Reading and Writing for Heritage Speakers of Russian

2.0-3.0 credits · Undergraduate

Intended for students who speak grammatically correct Russian but do not know Russian grammar and have not learned to read or write Russian well (or have not learned written Russian at all). May be taught slightly faster or slower in a given year, depending on the needs and interests of the students. Two classes a week teach writing and grammar and include related reading. These classes are required, and the students who take them receive 2 credit hours. The third (optional) class teaches reading and discussion, and grants an additional credit hour. When taken for 3 credits, the course satisfies the foreign language requirement in the College of Arts and Sciences. Detailed description at russian.cornell.edu.
