COMMENTS AND OBSERVATIONS ABOUT THE AMERICAN HOME
“I encountered the best Russian language instruction that I have been 
privileged to experience....” –Dr. Nils H. Wessel, Professor of Government, US 
Coast Guard Academy
“I cannot recommend them highly enough...” –Marlyn Miller, PhD candidate, 
Russian History, Brandeis University
"I'm a big supporter of the American Home in Vladimir; You have been doing 
such an amazing job for many years!" –Professor Maia Solovieva, Faculty-in-
Residence, Lecturer in Russian, Oberlin College
“I am extremely impressed by all that I have learned about the program: the 
educational opportunities..., the enthusiasm of the participants, the careful 
planning the American Home staff puts into each participant's experience. In 
the post-Soviet period there are many opportunities for Americans in Russia; I 
find the Serendipity program one of the most exciting” –Dr. Judith E. Kalb, 
Russian Program, University of South Carolina
“Vladimir offers a real opportunity to immerse yourself in Russian language and 
culture. Such immersion can be very frightening at first, and that is why...the 
American Home is such a plus. Here I am given the opportunity to work with 
Russians in an atmosphere that is very familiar, fostering, and comfortable. I 
would certainly recommend it to anyone who wants to experience Russia for 
what it really is...” –Matt Plischke, Miami University (Ohio)
