About us

Developing deep empathy for our customers’ needs

Educa Language School was established in 2003 as a school specialized in teaching Russian language and culture to foreigners, and has proudly been one of the leading language centers in Saint Petersburg.

After 2022, our school relocated to Armenia, retaining not only its experienced teaching staff, but also high teaching standards. We have chosen Armenia because its culture is strongly intertwined with Russian and 70% of people in Armenian speak fluent Russian, so we saved for our students the language environment as well.

I am an American University Student studying at Educa School. I spent the whole summer learning Russian with Educa. The teacher has been fantastic. I have learnt so much and for me the most important part of my experience was improving my speaking abilities and having opportunity to practice them. It has been super fun and I would recommend Educa to anyone who is interested in learning Russian.

The first thing that I liked at Educa is that this is a great-looking school. In addition to that, the group that I had was small, there were just four people. It was really easy to talk in a nice atmosphere and nice dynamic. The teacher that I had, Nina, she was fabulous! She presented the material clearly, answered all the questions, was funny and really well-organized. So, I had a great time here and I strongly recommend it to come here.

I’ve been studying Russian for more than four years now but this was the first time I was studying with Educa School. It was very positive to combine what I was learning in the classes with my experience outside. The only negative thing is that I could only stay for two weeks, I wish I could stay longer.

I came to Educa to study Russian and learn something about Russian culture. I came as a total beginner and now I’m able to speak in the streets, ask for a meal and people can understand me, so it’s a great achievement for me. We had amazing teachers, great groups, everybody was really focused on. It has been a very good experience for me.

In September 2025 I spent 2 weeks at the Educa Language Centre in Yerewan. My teacher, Rina, was excellent. She explained well grammatical problems and we also had good conversations in russian. So I could practice this language. Yerewan is s good place to stay! I can warmly recommend it, same goes for the school and the two young ladies of the staff. Thanks a lot and best wishes to everybody! Dina

I did a 5-week, one-to-one language course (Russian) in summer 2024. The staff was very friendly and helpful throughout the whole process of choosing the appropriate course, recommending accommodation, etc. The teacher was excellent and prepared each lesson according to my needs. We also went on cultural visits to museums in Erevan and outside of the city. The school was well equipped with everything necessary. I can only recommend.

I had a thoroughly enjoyable time studying Russian at EDUCA Language Centre in Armenia whilst in addition experiencing the unique culture of this beautiful Country! Although only able to spend a week studying, I opted for a 1to1 class. In this short time I was able to overcome many obstacles of this complex language & now feel more confident when communicating with native Russian speakers. My teacher, Ekaterina, was very professional & her friendly approach to teaching with copious support & encouragement throughout each lesson added to my positive experience. The Language Centre is well located in Yerevan & the admin team were very friendly, polite, highly professional & it was always a delight to see their happy smiling faces each day! Thank you all so much!

I studied Russian here for 4 weeks and it was a great experience! All of the teachers are energetic and resourceful and I think that I learned a lot. There were tons of opportunities to speak and we had a lot of great lessons that involved listening, grammar, and writing as well. Additionally, I really enjoyed spending time in the city of Yerevan - it's a very interesting place with a ton of history, great museums, and a lot of cool neighborhoods and parks to explore. I highly recommend!

It's just my 10th day here at Educa, out of 3 months, I still have many things to study in order to improve my russian skills, but so far I may say I'm fully satisfied of the courses. Classes are very small and teachers can focus on you, answering to all you doubts. The material is provided day by day by them, and last but not least every now and then they organize interesting trips and excursions around the city to make you know it better. I highly recommend it.

我已经是第二次在Educa学习了。我真的喜欢这个学校。我和这里的很多人都成为了朋友。我的老师们不仅在学校里帮助我学习俄语。他们也给了我很多在圣彼得堡生活的建议。我和这里的同学也相处得很好。明年我回圣彼得堡的时候还会和大家一起出去玩。 It was my second time to study in Educa. I love this school. I have become friends with lots of people here. I know my teacher Nina, Anastasia and Natalia pretty well. They do not only teach me the language but also provide advice on how to live in SPB. I made lots of friends here too with whom I hopefully will hang out next year when I am back to this magic city of history, culture and arts.

I was with Educa for for some classes in September and I cannot recommend a better institute. I conducted lots of research regarding where I wanted to study Russian, and I was delighted to see that I had made an excellent choice. The whole team is professional, engaging, kind and open. I will return for a much longer stay, and I cannot recommend them highly enough. Perfect school for immersion in Russian language, culture and St Petersburg. The location is also excellent - 1 minute from Winter Palace.

It took some time for me to research and decide on the best school to learn Russian but after seeing the location and contacting other students I’m glad I chose Educa. I had so many questions and Galina was so kind, detailed and quick to respond that I knew I wouldn’t have to worry. I studied Russian many years ago so I am starting from a basic level and from day 1 my teacher Polina went full-immersion mode and only used English when it was necessary. There are great activities planned and I am looking forward to them. With the student id you get discounts and free entries to many places around the city including the breathtaking Hermitage Museum. My experience is positive so far and I will be staying for 1 month.

I highly recommend this school to learn Russian! When choosing a school, I compared some Russian Language schools in St. Petersburg, and I found that this school is the best in terms of the price, atmosphere, activities and location, trust me. The administrators are so friendly and helpful to us. I booked here just 1 week before the courses starting, but they arranged everything as I desired. Classes are conducted at most 6 students, that means you’ll have an opportunity to practice speaking a lot. Teaching method is perfectly suitable. I’ve got so much vocabulary though it’s still 3 days I spent. My teacher is great, too. They provide welcome lunch, boat trip for free. You will not be alone. What’s more, you can enter Hermitage Museum for free with a student card! EDUCA so much exceeds my expectation.
