About Our GCSE and A-Level Russian Exam Preparation

The online tutor offers preparation for the following Pearson Edexcel exams in the UK:

The private tutor prepares study materials based on the Exam Specification and Core Curriculum. They are created using the requirements of the Edexcel Examination Board. The tutor regularly participates in conferences and workshops for continuous professional development.

Nowadays, Russian lessons are delivered in some schools and universities in the UK. Some students follow their GCSE programme only. Others continue perfecting the language and take a Pearson Edexcel A-Level exam.

Before starting the training, students might have less knowledge of certain parts of the language. This is identified before the tuition starts. Many exercises are given to students to consolidate the material they learn at school as well as go over some past assessment papers. This helps them to develop all the necessary skills to show excellent results in the assessment.

What is Included in the Training that We Provide

Although the Cyrillic alphabet may seem difficult to learn. Many people find it fascinating and master it in a few days. Our specially designed exercises will provide the learners with the tools to use the language confidently. This includes correct pronunciation of the words in conversations or written assignments. The materials, that we include in each lesson, are aimed at developing all the necessary skills to become fluent in the Russian language.

Each online lesson is intensive and includes many exercises to learn the basics. This leads to conversational practice and writing. Reading texts will help to understand the main ideas. The bilingual translation is useful to render the meaning of a given text. Writing exercises are a good way of expressing own ideas in a written form using the vocabulary and grammar learnt. A lot of spoken exercises are included in the training to create real-life situations.

About the Russian Language

Russian is spoken not only in Russia and Eastern Europe. According to some sources, millions of people worldwide communicate using it. Belonging to the so-called East Slavic subgroup of the Indo-European family, it has evolved over the decades. As with all languages, in the beginning, it was very different to the one we are having now.

It has undergone some transformations, mainly in its written variant:

First, it was Tsar Peter the Great (1696-1725) who decided to simplify the Russian language by making it easier for people to speak.
Then, in 1755 a scientist, philosopher, and writer Mikhail Lomonosov wrote a book on grammar by changing some rules.
In the 19th century, the famous poet Alexander Pushkin changed the writing rules and introduced new vocabulary.
The last stage of the development of the language was a spelling reform in 1918. At that time, the Cyrillic hard sign at the end of the words was removed from the alphabet.
