Students about the course

Ajibola Olanipekun

The city is good, just like every other normal citiy across the world, the landscape is good, the transport system is excellent. The services are relatively cheap compared to other cities. To me, the people are homely and nice, both old and young. I have visited a lot of places, Universal Sports Palace Molot to watch the city’s Basketball team game. I have been to different events, cultural activities, I have been to cafes, karaoke, I have eaten a lot of traditional delicacies like Borsch soup, meat dumplings, etc.

HSE is one of the best Universities in Russia. The Faculty and the International Office are doing a great job: they always pay attention to complaints and do their best to rectify any issue with students. The Dormitory is calm and habitable.

Teachers are all good. But I would say Alexander Narseev is the best. His approach to teaching is perfect for beginners. I learn new words daily and I would say it is an interesting language to learn.

It was a new experience for to learn language abroad. Perm city is too beautiful and I like winter of Russia.

Now we are studying with Daria Panina, and I really like the methodology of her training! Every two weeks you notice your personal progress. I think HSE should have more teachers like her.

Thanks you all, university and dormitory staff!
