The expansive world of Russian

Russian is not only spoken in Russia, but also in much of Central Asia including Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan - these are homes to some of the world's most beautiful heritage sites and are great tourist destinations, giving you yet another compelling reason to learn Russian. If you know the language so do the depth and richness of your experience.

Learn a niche language and unlock rare business opportunities

Even though Russian is one of the official languages of the United Nations*, by and large it still remains one of the less popular languages to be taken up as a second language. However, that means knowing it puts you all the more in demand in Russia and Central Asia-related business circles. And with economies growing in these areas knowing even the basics of Russian could really come in handy!
