Career Goals: what do you plan to do with your fluency in Russian? To teach English as a Second Language in Saint Petersburg
What attracted you to the Russian Flagship Program?
It’s a unique approach to teaching students the Russian language.
What’s the best aspect?
It is wonderfully immersive! The classes are five days a week and it truly makes you feel immersed in the language because you are actively speaking, reading, and writing it five days a week. Plus the professors are awesome! The overall support throughout the class makes you feel welcomed!
Why is fluency in Russian important to you?
I would like to be fluent in Russian because it is my partner’s first language along with her family’s first language. Ever since I have met her I have loved the Russian culture from the books, movies, and literature to especially the food and customs of the culture.
