    @Murillo
    All I can say that my oldest kid can easily read/speak russian/Ukrainian. 
    The problem I see now, that as long as here's the mixture (Ukrainian at school and russian at home) many of kids will be using any of them with mistakes. I see that now and the number is rising. That's why I insist to start and finish the whole sentence or else in language it was started )
    That's the price that we have to pay for the evolutionary methods. It's too delicate question now and the country is too polarized just to force someone of speaking just Ukrainian. 
    It more of philosophy and I really don't want to continue with that.

    Hope that in time (maybe in 10-20 years) Ukrainan will be a dominating language. 
    My first goal is to raise my kids and to prepare them to be able to choose their way in life. I believe they will be able to express themselves in any language they'd like )

    We can not compare Ukraine to Canada or else: 
    From one point language here is a question that was up used too many times by politicians and other **it the same as nationalism (the last one plus " Ukrainian fashism" is more used by russia to brainwash those who watches TV a lot).
    From another, it's just one of the tools to try to change the mindset from former-USSR to up-to dated one. Not to become a kind of Northern Korea or russia once again.
    We still have that high level corrupion. We, as people are sick of it. I do understand that in every country we can find it, but it's too impudent here in former - USSR republics.
    And we do understand that our government worth to be changed but it's really hard to find any decent person there. 
    We had 2 opportunities when Yuschenko and lately Poroshenko were elected mostly on a people's will, but shame - the've chosen to become more reach than to become a big part of the history.

    Just want to highlight once again - that's just my IMHO

    BTW,  do you need me to write that down in russian?

    Hi all. 
    I'm also curious is it normal to speak russian in russia or German in Germany, well... you've got the point?
    It's a fact that in Ukraine the number of people with russian as a mother-tongue is significant. We can rise historical aspects of that but let's skip for now. All the rest is my IMHO:
    1. Let's highlight the terms - what do you mean by "government is forcing". That's a normal thing I believe that teaching process is based on a national language. You can choose the second foreign language for kids at school - it can be russian or French or German in addition to English. 

    Sure, there is a problem that kids will be making mistakes and there will be some kind of mixture (russian and Ukrainian are from one language group) and we call it "surzhik" - it takes place in villages and towns near the borders - and as close to the border is that village, more  "bright" that "surzhik" appears.
    In my family we are doing our best not to mix those 2 languages - If the sentence started in russian - in russian it should be finished. The same for Ukrainian.
    Also reading books in russian and Ukrainian helps not to mix it in writing.

    2. Is it important - not for all, but after the russian invasion the number of Ukrainian speaking here raised.
    I can speak russian (It's my mother tongue and I never in my life was forced here not to speak it), Ukrainian, English and basic German and I believe that it's more important what brings me that info but not how it came out from someone's mouth.
    But I agree that it's normal that in Ukraine Ukrainian is the main (or how you can call it) language.

    3. I think that it still will be russian and Ukrainian (it's a history - you can't avoid it). But I hope it will be more of English-speaking or else people.

    Will continue

    @Вера
    Я далеко не порохобот и лично готов посла на йух всю "элиту". 
    И, как я написал,  эта тема не однозначна. 
    Время покажет.

    @Katarina
    Totally agree. 
    One thing I know for sure cause I felt with my skin here - IF there will be no anti-propaganda - everything will end badly.
    From the first days of Maidan started there were a lot of messages from Kremlin that russians are not welcome here in Ukraine, russian language is forbidden, etc. (once again I've downloaded all that sh**t from Youtube just not to forget). 
    As russian is my mother tongue and I use it on everyday basis - I can tell you that no one never forced me to speak Ukreainian (which I can fluently speak). Only If I'd like to get a job for the government - but that's a normal situation. 

    Even now in 21 century a crowd doesn't want to get the real truth - just any info that will satisfy their vision of it. Who needs youtube and tonnes of videos from both sides of conflict if there's "wholly news"

    It's great that you don't know what the real war is.  I'm really happy for you and your country. 
    A lot of russians still think that USSR was the best that ever happend to their country.

    Just want you to remember what was happening in 1968. And that's happening here but in a much worse way. (

    @Danny
    VK is good for teenagers and to listen to the music (good thing though) 
    Also, you can join VK (if not yet) click "video" and search "porn" and you'll get real porn. 
    I'm not mentioning that FSB took VK from Durov right when he declared that he won't give the info on Ukrainian maidan activist to FSB.

    Really, there's no simple answer for that. - I deleted both my account @ OK and VK in 2014 - that was my choice. If someone like that trash - ok, BUT - VK, mail.ru (including news) and others is a great tool of an influence on teenagers. You can like it or not.

    The information war is real. I can prove it by simple youtube samples - first, we see the new in a prime time on a federal russian TV that shows a "woman" that telling the true story how a little boy in Slavyansk was crucified by "Ukrainian nacis" and I can show you another video of prisoned Ukrainian pilot's interrogation - there was smth. like "guys like you - Ukrainian nacis crucified a boy in Slavyansk and murdered another in Oedssa".

    And that shit works!!! Even now, in 21 century!!!
    In terms of VK - you can easily manage the teenager's minds if you have an ability to make simple small injections day by day, little by little. 
    I'm not crazy - my oldest son uses VK and I have never forbidden him to. But it's simple as is.

    Not just VK was banned. Is that good - maybe?
    Was that the best of options - not sure. But there is REAL WAR in Ukraine now. And if nothing will be done now - later these teenagers will be fighting there in the Eastern Ukraine.
    The mentality of teenagers must be changed to more progressive European one instead of post-USSR
    And yep, VK is a great trash can. 
    We can be talking a lot on that, but...
    IMHO

    It's out of context, so I can just suppose that the idea was like the main idea of the article was to make some explanations (or just give some information) by providing links to some (a lot of) original notes from abroad. Smth. like that: - hey guys, what the ***? how come the economy is down? - well, you know - it's a global thing... you can see that in international finance journal - article by the lead financial guy, also the problem was first highlighted in 1999 by *** (*** journal) and BBC made a huge conference on that (link) IMHO

    Хороший преподаватель

    Я думаю, что хороший преподаватель должен быть готовым, терпеливым, опытным, и хорошим слушателем. Он должен умеет уметь помогать студентам, не только как он хочет, но как им нужно. Это значит, что преподаватель должен уделить внимание на основным потребностям студента. На пример когда я преподаю, в первую очередь я должен слушать внимательно и терпеливо, а не второпя́х проведет навыков оценку.

    Один из моих лучших преподавателей в университете в Париже был очень интересным и знающим и хорошо умел вдохновлять, поощрять и мотивировать студентов. На основе его примера, я всегда хотел делать тот же самый. Спасибо большое за помощь.


    I've had a lot of concerns understanding the original article, like:
    на основным потребностям студента.- The basic needs usually means to sleep, to eat, etc. ... you know ) 

    so I just tried to adopt it as only I could get it. 
    ***************
    Я думаю, что опытный преподаватель должен быть хорошо подготовлен, терпелив, обладать достаточным опытом и уметь слушать других. Он должен уметь находить подход к студентам. Это означает, что преподаватель должен понимать и принимать ожидания студента. Например, в процессе преподавания я внимательно и тепреливо выслушиваю позицию студента и лишь после этого ставлю оценку его навыкам.

    В Париже у нас был преподаватель - один из лучших, что я встречал. Он был профессионалом в своем деле, умел с интересом преподносить информацию, умел вдохновлять, поощрять и мотивировать студентов. Я всегда старался следовать его примеру.
