I highly recommend the Russian Language Academy BORN. I started my Russian from scratch this summer, and my instructors were professional, effective, and encouraging. This was my first time in Riga, and the team at Russian Language Academy BORN was extremely communicative and accommodating.
I also highly recommend doing a homestay… Read more about Natasha’s experience here.

„I liked the way teachers thought. We worked on things that improved my overall skills in Russian. Talking every day in class Russian only, helped me to become a better listener and speaker. We practiced grammar every day + homework helped to reinforce what we learned in class.
Riga is a beautiful city and has been great exploring the town and using what I learned in class in everyday life. This has been a great experience!”

I spent two weeks in Riga on a Russian language course. It was an unforgettable time. If you have the opportunity, visit beautiful Latvia and its capital. It’s so charming there! My teacher was organized and well-prepared and she always provided extra help when needed. I can’t wait for my next visit to the school and to Riga.
Spędziłem w Rydze na kursie języka rosyjskiego dwa tygodnie. To był niezapomniany czas. Jeśli macie taką możliwość, zwiedzajcie piękną Łotwę i jej stolicę. Jest tam tak urokliwie. Ja nie mogę się doczekać kolejnej wizyty w szkole i w Rydze.

My Russian immersion experience has accentuated my learning, helping me better understand Latvia’s interesting cultural dynamics and approach issues with deeper insights. My experience learning Russian in Latvia has been both challenging and rewarding. However, with the help of my teachers and fellow students, I have improved significantly, and I now feel more confident in my ability to communicate in the language.

Everything at the school and Riga was really great and I have a fun time. It was more than everything I expected. Thank you, Russian Language Academy BORN so much for everything you’ve done, this entire experience was super! ”

My 1-week course with the Academy was highly rewarding and a great opportunity to solidify my knowledge. Especially if you are interested in something more topical, a combination of a general Russian course and one of the Academy’s specialised courses is ideal. The very friendly and competent teachers will take their time to explain complicated aspects of the language and to train real-life communication skills. Moreover, the small size of learning groups and the option for individual lessons allow you to get support and challenges that are really appropriate for your level. Overall it was a great motivation to keep on learning Russian more intensely in the future.”
