Russian

Anna recently e-mailed us: “After graduating I spent the summer teaching English to Japanese exchange students in Portland. Then I moved to Prague and taught English for 7 months. I always had the goal of going to Russia to put to use the language I started studying at Lewis and Clark. So the following year I taught English in St. Petersburg 4 months. I am currently studying Russian 20 hours a week at Smolny Institute and teaching English to pay the bills. I plan to spend the summer in Kazan or Siberia, and I hope to find an internship that will help me get into graduate school (History or Economics). I am very grateful to the Russian Program at Lewis & Clark for all the encouragement and guidance they provided and I think any student with the interest and motivation will find LC a great place to start discovering Russia.
