Long description:

?????! Building on Your Foundations in Russian is an innovative intermediate course that seamlessly blends rigorous grammar instruction with engaging and functional communicative class activities.



The course revisits topics typically covered in introductory courses, allowing learners to consolidate and expand their foundational knowledge. A blend of cultural insights, reading, listening, and viewing exercises enrich students? cultural understanding. By presenting a range of examples from a variety of contexts, topics, and genres, students gain a broad and deep understanding of the nuances of Russian. Designed for those progressing beyond the basics, ?????! leverages a core vocabulary of 1,500 words and strategically expands it by an additional 2,500 essential words, employing a color-coded system for ease of learning. By the end of the course students will understand up to 70-80% of words in common
usage.



The ?????! Building on Your Foundations in Russian course consists of two volumes, each with nine chapters, containing everything students and instructors need for a dynamic exploration of Russian at the intermediate level. A companion website with a downloadable workbook, glossary, vocabulary files, and audio and video resources brings the course to life. The blended and modular format makes it easy for instructors to adapt the material to their learning goals and timetabling constraints.



"With ever-changing methods and approaches to teaching foreign languages ? from proficiency-oriented, to project-based, to open-architecture modules, to transformational teaching ? students always need a strong toolkit for building on their foundations, especially for languages with such intricate morphological and syntactical structures as Russian. This book combines crisp and nuanced applied linguistics with a truly communicative approach, while also featuring a rich socio-cultural component. Close attention is paid to word formation, which promotes the development of reading comprehension capability. Language material is organized and introduced as a set of working tools ready to be used and reused for different topics. All of this and much more makes this textbook a unique resource for a wide range of learners and teachers ? from undergraduates to graduate and professional students. In addition, ?????! Building on Your Foundations in Russian can serve as a hands-on teaching tool for graduate courses on methodologies of teaching Russian and applied linguistics. It represents a helpful resource for Russian instructors beginning their teaching career, as well as for independent study."


Irina DolgovaSr Lector II Russian Slavic Languages & Literatures, Yale University, USA



"?????! Building on Your Foundations in Russian is a title that reflects the volume?s insightful, well-measured, and stimulating progress through the salient properties of the Russian language. The textbook credits the learners with an ability to grasp the intricacies of grammar and offers a thorough and lucid linguistic commentary without being either overwhelming or simplistic. A selection of thematic dialogues and oral exercises allows for a diverse communicative practice, while samples of authentic texts and the authors? rich notes on culture and usage highlight the language as a historical and social entity."
