Your beautiful Russian in 14 days
with our express online training for correct and confident pronunciation
We made this training because from our experience we know
Very often Russian-speaking foreigners mistakenly believe that Russian words should be read exactly the way they are written. Surprisingly, even advanced students sometimes are not aware of the existence of the numerous Russian pronunciation rules.
Russian-speaking foreigners are errorly persuaded that the word stress or emphasis in Russian is a chaotic nightmare as it has no rules, which is simply not true. There's a whole system of rules.
Russian-speaking foreigners usually can feel that they have a certain accent, which is the reason they speak timidly or avoid speaking at all.
Even if people learned the phonetic rules at the beginning, they may tend to forget them, getting more and more used to their own, often incorrect, manner of pronunciation.
Even when Russian-speaking foreigners are aware of the issue and are willing to speak Russian more confidently, they still may not know how to improve their pronunciation.
