Dear SEELANGers,
 
Note the deadline for SRAS summer programs is *March 1st*, 2009.
 
SRAS offers Russian as a Second Language (RSL) programs in 7 cities. The
program is designed to deliver a solid curriculum to improve Russian
language skills in grammar, vocabulary, comprehension, phonetics, reading,
and speaking. These courses are for everyone - all levels from beginner to
advanced, and our courses are open to anyone out of high school, not just
current university students. This program is offered in the following 7
cities: Nizhny Novgorod, Novosibirsk, Irkutsk, Vladivostok, Bishkek, Moscow
and St. Petersburg. Read more about the program here:
