Yerevan: Russian Language Intensive

This 6-week intensive Russian language program is designed for students at the A2–B2 proficiency range (Intermediate Low through Advanced Mid). Study in Armenia’s culturally and historically rich capital, Yerevan, where Russian is widely spoken and there are opportunities to connect with both the deep traditions and dynamic contemporary life of the region.

The program is structured to cover the equivalent of at least one academic semester of university-level study, with all courses providing proficiency-oriented instruction in speaking, listening, reading, and writing, and with a particular emphasis on oral communication. It meets all FLAS requirements for this level.

Participants will commit to using only Russian in classes, program activities, clubs, and interactions with peers, creating a full immersion environment. Instruction combines daily language classes with weekly lectures in Russian on topics ranging from art and history to politics and popular culture, as well as a weekly phonetics workshop designed to better master pronunciation and improve fluency.
