Russian Language Classes
Nov 2008
I am a Russian speaking Mum who has two smalls kids and an English
speaking husband. I am trying to get my 4.5 yr old daughter to speak
Russian, but I am failing. Does anyone know of a Russian class for
kids or may be someone will be interested in getting together a few
kids with similar situation and sharing a private teacher?

Please come to the Berkeley Russian School. You can look at the web
site www.berkeleyrussianschool.org or call the director Yelena
Glikman at (510)526-8892. There are a lot of families with kids
similar in age to yours where only one parent is a native Russian
speaker. Classes meet on Wednesdays in the afternoon and Saturday
mornings.

I just received the thrilling news that I can go to Russia to adopt my
new son in April.
Since I'll be stuck there for more than a month, we won't be home till
late May, which
means there's no point in enrolling him in school this year anymore.
Keeping in mind
that he doesn't speak English (or will just be learning then) what
camps would you
recommend? He's also had less schooling than American kids, so it can't
be anything
involving academics, either. I live in Oakland, work in Berkeley.
Please drop me a line
by email. Thanks so much.

Berkeley Russian School http://www.berkeleyrussianschool.org/
runs summer camps in Russian. Russian Center of SF on Suttter
and Divisadero offers classes & enrichment activities
(academic, dance, etc.) in Russian.

Any suggestions for tutors or courses for a Russian language
refresher course? UC Extension no longer offers Russian, and UC
has only daytime classes, 4x weekly. I'm in Berkeley. Thanks.

A few years back I was trying to find the same thing. I called
the Departemtn of Slavic Languages at Cal and they had a list
of grad students who tutor. If I were you I would give them a
call and ask. I got to work with a native speaker and she
lived in the UC Village so it was really fun and convenient.

I'm seeking Russian language classes (or possibly a tutor for 2 adults) for
adults in the East Bay (used to be available thru UC Extension and Albany
adult school, but no longer). Thanks!-

A few years ago I sought the same & contacted the Department of Slavic Languages
and Literatures at UCB. They maintain a list of graduate students (many of whom are
native speakers of Russian) who are available for tutoring. I found a great tutor and
brushed up on my Russian conversational skills after many years of neglect. Strastvuyte!
