Let's Improve our Russian: Textbook 1

From the authors: "The rather tricky authors of this book have chosen the most difficult grammatical themes that exist in the Russian language, but sugarcoated it with lexical material and literature texts. We know that as you study a foreign language you sometimes create your own difficulties and also your own methods of overcoming them...We will do everything in our power to show you that learning Russian is not an impossibly difficult task." More about the book: Right from the beginning of the book, start tackling verbal aspect comprehensively and confidently. Then continue onto numerous themes, such as verbs of motion, reflexive verbs, participles (e.g., -уюшийся), gerunds, and even the dreaded numerals. There are many simple exercises that are not as boring as in outdated or lesser-quality textbooks. The textbook itself even comes with a key, so you aren't left wondering whether you wrote the correct answer. This first book in the 3-part series is exactly what the serious, but early- to mid-intermediate student needs to lay the foundation for basic, solid, and intelligent language. It has a lot of English explanations, definitions, and examples, so you can feel comfortable whilst making swift progress. "Let's Improve Our Russian" is recommended for at least high school students and is excellent for university-level education.
