The course groupings and material selection are based on a child’s age/grade, language fluency (speaking, reading and writing skills), independence, maturity of thought and level of motivation to study Russian. Please refer to the chart below to assess what group best fits your child. As our teachers get to know the students better, they might make a recommendation for alternate group placement in order to optimize your child's learning and class/group dynamics. It is our goal to place each student in the group that is right for that child and help them flourish in their language acquisition and development.
