Hello, my name is Joshua. I have been fascinated by Russia ever since I was a kid. I always found it strange that my history teachers would just skip over Russian history, this lead me to learn more about it on my own. The more I learned about Russian history and culture the more I wanted to know more. Now that I’m older and have the discipline to do so, I want to learn the Russian language. I have never been good at learning any language, and I know that Russian is a hard language to learn. So I know that this is going to be difficult for me to learn but I’m no stranger to hard work. Hopefully I will learn more here than I have been able to learn on my own.
