1. RUSSIAN LANGUAGE SESSIONS


Natalya Friesen is a school teacher from Russia who moved to Canada in 1999. She has offered to teacher some of our members Russian language. She has had very good success with our first session in the fall of 2007 and a new session will begin early in 2008! Please let us know as soon as possible if you are interested in the lessons. Limited number of students will be accepted.

Each class will be about an one and a half hours in length. In order to help cover the cost of study materials there will be a cost of $25 per student. The classes will likely run until at least Christmas but this will be evaluated further as time goes on.

Classes are intended to be casual, inter-active and of course a lot of fun. If you or any of your family members would be interested in participating please contact Kyle Pereverseff, Director of Timashevsk Relations: bobkyle@hotmail.com or at 403-388-3883.

As a mandate of our Society, to prepare and educate members to be excellent ambassadors, these sessions fall right in line.
