- Duolingo RussianI have a wonderful Russian professor on Italki and also use Duolingo. Duolingo has a feature called stories and another for podcasts for Spanish learners, but not for Russian. Has anyone found something similar elsewhere?I study Spanish on italki and Duolingo as well and really enjoy those features in Spanish. It's very elementary but fun.September 22, 201901
Today is better than yesterday
I have stared to working with words from The Oxford 3000 Wordlist that begin with the letter "A." on character „a“. By the way, the alphabet in English has only twenty-six characters (in Russian we have some more). I am trying to memorize words and their meanings. It is hard because English words are not similar to words in my native language. Also I am reading some examples that show me how I can use this words.I think that if I will be am strong and purposeful, I can learn important things quite fast. One problem that what I have -- it is my brain and memory. A long time ago I read different articles and wrote a small and big texts, but I did it in Russian. Over time But I felt now feel that my mind has lost plasticity and flexibility over time.
Right now my goal is to I learn to learn. And I hope this adventure will be interesting, informative and useful.

School is a very important part of everybody’s life. We usually spend there usually about ten years of our lives in school. and I think that it’s really a lot. For During this time we can get some useful knowledge to use it in the future or [ or and?} we can find good friends there. Lots of pupils students say that they hate their school because it’s very boring there and that teachers make you learn somethings what that you don’t need. But actually after finishing school, we all miss it very much. We remember how we was were all having fun together and we want to come go back to the past to see our old friends. I think that school time is a time when we can do everything what that we want and it’s very important to use this time rightly wisely because everybody has only one life to live and we won’t be able to change our mistakes.0 votedAugust 17, 20182- Практика местоимения Кто он здесь знает?

It's hard to stay calm and peaceful in these days, but one thing more important: to stay equanimous. That means to be in equilibrium, not to just no take action, but to take action in the right and most advantageous way; to just not make decisions, but to make the right decisions; to stand calm and in equilibrium when something bad happens and to get out of the situation in the best possible way. Of course it will help also to improve your efficiency in your studies and work because you are focused on what you are doing... your mind is right here and not in any other part in your imagination.
All right... all this words are really nice, but, how do we really find equilibrium and equanimity in our minds? There's were the really hard work begins.0 votedAugust 15, 20180
