Russian

I have been learning Russian with my grandma for several years now. I used a wonderful textbook - it's called Pojechali and it's really interesting. I used all six volumes of this textbook and I finished it just a year ago. Now I'm using different, more difficult textbooks. I'm preparing for an internationally recognised exam now.

I learn Russian in an ordinary, classical way - from textbooks and talking with my grandma in Russian and also listening and reading in Russian. I have lessons usually every week.

I also listened to quite a few audiobooks in Russian - most importantly all 7 books of Harry Potter. These are my favorites and I listen to them over and over again.

Several times I tried to find myself a Russian penpal. It never quite worked out, though. We always exchanged just a few letters and then my penpal would stop writing. But at least I got to write and receive a few letters.

 

This is my favorite textbook (probably the best ever made - in my opinion).

 

There are stories, poems, information about Russia, songs and so many more things and all are in modern Russian.

There is even a reading-book from the same authors:

 

This is a page from another of my textbooks. It's the one I use right now.
