Local area
Over the last years, Moscow has proved why it is the capital of Russia and also one of the most interesting places for economic growth. This city boasts a stunning contrast of modern architecture and imposing Stalinist buildings. In combination with the Red Square, where the Kremlin is located, the huge variety of activities and stunning viewpoints will make your trip an unforgettable one.
Yet nowadays, Moscow is a 21st century capital; a fast-paced 24-hour metropolis - especially when you are a nightlife lover, this place is providing you with loads of clubs and bars. Like Saint Petersburg, Moscow also offers his beauty by night!
Exam options
TRKI exam is an official state testing system created in the 1990s to assess foreign students’ command of Russian. Ever since it has been mandatory for international students who aim at being enrolled in Russian universities. The TBU/TEU/TRKI certificates are also widely recognised by major Russian employers and will enhance your CV should you be pursuing a career in Russia. The six levels (ТЭУ, ТБУ, ТРКИ-1, ТРКИ-2, ТРКИ-3, ТРКИ-4) correspond to CEFR. The language skills are tested in all aspects, e.g. Grammar and Vocabulary, Speaking, Listening, Reading, and Writing. TRKI exams are challenging and tend to be more academic than communicative and thus require specific preparation.
We recommend at least 10 individual lessons to prepare for any TRKI exam on top of our standard group classes or other general Russian course. The preparation course includes going over the mock exam with your tutor, eliciting the strong and weak points and targeting the latter. Statistically, the most challenging part of the exam is writing. There are techniques and methods to adjust the student’s language skills to the exam requirements and make a student aware of the exam structure, procedure, and other pragmatic issues.
Additional information
Theory and practice should go hand-in-hand. To ensure that you improve your skills and are able to apply them in real life, Liden & Denz offers students a rich activity programme of free or affordable events. The activities range from a classic excursion trough one of Moscow's museums to Friday vodka parties.
