The course is well done as a general introduction to the language. However, it is implied you are somehow familiar at least with the Russian alphabet, which is not a common thing for beginners. Olga, the teacher, speaks slowly enough to let the words sink into your brain and the written text gives you enough information to follow the explanation without getting distracted. My only complain is regarding the use of Swedish sentences in the middle of the explanations: I used the lessons to refresh my memory, being actually on almost a B1 level, but for a true beginner it would be rather confusing to distinguish between the two languages. I hope there will be a new set of lessons, I will definitely follow them!

This is an iTunes U course to learn a language. Therefore you need to have an excellent sound in the videos. This is not the case. Sorry!
