Russian Readers: Learn Russian

I’ve probably tested more than 50 language apps (I love learning new languages). Many of them were quite useful, but they all reach a point in which they become repetitive and boring, making the brain unwilling to acquire new information. I have used Russian Readers for some time now and my brain still acquires information like a sponge. The small explanatory videos from many of the stories are incredibly useful, they take you by the hand and explain intuitively how the language and expressions work. This is how I use the app: first I read the page in Russian, without english translation, and try to understand the most of it, afterwards I use the translation, the third step is to use the read aloud option and repeat after the reader, the last step is to play the video if there is any. There is no better way to learn Russian, you can take my word for it!

I’ve been studying Russian, off/on for 20 years. I can recognize and pronounce the Cyrillic alphabet, and these books and audio narration are fantastic and encouraging. FANTASTIC!!! Thank you, I wish I’d downloaded long ago.

Perfect, no faults. Thank you to whoever created this!

It’s truly a wonderful app and has immensely helped me improved my reading. I just feel it could be so much easier and more useful if there was stressed letters for beginners. Other than that it’s a 5star app and is very useful.

I can only concur with the many very positive reviews that already have been posted about Russian Reader app. This is a beautifully designed tool to help one learn the Russian language.

Highly recommend this app! Has reading and listening for all levels from beginner onwards. Helps with expanding vocab and case skills. Definitely worth it!

1. Sets of flash cards that correspond to each story. (Can be on your website) 2. A repeat or loop button that enables hands free repetition while I sleep or do other tasks.

I took a 10 week University course in Russian and wanted to improve on my language abilities. I have found this app to be super helpful! I love the progressive nature of the lessons and books. I left a feedback comment on the app and this is the first time any developer ever acknowledged my comment and suggestion. Whether or not they apply my suggestion does not matter as much as the fact they responded. One day I hope to be able to communicate in Russian and this app will help!

I downloaded this app at the beginning of my journey learning Russian along with several others. I’ve come back to this one now, and it is so helpful to put sentences and grammar together. Great team of people with extensive education in teaching language.

I love this app! I’m a teacher with an intermediate level of Russian, and this app has helped me greatly improve. Many of my students are Russian speakers, and this has been so helpful in growing my vocabulary to have conversations with them. I highly recommend this app to anyone!
