If you want to have real conversations in Russian instead of just studying it, I created a structured 30‑lesson audio course called Russian Conversations Unlocked. I've designed it for adult learners who want to learn to actually communicate with native speakers. You can find more information here.

What should you do next?

Most learners don't struggle because Russian is "too hard."

They struggle because they don't train speaking directly.

  • You can study vocabulary
  • you can memorize Grammar
  • You can listen for hours

But if you don't practice building sentences in real time, you'll still struggle when someone speaks to you.

One of my students once told me:

“I have been studying Russian for a year. In my head I can prepare basic sentences, yet when it comes to actually speaking I ‘chock’.

That's not a knowledge problem.

That’s a training problem.

Your weakest skill determins your conversational level.

4 learn russian skills

And for most learners, that weakest skill is speaking.

That's why I built Russian Conversations Unlocked - a structured 30-lesson audio course designed to train real-time speaking ability step by step.

Hey I'm Ari, a Dutch guy who struggled with languages in school. I failed formal English classes and dropped French and German at the earliest opportunity. Languages just weren’t for me.

But everything changed when I started dating a Russian girl who invited me to meet her non-English speaking parents in Moscow. I had just 3 months to learn Russian.

But traditional methods failed me. Apps, textbooks, courses - nothing worked. Then I realized I'd become fluent in English through movies, games, and real conversations, not studying.

I applied this insight to Russian, focusing on practical communication instead of grammar. The results were immediate. In Moscow, I had meaningful conversations with her family, and soon found myself speaking Russian without thinking about it.

As I shared my journey online, others asked for help. And I created my course Russian Conversations Unlocked. Now over 500 students have transformed their Russian using this same natural immersion approach.
