Russian course

Learn Russian from zero, one short lesson at a time.

A Russian trail organised by CEFR level, from your first words to C2. Each lesson takes about five minutes; review brings every word back at the right time, and you practise speaking out loud with feedback.

The Cyrillic alphabet has its own practice, so reading is never the thing that stops you.

The free plan has no card and no end date.

  • A trail by level
  • Review at the right time
  • Pronunciation, word by word
  • Conversation with AI
  • Stories and reading

The course

What the Russian course includes

  • A trail by level

    Short units from A0 to C2. An onboarding question places you at the right point, and the next lesson opens when you finish the last one.

  • Review at the right time

    Words from your lessons become flashcards, and spaced repetition brings each one back just before you would forget it.

  • Pronunciation, word by word

    Read a sentence aloud and get a 0–100 score for accuracy, fluency, prosody and completeness, with each word coloured by how close it came.

  • Conversation with AI

    Role Play puts you in everyday scenes, and the voice tutor talks with you and gives feedback after each turn.

  • Stories and reading

    Short texts at your level, with audio, to read and listen to what you have just learned.
