Our GCSE classes provide comprehensive exam preparation, covering all the topics in the Russian GCSE curriculum. We also focus on advanced vocabulary and grammar to help you achieve the best possible results.
Based on your level of proficiency in Russian, our teachers will suggest one or two years of study. If you're a beginner, you can start with one of our children's classes to establish foundational language skills. After your first free lesson, our teachers will discuss all available options with you.
We advise new students to enroll in our group classes for a collaborative learning experience, but we recognise that this isn't always feasible. If you prefer personalised one-on-one learning or cannot attend scheduled group classes, we can arrange weekly private tuition that accommodates your schedule.
We're thrilled to share that 100% of our GCSE students received either Grade 9 or Grade 8, the highest grades possible, during the 2020-2021, 2021-2022, and 2022-2023 academic years. Congratulations to all of our students on their incredible achievements!

In our A-Level classes, we provide complete coverage of the curriculum, including all themes, topics, and exams, as well as a literary analysis of a book and film. Our teachers will also assist you in completing the Independent Research Project, which is essential for your speaking exam.
Depending on your proficiency in Russian, our teachers may recommend either a one- or two-year study plan. While many students opt for our group classes, we also offer private lessons that can be scheduled to your needs.
Taking an additional subject outside of school can significantly increase your chances of getting into top universities. It's an excellent way to demonstrate your extracurricular study! An A-Level qualification in a foreign language will make your CV stand out, providing you with a great advantage in your future career.
Our students performed exceptionally well during the 2020-2021, 2021-2022, and 2022-2023 academic years, with all achieving at least a grade B and 94% receiving an A* or A. These results are sure to impress university admission officers!

Our online courses for adults are designed to provide an in-depth understanding of the Russian language. You can expect a personalised learning experience with our tutors who will tailor your lessons according to your specific needs, ensuring that you achieve your language learning goals.
Our Beginner Course is perfect for those who are new to learning Russian and want to gain foundational skills in reading, writing, and speaking. As you progress through the course, you'll be introduced to new grammar and vocabulary that steadily increase in complexity.
After completing our Beginner Course or having reached a moderate level of proficiency in Russian, you can continue your studies with our Intermediate Course. Our goal is to help you reach fluency by providing engaging and challenging lessons.
Successfully completing our Intermediate Course opens up the possibility of starting GCSE private tuition or joining one of our A-Level group classes. Keep in mind that the Russian A-Level is more difficult than the GCSE and may require two years of study to attain optimal results. However, if getting a Russian language qualification is not a priority for you, you can continue with our Adult Courses.

For children who are already familiar with the Russian language, we offer eight specialised classes to choose from. Our teachers will assist you in selecting the most suitable class based on your child's age and fluency level.
If your child is new to the Russian language, our RFL classes are the ideal starting point. These classes provide a strong foundation in reading, writing, and speaking at an intermediate level.
If you're looking for a more customised learning experience, we offer weekly private tuition that targets your child's specific learning goals. You can choose from 30-minute, 60-minute, and 90-minute classes at times that suit your child's schedule.
By studying in our children's classes, older students will attain the necessary knowledge and skills to advance to our GCSE class and receive a Pearson (Edexcel) GCSE qualification.
