I Love Russian (Я Люблю Русский Язык) is a modern, illustrated textbook series tailored for international students learning Russian. Designed with a focus on communicational learning, the series currently includes four books and e-books (ePub or PDF):
Each level aligns with the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR), ensuring a standardized learning experience. Every course book is accompanied by extensive original and authentic audio materials, accessible via smartphone or web browser. Written entirely in Russian, these textbooks are ideal for classroom use with groups or individual students. The book for beginners (A1) is also available as an interactive textbook on the Blinklearning platform, ideal for autonomous learners.
We recommend that teachers of Russian using our A1 or A2 textbooks purchase the corresponding teacher’s book. Each teacher’s book provides a structured overview of the student’s book, highlighting new vocabulary, grammar, key phrases, conversational topics, and can-do statements for each lesson to support effective lesson planning. Detailed teaching suggestions are included for every lesson, along with methods for presenting grammar and vocabulary and adaptable strategies for both stronger and weaker student groups.
The A2 teacher’s book additionally includes supplementary materials accessible via QR codes, such as warm-up activities, lead-ins, extra grammar and communication exercises, flashcards, and games. Both teacher’s books also contain answer keys, audio transcripts, grammar references, and a full set of formative lesson tests, as well as mid- and end-of-level assessments.
This illustrated answer booklet provides complete keys to all exercises in the I Love Russian textbooks, making it an essential companion for learners working independently or reviewing course content outside the classroom.
Designed for both self-study students and those wishing to consolidate their knowledge before moving to the next level, the booklet helps reinforce accuracy and boost learner confidence.
“I Love Russian” combines a clear structure with a communicative teaching approach, introducing grammar concepts through meaningful, real-life situations. This method encourages active use of newly learned skills, making language acquisition both practical and enjoyable.
