    keep on learning Russian

    Hello to all!

    I need some advice in what to do next regarding progressing in my studies of Russian.
    I started to learn Russian last year at my local college. I attended evening clases. This year I also attended evening classes but these are now finished.

    What I should do next? I love the Russian language and I want to progress. Someone recommended me the linguaphone course.

    Some advice will be most wellcome.

    Regards,

    Eva

    This has been repeated many times, but here you go:
    1 Watch Russian films
    2 Take more classes
    3 Talk to us
    4 Listen to Russian music
    5 Self Study
    6 Read russian books (easy ones)
    7 Find Russian penpals

    Not necessarily in that order!

    You forgot the good ol' fashioned "Conduct an online courtship with a Russian you can't talk to." Also get Interlex. Kwatts has put together an impressive set of vocab cards; PM him.
    Заранее благодарю всех за исправление ошибок в моём русском.

    I thought you were saying bollocks to studying at all. Weren't you the one who professed to have magically been given your Russian skills despite slacking off and not studying at all?

    If you're already past DDT's book, I have found Maltzoff's Essentials of Russian Grammar to be a very fun read.
