If you're a student at the University of Colorado - Boulder and you're learning Russian to fulfill a language requirement, Varsity Tutors can set you up with Boulder Russian lessons that will suit your academic goals. Learning a new language is always difficult, and Russian is no exception. Whether you're in college or you're still a student at Fairview High School or Boulder High School, we can enroll you in an online Russian course or help you find a reliable Boulder Russian tutor who can help you better understand the language.
What Are the Perks of the Different Types of Boulder Russian Lessons?
Varsity Tutors can set you up with two different types of Russian lessons. The first is an online course where you can interact with students and instructors in a virtual classroom, and the second allows you to work with a private instructor either online or in person. Both have their advantages, and many students opt for a combination of both types. No matter what type of lessons you decide is best for you, you will be receiving guidance from expert instructors who love to share their knowledge of the Russian language with their students.
When it comes to learning a foreign language, one of the biggest challenges is finding a chance to practice speaking. Russian is spoken by over 265 million people all over the world, but it can be hard to find someone who speaks it fluently in the United States if you don't live in a community with a sizable Russian population. A Russian language course or lessons from a private tutor can provide the kind of immersion you need to learn how to understand the language and make you feel more comfortable conversing in it. It also allows you to hear essential vocabulary in its proper context and even pick up some new words and phrases.
If you're the type of student who does well in a collaborative setting with others, an online Russian course might be the best option for you. When you enroll in an online Russian course, you will be placed in a virtual classroom and will engage in learning activities and conversations in Russian with other students and a qualified instructor. Depending on your skill level and proficiency, your instructor might even teach entire sessions in Russian. You will also learn about the Cyrillic alphabet, how nouns are gendered, how Russian grammar works, and how words are pronounced. You will also learn a bit about Russian history and Russian culture, both of which are important if you ever plan to travel or speak with native speakers. Naturally, your instructor will be available to provide one-on-one help by request if you ever need it.
Varsity Tutors can also set you up with a Boulder Russian tutor if you would prefer private instruction. Private instruction can be tailored to your own learning style and gives you the chance to work on your pronunciation with a patient and supportive mentor. You can spend as much time as you need on areas where you need the most help and generally learn at your own pace, something that isn't always an option in a classroom setting.
How Do I Enroll in Boulder Russian Lessons?
Regardless of whether you would prefer an online Russian course or private instruction, you will almost certainly find a way to work your Russian lessons into your schedule. Online courses are available in two-week or four-week sections, and new sections begin monthly. Since they are entirely online, you don't have to travel to a physical classroom to participate in a session, nor do you have to worry about missing a session due to illness or a scheduling conflict. As long as you have a reliable Internet connection, you can participate in the course from anywhere.
If you decide to study with a private instructor, you will have even greater flexibility. Most students meet with their instructors online through our Live Learning Platform. This allows students to interact with their instructors through video chat and gives them a virtual whiteboard that they can use during their lessons. If that doesn't sound helpful to you, you can also choose to meet with your instructor in person. No matter what you decide to do, your instructor will work with you to fit your lessons into your own schedule.
Learning a new language can be a challenge, but Varsity Tutors can make the process a bit easier by enrolling you in Boulder Russian lessons online or setting you up with a Boulder Russian tutor. To learn more about how you can get started with your own lessons, contact us today.
John: Boulder Russian lesson instructor
I graduated from the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in NYC in 2008, the oldest English speaking acting conservatory in the world. I graduated Summa from University of St Thomas with a BA in English, and just wrapped up a MS in Data Science from Northwestern. I'm a huge Red Sox fan and love watching detective shows when I have free time.... Positivity. Always. I believe that if a student is given positive tools and is allowed to understand the material rather than be lectured at, they're more likely to do well in the future.

...Later on, my extensive experience in the classroom as a Jumpstart Corps Member taught me to adapt my teaching style to each childs needs. While some learned better through mnemonics and letter-to-word associations, others preferred to process information and teach content back to me themselves. The greatest lesson I've learned as a tutor is to first step back and let a student tell me their goals, show me how they take in information, and point...
