options for self-study of Russian

[John Langran]

Dear Malavika

Your friend might like to try the Ruslan Russian CDRoms. I suggest the first 
lesson of Ruslan 2, which is a free download from www.ruslan.co.uk/demos.htm

> Hello all,

> I have a friend in Austin, Texas who has taken an intensive Russian course
> through the Monterey Institute a few years ago (beginner level), but would
> like to continue studying the language.  His problem is time.  He has a
> demanding work schedule that requires him to travel a lot, so he can't
> commit to a class or intensive program.  He wonders if getting a private
> tutor, who could work within his schedule, is a good idea.  I'm also
> wondering if there are other options -- online courses, for example -- or
> books that would help him continue studying Russian on his own.  He's a
> committed student, but just simply does not have the time for traditional
> modes of language study.  Thanks for your input and feel free to reply off
> the list, if you wish.
