Student information

Russian Language Academy BORN is located in the heart of the capital of Latvia - Riga. Just across the street there is the National Opera House in one direction and the central train and bus station in another, a block away is the central building of the University of Latvia, across the park is the Old Town.

Your teachers: At the Russian Language Academy BORN in Riga, students hit the jackpot with skilled and patient teachers. They get a double dose of expertise and understanding, making the learning journey both effective and enjoyable. It's like having language mentors who not only know their stuff but also make the process as smooth as a Russian ballet performance.

Studying Russian in small classes (3-5 students) brings a bunch of perks:

Personalized Attention: Smaller classes mean more one-on-one time with the teacher. You get personalized guidance and can address your specific learning needs.

Active Participation: With fewer students, everyone gets a chance to actively participate. It's like a language jam session where you're not just a spectator but a key player in the linguistic orchestra.

Comfortable Environment: A cozy setting fosters a comfortable learning environment. It's like having your own language oasis where you can freely explore and make mistakes without feeling lost in the crowd.

Better Interaction: Small classes encourage better interaction among students. It's not just about listening to the teacher; it's about engaging in meaningful conversations with classmates, creating a more immersive learning experience.

Faster Progress: With focused attention and active participation, progress tends to speed up. It's like taking the express lane to language proficiency, making the learning journey more efficient and enjoyable!

Lee United Kingdom 05/08/2013 ✓ Booked with LanguageBookings.com
Although I was the only student due to the poor weather, I was made to feel very welcome and given all the attention that I needed. I opted for the intensive training which gave me a real opportunity to progress over the week. The tutors were very friendly and I cannot believe how quickly the time went, it didn't feel like study at all!

You select the option of the type of accommodation you want (You do not have to select the dates here if they are the same as the course - they are automatically selected).
After the Accommodation, you have another option,  that of TRANSFER. This option allows you to book a transport that will pick you up at the airport and will take you to your residence or host family.

Once you have selected all these options, on your right hand side, you are going to see a summary of your reservation with all the information about the course and the accommodation, together with their prices. Also, the deposit you have to pay will be displayed there. You just have to press the Orange Button that says BOOK NOW and this will take you to another page to enter your personal details. When you are booking you only have to pay the little deposit. After that, we will contact the school and request your booking. When your booking is confirmed by the school or host, they will hold your place until the your booking balance is paid in full. The same applies for the accommodation. You can pay with credit card, a PayPal account or, for most countries, bank transfer; as you prefer. This deposit you pay now will be discounted from the total price. The rest of the money will not have to be paid until 15 days before your course starts. In any case, you will be receiving emails about your deposit payments; and also, reminders about the rest of the money when it needs to be paid.
What are the benefits of booking through LanguageBookings.com?
Our discount: When the school offers it, you get the LanguageBookings discount and pay less than the school's own price list. You will see it on the school and course pages.

Help in your language: We answer your questions in your language, before and after you book.

We deal with the school for you: If the price, dates or accommodation change, we sort it out with the school on your behalf.

Book with a deposit only: The deposit is part of the course price, not an extra charge. If you pay by card, it is only authorised when you book and charged once the school confirms your place. If the school cannot confirm it, you are not charged, or the deposit is refunded in full.
When do the courses start?
The start dates of intensive and standard language courses are generally flexible. If you have some basic knowledge of the language, you will be able to start any Monday of the year at almost any school. If you are a total beginner, courses usually start once or twice a month.
You should be aware that language schools have more students in July and August than during any other time of year, which means that course fees, housing prices and the overall cost of living are often more expensive during this time. If you would like to book a course in July or August, you should do so very early: schools have limited spots and might be booked well in advance for the high season. Your chances to get your preferred housing type are also greater if you book your course early. Housing options near the school are especially difficult to secure in the summer and tend to fill up quickly.
Language courses during the low season (September to June) are not only less expensive, but also have smaller classes. If you are able to wait to take your courses during this time you will pay less for your courses, and  you may even receive better housing, since demand is much lower. Please, review this information within the language course details on the language school page.
How do I know if a place is available?
 You can find the availability status underneath each price on the school / host page. Nevertheless, if you submit a reservation request and your place is not available, the deposit paid will be 100% refunded.
