The textbook of Russian as a foreign language based on the English language is intended for English-speaking students who master the first certification level of Russian language proficiency, the emphasis is on the development of oral and written skills, understanding of the Russian culture of communication.
A very good tutorial. I was especially impressed by the selection of illustrations and dialogues. I use it for children from 7 years old who grew up in blended families abroad. I am constantly looking for new materials for my subject. I haven't found a better tutorial yet.
I agree - the book is wonderful. I have been teaching Russian as a foreign language for a long time. I suffered for many years, because there was no normal literature, according to which it was possible to study with the middle group of children - children 10-15 years old. And here, here's a book by Khamraeva! Thank you very much ! It is pleasant to hold the book, good illustrations ... The program is composed competently and correctly. I advise everyone who teaches or teaches.
The only normal RCT textbook for children. I was afraid that it would be annoying that all the instructions and explanations were in English, but the children even like it, since almost everyone is now learning English. The book is good: illustrations, texts, dialogues, exercises .... The grammar is a little difficult to explain, but still explained. Recommended for children over 12 years old, but I use it even with children 8-9 years old, everything is ok. Thanks to the author for the book!
