Welcome to the Ruenigma reading community! Before looking at our scheduled Reading Groups, please note that regardless of the marked level of proficiency, we only read non-adapted Russian literary works at our Reading Club. And it's totally doable if you follow our instructions that you receive one week prior to each session.
In other words, the language of every chosen literary work will be sophisticated enough for a native speaker, and simultaneously fully comprehensible (thanks to our teaching techniques!) for all our students. And please, don't be put off if the work, that you'd like to read with us, is marked higher than you assume your level might currently be - you will have your group instructor's email to dispel all your confusion.
It also should be mentioned, that the duration and number of the sessions, dedicated to a particular literary work, depend rather on the number of explanations involved and the complexity of the author's style than on the length of the work.
As always, all our sessions are recorded to share the video copies with those who've booked, but cannot make it for some reason.
And last but not least - upon the successful completion of students' participation in a group, they are issued digital certificates, shareable on all social networks, to confirm and celebrate their achievement, i.e. reading a Russian literary work in the native language. (Sorry if we repeat ourselves, we just think it's really cool!)
So, please take a look at our schedule, send us your request if something's hooked your mind, and we'll be delighted to see you at our sessions!
