Courses
Regular Courses
Classes are held two days a week (i.e. 4hrs. per week). Each term lasts 2.5 months (42 hrs.)
Semi-private Courses:
Semi-private classes are held two days a week (i.e. 4 hrs. per week) and consist of a minimum number of 3 students.
Placement
Individuals already familiar with the Russian language can evaluate their knowledge by taking a placement test. The placement test consists of a written exam (including grammar and reading comprehension), plus an oral exam categorized based on various proficiency levels. Since this exam does not cover all the aspects related to each proficiency level, it provides learners with a rough estimate of their language abilities.
Class Size
Class sizes for different levels are as follows:
Basic Levels: 7 - 18 students
Intermediate and Advanced Levels: 6 - 14 students
Registration
Adult applicants at least 14 years of age can attend classes either based on the results of their placement tests or from the beginning level, i.e. RKI-1. Applicants need to refer to one of the ILI branches in order to get the registration form. Those who are willing to take a placement test will be interviewed on the specified date by education experts in that branch, after which they can complete their registration. The rest of the applicants (i.e. those who do not require a placement test) will do their registration on the specified date.
Evaluation
Exam | Objective | No. of Questions | Date | Duration |
Short class quizzes | Constant readiness of learners | 5 Written Q + 5 Oral Q | Every 7th session | 10 min. |
Final Exams | Review of the lessons taught | 50 M/C Q + Oral section | End of each term | 60 min. + 15 min. |
At each level, the total grade is comprised of 40% final exam plus 60% class activity.
