This will allow students to gain confidence in their ability to express themselves in Russian and improve their overall fluency in the language.
In addition to improving their oral communication skills, the class will also focus on revising and practicing the Russian case system. Students will continue to learn about the different cases and how to use them correctly in various situations. This will include learning how to use the genitive case to express possession, the accusative case for direct objects, and the dative case for indirect objects.
By the end of the course, students should have a more solid understanding of the Russian case system and be able to communicate more fluently in Russian. They should also be able to understand and use a wider range of vocabulary and sentence structures.
