Participants of language schools at NARFU on their experience of studying with us:

  • "I made a lot of both Russian and international friends in Arkhangelsk. I learn a lot of new things, including both words, grammar and cultural phenomenon’s. I’m sure it would have been possible to learn the words on my own, but the experience I gained from this summer school is truly unique. What I think really matters is that I now feel more motivated to learn Russian so that I can improve the fluency of my conversations the next time I meet my friends in Arkhangelsk. It has been a quite short course, and it is hard to cover all the topics needed to master Russian in just two weeks. However, I now have a lot of people who want to help me overcome these challenges."

    Shan Amin (Norway), Full-time BSc. Biological Chemistry - Biotechnology student University of Stavanger

  • "Thank you very much for organizing the school and helping me throughout the course. I have very pleasant memories from participating in the winter school and getting to know you and the other participants. Of course I want to continue studying such a beautiful Russian language and I wish that I had the opportunity to come to your university and to Arkhangelsk, because this city is definitely a very beautiful place."

    Büşra Doner, Turkey

  • "I hope I can come to Arkhangelsk and take some more courses at your university.

    Jessica Frickstedt, Sweden

  • "The Winter School of Russian Language and Culture is such a rewarding and incredible experience. Thank you so much for your work! Please let me know the next time you hold a Russian language school - I think you mentioned one in June? I would love to attend."

    Hannah Zimmerman, USA

  • "I was very pleased with the program, the mix of lecture and cultural and social events. The mixture for me as a beginner was good in the sense that I could have some time to "breathe" between the lessons and process everything. My teachers were good, friendly and likable."

    Ingvild Svestad (Norway), international senior advisor at UiT (Arctic University of Norway), Tromso, Dpt. Of academic affairs

  • "I felt welcome throughout the entirety of the summer school and had no issues with finding my way around town because of how tentative everyone was. There was a wide range of activities as well as events that all added to a great summer school experience."
