About Live & Learn program

Homestay with a teacher

As students speak their target language during the whole day, they improve their language skills in all aspects.

In-home and outdoor lessons

In this program, there are in-home lessons structured according to the communicative approach and outdoor lessons to let students get Russian cultural background and explore one of the most marvelous cities of the world. The teacher is always near the student throughout the whole day to kindly correct mistakes and introduce new vocabulary and phrases.
