The teachers at Durbe are extremely experienced, lessons are well thought out. The school is great, the staff are helpful & knowledgeable. The Shared Flat was great as well – everything worked, the Internet was fast and TV had Russian programs. Course itself was amazing & I can’t wait to come back sometime in 2019.

I really like the type of teaching here in Durbe since it is very interactive, students and teachers have an ongoing dialogue. I chose Riga because I heard that it is a beautiful city and because it is a much safer environment than Russia. My impression of the city is wonderful: I really love its architecture, the old buildings, the history, and every part is different and you get different feelings in each part of the town.

I took Standard Russian course and it was well structured and I learned a lot! I particularly enjoyed staying with my Russian host family!

I had a very pleasant time learning Russian at Russian Language Academy Durbe. I can already see an enormous progress after only 2 weeks spent here. All my teachers were very friendly and helpful, always willing to help me improve my Russian. I have also met many interesting students. Riga is surprisingly beautiful! I might not have expected that before.

If I had had the time, I would have stayed another week for sure! I had a very nice stay in Riga and I was happy to spend my time at Durbe. Everything was well-organized, I had a very nice and helpful teacher and learned a lot. I got the most out of my one-week stay and it’s definitely because of you! Спасибо большое!
