Do you want to become an astronaut?
In fact — this is not a joke. All cosmonauts are now obliged to learn the Russian language, since the most important achievements in the field of space research, spacecraft and rocket construction belong to the Russian.
But if, as it were, descend from heaven to earth, and imagine a foreigner who came to study or work in a country with a Russian-speaking population, then the benefit of studying the Russian language is obvious.
What feelings does a person experience in an unfamiliar country, not knowing the language, culture and customs? — Feeling of complete isolation and misunderstanding among strangers.
You want to get a job, but you can not, because you do not speak the language.
Liked the girl, but you do not know how to tell her about it.
There is a good business idea, but because of ignorance of the language there is no way to establish partnerships.
And vice versa:
«I remember a wonderful moment, you appeared before me ..» — you admit the girl in love and her eyes shine with pleasure and surprise.
«Let’s sign a contract profitable for both of them» — you tell the partners and the deal is well concluded.
«I think I can be of use to your company» — you will say at the interview — and successfully pass it.
Your wife is also a foreigner, and she misses having no girlfriends and the opportunity to communicate? — Russian language courses will open the way for her to study and interesting communication.
UNDERSTANDING — that’s what gives the knowledge of Russian to a foreigner. And this is a necessary condition for a happy and successful life in an unfamiliar country.
This is the kind of non-standard, practical approach to the study of the Russian language, the Center for the Study of Foreign Languages »Salam» offers.
The unique methodology of teaching was developed by the teachers of the Center — graduate philologists and specialists in the field of teaching Russian as a foreign language.
