Reviews

"The Art of Teaching Russian provides strong evidence of the growing research base and practitioner expertise ready to meet today's demands for the study of Russian." — Dan E. Davidson, emeritus professor of Russian, Bryn Mawr College; director, American Councils Research Center (ARC); president emeritus, American Councils for International Education

"This well-organized and coherent volume will undoubtedly push the field forward with its many and varied approaches to language teaching." — Susan Gass, University Distinguished Professor and director of the English Language Center, Michigan State University

"The Art of Teaching Russian: Research, Pedagogy, and Practice will clearly be filling the existing gap and hopefully creating a bridge to more data and research in the field as well as a development of more innovative teaching materials, including textbooks for different levels of proficiency and online programs with new technologically mediated teaching methods. The book should also facilitate the conversation about teaching and learning Russian among Russian instructors and promote further research in the field." — Rocky Mountain Review
