- Excellent Program.06/17/15
I wanted to take a few weeks of Russian classes when I went to visit Ukraine in May of 2015. I asked the program a little over a week before my trip if they could setup a teacher for me in Kharkiv. EESA immediately found a professor for me and I was able
to customize the number of classes of I wanted to take. I recommend EESA's short term intensive language program because you provided a quality experience for low cost in a timely manner. Before the program, my Russian was very shallow but now I can have basic conversations. My reading and writing Russian have also drastically improved. My professor was excellent. She was very kind and patient, but also gave me comprehensive Russian lessons that helped me greatly improve my Russian language ability. Learning in Ukraine was a great experience because I got to be exposed to Russian everyday outside of the classroom. My favorite part of the program was the quickness of your program finding me a great professor that really helped me learn so much. I have no complaints about the program. If I have the opportunity in the future, I would like to return to Ukraine.
