I decided to give my self this last chanse, if I didn’t improve after three weeks in Russia I would have quit…
I really had a great experience in Derzhavin Institute, very friendly atmosphere, very very good teachers, pacient and cheerful, very well trained in teaching and also nice activities that you can join in the afternoon. was still there and already thinking about coming back the next year even if winter time looked a little « scary » to me.
At the end of my third week I could speak much better and I could finnally feel that something in russian grammar was defenitly learned after many attempts.I would also suggest the « low season » because there is less students and you get more attention, and SPB in winter is difficult but also charming…
I really like this amazing city!
