Russian for Beginners — free demo lesson
How it works

Most “free lessons” only show you a screenshot. Do these ones.

Two topics, taken whole and in the order the course teaches them: watch Victoria explain the rule on video, work through the vocabulary and grammar, listen to the audio, take the quizzes and finish with the writing task. Everything is checked instantly — the same engine and the same answer keys enrolled students get. Your progress stays in this browser, so you can stop and come back.

Sounds л / р and the Russian noun

A topic from the very beginning of the A1 course — taken whole, nothing cut out.

  • Watch Victoria explain the sounds л and р on screen
  • Repeat after the speaker with the text in front of you
  • Tell masculine, feminine and neuter nouns apart — and prove it in the quiz

In this lesson you will learn how to pronounce sounds: л р. We will talk about noun and its gender. And you will practice building sentences following the speech pattern: Это друг, а это подруга.
