Customer references

Our employees learned the Russian language from Lyudmila Kotane. Very professional approach! Before the start of the course, Lyudmila assessed the knowledge of each of the students and divided them into groups according to the level of Russian language proficiency. Materials for each level were specially developed – texts, educational, communicative situations, professional dialogues with audio; everything was in line with our set goals. After completing the course, all employees who have completed the training have increased their language proficiency by one level! Thanks! Recommended!

LATVIJAS MOBILAIS TELEFONS SIA

Definitely the best place to learn russian no matter your current russian level and both for individuals and for business/work purposes. Teachers are not only super professional and highly skilled , but also very engaged and eager to find the best approach for everyone. I study russian with my colleagues, we cover the necessary topics for our work as well as improve grammar and enrich our vocabulary. During lessons we not only do various types of tasks, but also talk a lot loudly, interact with eachother and I would say it is also a great teambuilding time for us. And, most importantly – we all feel great results, our skills are improving with each lesson.
Highly recommend!

Latvijas Balzams AS

We have been cooperating with Lyudmila Kotane for over seven years: trained our employees in business Russian and tested the knowledge of foreign languages among candidates. Recently we had a large project requiring us to find more than 200 employees in 4 months for our client and all candidates were tested for knowledge of foreign languages. The Lingua Sphere team has demonstrated excellent professionalism and ability to meet project deadlines. Together we have successfully coped and our client was satisfied.
We definitely recommend cooperation with Lyudmila and her school Lingua Sphere!

Our goals and scope of work were taken into account in these courses.

TWINO SIA

Russian is not the easiest language, but Lyudmila Kotane is a great teacher. Trainings with her are meaningful, helpful and joyful. I am sure you will love them as much I do.
Lyudmila, thank you for being our teacher!

Galantus SIA

The most valuable thing about the course for me is that we immerse in the topics that I use in real business life. It’s very useful to play and practice vocabulary that I immediately implement in my talks with Russian speaking clients. After three months of study, I was able to make a business presentation of our bank’s services for an important potential client. My teacher is an excellent professional and proficient in intensive teaching methods. For me time is the most important resource and, thanks to Lyudmila, I got excellent results in a very short time. 

 Luminor Bank AS

We enjoyed the learning process.

Both theory and practice were part of classroom activities. A lot of dialogues and situations that were discussed were relevant to our work.

FAQ

Potential students of the Language School "Lingua Sphere" can familiarise themselves with frequently asked questions (FAQ) related to the learning process, services, schedule, and other aspects. The answers provided allow for a better understanding of what to expect from language courses and a more informed decision about choosing education.

What language courses does your school offer?

"Lingua Sphere" Language School provides language courses for companies and individuals, on a group or one-to-one basis, as well as language courses for children.

What teaching methods are used?

The choice of teaching methodology primarily depends on the goals of the student(s). However, generally, the main focus is on communicative methodologies. These methodologies allow practical communication in a foreign language from the very first lessons or, for students with existing knowledge of a foreign language, transition them into an active speaking mode.

How long does it typically take to complete one level?

For a thorough mastery of one level of a foreign language, it usually requires around 90 academic hours (45 minutes each). This is for achieving fluency in all four language skills (speaking, writing, listening, and reading) equally. If only specific skills need to be mastered, the course duration may be adjusted accordingly.

What is the cost of language courses? Are there any additional expenses?

The price of language courses may vary depending on the foreign language, the main goal (motivation) of the student, and whether it is group or individual lessons. Typically, there are no additional expenses, and study materials are provided by the school or are separately discussed at the beginning of the course.

Is it possible to have individual lessons or only group sessions?

In the "Lingua Sphere" language school, there are formats available for both individual and group lessons. Additionally, students can enrol in paired sessions (2 students) or small group sessions (3-4 students).
