This is to inform people of the opportunity to study the Russian language in Minsk, Belarus. The cost is $250 per month, or $1500 for an entire year. You can live in the dorm for free. It's not the cleanest place in the whole world, but it's nice living in the dorm because you get to meet all of the people and there's almost always something to do. Food is farely cheap too, it's possible to live on about $70 a month but I spent about $125 a month. If you want to check everything out for yourself just check out this website by clicking on the link below, it has all the contact info.

You might think that it's not fun living in a dorm with so many different people. Well let me tell you it's not true. I had a great time living in the dorm. Especially if you don't know much Russian it's a good idea, because there are people who speak both English and Russian there, so they can help you out if you're having problems. Not to mention when you're bored and don't know what to do you just have to go right outside your door to talk to people. It's really easy to make friends there. There is usually 1-2 people per room, and 1 shower and bathroom are shared by the rooms that are side by side. For instance rooms 506a and 506b share the same bathroom and shower, but it's really not that bad.

Another good thing about the place is that you can ask just about any native speaker of Russian in the dorm and they will help you whenever you want. It really helped me alot to able to speak in Russian every single day, not only at the store and on the street, but also in the dormitory, because there are quite a few people who speak english.
