“If I hadn’t joined the club, I would probably still be at the same ‘Duolingo level’ and definitely not at a speaking level with any confidence.”

Point A:

Bart is from Belgium and needs Russian for work. In his field of construction, many colleagues are Russian-speaking, and he wants to communicate with them professionally.

He relied on gestures and a translator, which often failed to convey his messages accurately.
Beyond work, Bart also dreams of traveling to Russia and other former Soviet countries.
He started from zero.

 He tried Duolingo but found it ineffective—it taught only words without explaining grammar, rules, or how to speak. His vocabulary was minimal, and he lacked the ability to form sentences or hold a conversation.

Point B:

Bart can now hold proper conversations in Russian. He effectively communicates with colleagues, explaining what needs to be done, and they understand him.
He worked on a project where he used Russian daily, confidently giving instructions and ensuring smooth collaboration.

His language skills not only improved his work efficiency but also brought him closer to his goal of traveling and experiencing Russian-speaking countries more deeply.

“Now I’m able to understand people when they speak. Having lessons every week where I can give feedback and say that I’m having problems with some rules helped a lot.”

Point A:

Alex is from Canada and he needed Russian to successfully negotiate and expand into the Russian market, as well as to strengthen his relationship with his Russian-speaking fiancée and future children.

Alex had a decent vocabulary but struggled with grammar—he couldn’t conjugate verbs correctly or form proper sentences. In conversations, he constantly mixed Russian and English and had difficulty understanding native speakers.

He initially tried learning with Duolingo but often skipped lessons, as the app only helped with memorizing new words and didn’t address his issues with grammar and speaking.

Point B:

Now Alex understands Russian speakers when they talk.
Hecan translate his interviews into Russian.
His vocabulary has expanded, and he now knows how to properly conjugate verbs and build correct sentences.

Unlike before, he no longer skips lessons and remains committed to his studies.
With his improved language skills, Alex is now better prepared to handle business negotiations in Russian and communicate more naturally with his fiancée, making his personal and professional life much more fulfilling.
