Svoimi Slovami, Russian Language School

My experience with this school has been nothing short of exceptional! My children attended this school for a significant period, and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome. From the moment they stepped through the doors, they were welcomed into a vibrant, nurturing environment that made learning both enjoyable and effective. One of the standout aspects of this school is the quality of its teaching staff. The teachers are truly wonderful—passionate, dedicated, and incredibly skilled. Each teacher brings a unique flair to their lessons, and it’s clear that they care deeply about their students' growth and well-being. Whether it was in Russian language classes, art projects, or history lessons, the educators went above and beyond to inspire and educate. The overall atmosphere at the school is fantastic. There’s a palpable sense of enthusiasm and positivity that permeates the environment. The school fosters a community where students feel valued, supported, and excited about learning. This supportive atmosphere undoubtedly contributed to our children's love for school and their eagerness to participate in various activities. We will certainly be returning and would highly recommend this school to other families seeking a dynamic and enriching educational experience for their children.

Wonderful place for kids! Their outdoor summer program is amazing! This is exactly how summer should look like for kids - playing in the forest, roaming the creeks and climbing the trees. Highly recommend!

Incredible school: son many great activities for kids: Russian language, art, theatre, history and many many more! And their camps are the best in the Area. My kid was so happy to attend camp "little hikers", they explored different hikes around Bay area, discussed how to survive in nature and found great friends! Highly recommend!

Our son had an amazing time at the camp. The counselors were attentive and caring. Each day was filled with a variety of exciting and educational activities. Everything was thoughtfully organized with great love and care for the children.

My son has been taking different classes at this center. Russian language, japanese, history, online and in person. We have an excellent experience with all of them, would definitely recommend

I would say, this school is not just a regular language school, but more an educational phenomenon. Not only it’s an easy going, warm and comfortable place to learn, but an incubator for greater creativity and innovation. The school’s community is actively in contact with best lecturers and ambassadors of Russian culture - scientists, directors, animators, actors and etc. I can’t be more happy with the fact that my daughter has an opportunity to learn and appreciate Russian culture through "living" language and have direct access to outstanding teachers. It is definitely a game changer for our family. My daughter has been taking online and onsite classes on animation, biology, did a winter camp, attended several events and totally enjoyed all of these activities.

My kids are attending their second year at the Svoimi Slovami school. Its an amazing place with an incredibly versatile approach to Russian language and learning as a whole. Kids learn not only the rules of the language but are fully immersed in creative projects, quests, discussions, getting to know the literature, culture and history of Russia. This is truly the only way that the language can be fully absorbed and retained when you don’t live in Russia. Kids love it and we as parents do as well!
