Easter Revision Courses

We offer revision courses for students preparing for exams in the third term:

The Easter revision course program is agreed directly with you, depending on:

  • what year you're in
  • which University you're studying at
  • the areas where you have particular difficulty or feel least confident

We contact your university directly to get information on the level they examine you at (i.e. how hard your exams are going to be!), the specific areas you have covered and the exam format. We then put together a course to cover the necessary elements.

In addition, and to break up the slog, we arrange a cultural program with excursions (destinations to be agreed depending on where you want to go and whether or not you have been to Moscow before) and cultural elements (film, song, literature etc).
