Established in 1995, CREF is not only well-known for the study of Russian in Russia, but also for studying English, French and Chinese. Managed by Europeans, CREF speaks your language, meets the strict standards of high quality education, effectively organizes your lessons and guarantees a warm welcome to its students. CREF helps you organize the course you want on your linguistic stay: we offer excellent Russian lessons and accommodation packages chosen for their outstanding quality/price ratio. CREF guides you through the necessary steps to come to Russia: from the invitation, visa, and registration in Moscow. For those whose primary goal is to communicate in Russian, CREF focuses their programs on useful language, giving you the necessary skills to quickly start speaking Russian. CREF creates and publishes its own textbooks which have become indispensable in the field of Russian foreign language lessons. Our programs are developed according to Council of Europe criteria and up-to-date regulations. In addition, our programs are allowed for the preparation of testing and official diplomas of linguistic competence in Russian (TORFL/ТRKI). Our teachers are highly qualified and experienced, and will share their passion for the Russian language to you.
