Getting Started with Azerbaijani or Russian?

There are as many ways to learn languages as there are people. Here what really works for our students:

• Don’t wait for ideal circumstances before you start
• Get started with the resources that are available to you
• Find a person willing to work with you
• A teacher is ideal
• But any native speaker can be helpful
• A thousand books aren’t worth as much as a single person committed to helping you
• Learn the fundamentals of how the language is structured (noun declensions, verb conjugations, word order, etc. )

• Be resourceful
• Create opportunities to read and listen to the language.
• Don’t be afraid of making mistakes
• You don’t have to be perfect
• Rather focus on communicating and making yourself understood.
• Have fun doing it!
• Speak with as many different people as you possibly can
• You’ll expand your vocabulary, learn different ways of expressing yourself and attune ear to different pronunciations, inflections, rhythms, etc.
• Besides, it’s a wonderful opportunity to make good friends!
• Never be satisfied
• Always strive to improve your new language
