Summary
This is Lesson 1 (of 9) of the Foundation Russian course.
Looking for a beginner language course that fits into your busy lifestyle and gets you speaking a new language in a matter of weeks, not years? Michel Thomas's unique method is designed to overcome the frustrations usually faced by language learners so you can...
- Improve your Russian naturally and unforgettably without strain or stress
- Learn from listening and speaking, without the pressure of writing or memorizing
- Build up your Russian in manageable steps by thinking out answers for yourself
For 50 years, Michel Thomas worked on decoding languages into their most essential component parts. These 'building blocks' are introduced sequentially so that you reconstruct the language for yourself - to form your own sentences, to say what you want, when you want. Within the very first hour you will be able to generate complete sentences instinctively, having absorbed the language and grammatical structures.
You will learn at your own pace, pausing and responding where necessary, and complete the 8 one-hour lessons in about 20-30 hours. By the end of the Foundation course, you will understand and have the confidence to speak basic Russian. You can continue to review and practice with the additional 2-hour Review course before moving on to the next level.
What is next?
This is Lesson 1 of 9 of the Foundation Russian course. The next lesson is Lesson 2 of 9 of the Foundation Russian course. The full course is broken into eight easy-to-manage one-hour lessons. It is important that you complete the lessons in order. The Method is successful because it builds on the language you learn in each lesson and 'recycles' language taught in earlier lessons. Do not skip and always begin with Lesson 1.
After Foundation, we recommend doing the Intermediate course. Generally, this is the recommended order for the Michel Thomas Method language courses:
- Foundation
- Intermediate
- Vocabulary Course
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Caution - wrong recording
Be careful if you’re buying this. It’s listed as Foundation Lesson 1 but it’s actually Intermediate Lesson 1.
Audible insist it’s the right recording, they tell me it’s the “Foundation Intermediate Vocabulary Course”. It’s not, it’s just the wrong recording. Hopefully they’ll change it soon.
Lesson 2 is the right recording though, so for now if you think you can do without Lesson 1, go for it.

WRONG RECORDING!!!
This first lesson (only) is the WRONG RECORDING and is a recording of INTERMEDIATE RUSSIAN.
The intermediate course listener is expected to build upon what was learned in the foundation course. Making this rather useless.
