Best course ever ! I learned most practise words. Большой Спасиба Mark 🙌

Everything I expected from my ideal language course. A calm voice, lots of native speakers, the perfect balance between new information and what you already know, different teaching techniques that make it actually easy to remember the hardest words. Also, Russian grammar is said to be immense but Mark makes you forget it's grammar. You learn it the way a kid learns languages: by copying phrases and adopting the language's patterns without having to study tables. You do get all the information on cases, conjugations and declensions in the end but not before it's become a habit to use them. I remember studying Latin in high school: memorizing one pattern after another so we could recognize all the datives and ablatives in literature. This course does the complete opposite as it eases you into Russian in a very gentle way. The support team is very committed and will solve any question you may have in no time. And of course you can send your exercises and recordings to the native speakers for feedback.

After completing Mark's Russian Made Easy podcast, I was convinced that he was the right teacher to take me through the process. I'm only a couple of weeks in but the course is excellent. I've tried Pimsleur, Rocket Languages, Duolingo and more, but none of them strike the right balance between repetition and actual learning like Russian Accelerator. The sections are split up cleverly and each time I log in, I feel like I'm actually learning things and building on prior concepts and words. It's a tough language, but Mark makes it easier. Five stars

Thanks to this course I now speak Russian. The way you're going to get the most out of it is definitely by taking Mark's advice on construction branching and doing the homework He prescribes after each lesson. Take your time with it. All the lessons are very methodical and well laid out. I've done both the Russian accelerator and Russian accelerator II course. I didn't know a lick of this language at all a year ago. and now I'm pretty much an intermediate speaker And can have basic conversations with some of my co-workers who speak the language. Every time I talk to them they always looked at me surprised like "God damn, how did you learn this? ?!" The best thing about the course is the way he teaches you the grammar.

I have an upcoming stay in a small village in Moldova for a month. I was desperate to learn Russian but found the formats of other programs too complicated and difficult. I needed a program where repetition was possible and word pronunciation is slow enough for me to distinguish the sounds. Russian Accelerator and Russian Made Easy fit that criteria. Starting us off with easy cognates made learning seem easy. Additionally, the Power Phrases help me remember the words and the cumulative review helps get them into long-term memory. I had given up hope of learning Russian until I found this program. Thank you, Mark, for your courses!

Russian Accelerator Rocks! I also finished Mark's free Russian Made Easy podcast then tried Russian Accelerator. If you are reading this and did the podcast then have no doubt, R. Accelerator is next level stuff. For me, thanks to Mark's teaching, Russian went from kind of impossible to get a hold on to.. "Hmm maybe I can actually do this..." and finally to where my Russian co-worker was actually impressed and I impressed myself really. Trust your gut on this one and go for it. Big fan here. Hats off to Mark and crew.

I first did the 30 free podcasts and the podcast in which you learn the Cyrillic alphabet. Then I found out about this advanced course and bought it. Mark's method is different than other people or programs try to teach but it works. It is fun and somehow it sticks. I never thought I would learn Russian but he makes it fun to learn. I also thought it was very reasonably priced if you look at how many lessons you get plus you have lifelong access to the program. To get lessons from a live Tudor would be super expensive in comparison. I met a few Russians by now and even went to Russia recently, I tried my Russian and got not only compliments for using proper grammar but also for learning it so well online. I am so glad I started this course and stuck with it. Thanks Mark!
