Thread: English Language Classes in Moscow

Hello,

Could you recommend me decent English classes in Moscow where teachers are native speakers. Now I've moved to Moscow and can afford things like this. My command of English is intermediate.

Well, I've been studying here http://www.bkc.ru/ since december..
There are teachers from USA, Australia, UK and from others country of Europe.. and from Russia.

And what about LanguageLink? Has anyone positive experience about this language school?

Thru the teaching "grapevine" I've heard a few negative reports, and a few positive reports about LanguageLink. But these were several years ago, and I seem to remember that the negative reports were "internal", meaning between the teachers and directors... but not from the students.

BKC has a good reputation.

Compare costs, and ask each school if you can try a few "trial" lessons, before signing a contract. Then you can find whether you like a particular teacher, and if you are comfortable with the school. You may find that you like the LanguageLink teacher more than you like the BKC teacher.

In my opinion the 2 most important factors are whether the school is stable and has been in operation at least for several years... and whether you are comfortable with your teacher.

There are a few other schools I know of, but BKC and LanguageLink have been around for a long time. Be very careful about "new" schools that have only been open a year or two.
