learned a lot. Especially the combination of lessons and communication with the host family was very good. Balance between different aspects is very good. More stress is on grammar and conversation, than on reading and writing, which I consider a good balance.
You offered the most interesting programme in comparison with other schools. I was very happy the school organised the trip to Novgorod. It would have been great if also more activities were organised, but I understand that I stayed in St. Petersburg during “very hot saison”.
I can recommend take lessons in the ProBa Language school very much. I could advise you to stay with a host family, as this will help you a lot to learn how to speak Russian.

ProBa has excellent teachers, materials, facilities and location. The individual classes were well placed and enjoyable with interesting contemporary topics and the school had a convivial atmosphere. St. Petersburg is a fantastic city and however much time here won’t be enough to enjoy it all.
My host family. I thought that Irina was an excellent hostess. She was friendly, prepared everything well and spent time talking with me in Russian!

The students are SO happy with their time in St. Petersburg. They fell in love with St. Petersburg and said that everyone — their families, their teachers and you were so helpful and kind. They had only wonderful things to say. That is a huge compliment to you all. I was astonished by how much their Russian improved! Thanks again and we will definitely plan this again. L.Roby
