the section Poems and Songs in Russian are addressed primarily to children who live outside Russia but consider it their homeland, the homeland of their ancestors, and therefore want to maintain spiritual ties with it. In the catalogue Images of the Russian Word, you will find proverbs and sayings about language and speech, illustrated by works of students from art schools.

Do you want to teach foreigners the Russian language?

Do you want to speak Russian well?

Are you interested in the history and culture of Russia?

Is your life connected with the life of our country?

Then we are on the same path! Let's learn Russian together!
