Basic Russian Complete Course: Cassette/Book Package (Living Language Complete Courses Cassette Edition)

Speak Russian with confidence in just 6 weeks!

Living Language Russian Complete Course is a step-by-step guide to the basics of Russian conversation and grammar. This revised course uses the highly effective speed-learning method developed by U.S. government experts to teach foreign languages to overseas-bound servicemen and diplomats.

40 lessons on two 90-minute cassettes
Begin with simple words and phrases and progress to more complex expressions. Just listen and repeat after the native speakers. Only Russian is spoken on the recordings, so you learn naturally, the way you learned English. The accompanying Russian Coursebook includes the English translations.

Russian Coursebook
The pocket-size book contains all the translated phrases from the recorded lessons, plus additional vocabulary, detailed explanations, and quizzes.

The book also features verb charts with all tenses included and a comprehensive summary of Russian grammar.
