- Audio file of a lesson for a course "Russian Language: Real Breakthrough" for a B1 Level. Check your listening comprehension and learn even more (on the topic, with vocabulary and exercises) by booking a lesson with me on Italki https://www.italki.com/yulia.stepanova
- Synchronised swimming is a sport in which Russia has a dominant place. Russian girls win almost all competitions thanks to their perfect synchronyzation, beauty and difficult tricks. But what about men? Until a few years ago this was a sport only for women. I am presenting an interesting topic to discuss stereotypes in sports.
- You will work on your vocabulary by expanding within the same family of words . You will be able to form nouns from verbs with suffixes -ание, -ение (that is very close to English "ing" - плавать swim -> плавание swimming and you will learn all adjectives with suffix -шний (завтрашний tomorrow's etc.) And in this way it will be much easier to create new Russian words!
- You will remember conjugations of verbs like тренироваться train, соревноваться compete, завоевать win, добиться get, obtain;
- We will try to interview each other, imagining you are an athlete or a journalist.
