Étudier le russe en Russie

Priviet !
J'ai déjà des bases en russe et j'aimerais les rafraîchir sérieusement, tout en découvrant un peu plus de la culture russe ou celle des anciennes républiques d'ex-Union Soviétique. Je réfléchis donc à la possibilité de m'inscrire dans une université russe, mongole, tadjik ou autre, pour m'y plonger complètement, pour une année (ou plus si affinités).
Je suis pas trop attirée par Moscou et Saint Petersbourg, plus par Novossibirsk ou Irkoustk, ou pourquoi pas Ulan bator, Almaty, Dushanbe, Bishkek, Tashkent... Plutôt vers l'est quoi...
Avez-vous déjà étudié dans une université russe ? Est-ce que vous auriez des conseils à me donner ? Un endroit plus sympa qu'un autre pour étudier ?
Est-ce qu'il est nécessaire de passer par une organisation française (suisse) avant de partir ?
Merci Aurélie

Privet à toi aussi!!
pour ma patr je travaille en Russie dans une université donc je peux te donner quelques petites indications. Tu peux tout à fait t'inscrire dans une fac russe mais attention pour un étranger c'est très cher, bien plus qu'en France. Le mieux est de t'inscrire dans une université linguistique ou tu pourras prendre des cours de russe. Je sais qu'il y en a une à Irkoutsk et une à Piatigorsk (là où je travaille), pour les autres, je ne sais pas. Et bien sûr à Moscou et St Pet. mais je comprends que tu n'ais pas envie d'y aller.
pour ce qui est des modalités d'inscription, par contre je ne peux pas t'aider. Si, par exemple, tu veux aller à irkoutsk, je te conseille de t'adresser à l'alliance française qui pourra peut-être te renseigner sur les modalités à l'université. Après il reste internet, la fac où je bosse par exemple, a un site internet. Donc il faut aller voir. Le mieux c'est de trouver l'adresse e-mail du service des relations internationales dans la fac et leur anvoyer un mail pour leur expliquer ce que tu veux.
Je suis désolée de ne pas pouvoir t'en dire plus mais tout cela dépend des facs et il est difficile de généraliser. Mais sache quand même, qu'en Russie, il n'y a aucune difficulté à s'inscrire pour un an pour apprendre le russe.
Bon courage, Poka

J'ai bien noté que tu ne préférerais pas aller à Moscou, cependant si ça t'intéresse quand même, moi je suis allée deux fois étudier le russe là-bas, à l'institut Pouchkine, donc je pourrai te donner des infos sur comment faire pour s'inscrire, sur les cours etc.
en gros la première fois (sept-octobre, été indien!!si si!) c'était génial, la deuxième (fin novembre) c'était bcp moins bien!
je ne connais pas bien la "province" russe, mais j'ai comme l'impression que les gens y sont nettement plus sympas que dans les capitales.

Whenever you are in doubt, or when the self becomes too much with you, apply the following test. Recall the face of the poorest and the weakest man/woman whom you may have seen, and ask yourself, if the step you contemplate is going to be of any use to him/her
Priviet Daniet,
Je suis Angélique, j'aimerais aller en Russie pour apprendre le russe (j'ai étudié cette langue 1 an, j'ai qqes bases) et je me demandais aussi si dans les universités comme à Irkoutsk ou Piatigorsk ils recherchent des intervenants français? Ce qui m'intéresserait, c'est de prendre des cours mais aussi de travailler. Si tu as des pistes? Tu fais quoi exactement à l'université de Piatigorsk?
Pour le moment je suis en Espagne pour parfaire mon espagnol et donc ensuite pourquoi pas partir en Russie.
Merci,
Poka Angélique

Bonjour!
Je compte etudier le russe a Irkoutsk egalement. Et partir en novembre ou decembre. Idealement j'aurai voulu etudier a la fac de Irkoutsk mais l'annee universitaire ayant deja commence, c'est trop tard.
Donc je me tourne vers les ecoles priveees.
Quelqu'un a t il des infos ? Prix, professionalisme de l'ecole etc.?
Et choupette14, as tu finalement pris des cours chez Biakal Lingua? Si oui, peux tu me donner quelques informations sur l'ecole (prix, visa, si l'on peut commencer des cours au milieu d'un semestre etant debutant etc.)
Cordialement,

Je suis preneur d'adresses (locales, internet) et de tes informations.
Merci!

After living for many years in the West (Belgium, Italy, Switzerland),
I’ve decided to return and settle in Cameroon, my home country.
Currently an entrepreneur in real estate and transport, I’m looking for a partner / partners / foundation to collaborate on an agriculture project, as I own 10 hectares of land.
The hectares have remained unused for years due to a lack of financial means, since the project requires what I’d call a considerable investment. As the main stakeholder, I have a minimal contribution to offer.
I believe it’s time to bring this space to life to meet pressing needs and serve the common good of society.
The project is simple:
1) Grow maize + build a processing plant to produce flour
2) Open a mini supermarket + a modern bakery using the flour for pastries, etc.
3) Build a healthcare service
4) Build a nursery and primary school
5) Construct free housing for retired expatriates in exchange for their voluntary contributions in their respective fields.
This is a project I truly believe in, and I invite anyone interested to add their personal touch—whether through advice, guidance, or involvement.
Note: This project has national and international potential in terms of employment.
My slogan: To be visibly useful to society
You’ve got to dare, even if it makes you tremble.

Hi everyone, my son’s school is offering him a one-month Erasmus trip to Ireland, but he has to find a junior cycle school that will accept him and a host family on his own. Honestly, we’re struggling—we’ve contacted two schools and haven’t heard back! If you have any leads...

Hi there,
I’m considering moving to Miami to live and work for a few years.
If anyone knows what the administrative formalities are—both for getting a work permit and for the steps and reputable organizations to contact (since I imagine there are scammers in this space) when buying a studio in Miami or Miami Beach—I’d love any info you can share!
Have a great day

Hi everyone,

Hi everyone,
I’m heading to Bangkok for a 5-month internship, and I’m wondering about the budget because I’ve read all sorts of things—so I decided to post here to get answers tailored to my situation! :D I found housing that costs me 7,000 baht (I know it’s a bit pricey, but it’s super convenient...), which works out to about 160 € all-inclusive. So, I was wondering if it’s realistic to live on 500 or 600 € per month, and if so, under what conditions? Is that enough, considering I’ll be working 40 hours a week?
Thanks in advance for your replies—I hope they’ll reassure me!

Hi everyone,
WEP offers loads of different projects, including one I really like: helping and volunteering on a farm, particularly in South America (Peru or Argentina).
I’d love to know if anyone has tried this project or knows someone who has... or has done something similar? I’d like to get some feedback before diving into the adventure.
If so, could you share your thoughts on the project, any tips, etc.?
Thanks to anyone who replies!

Hi there,
Our departure time is getting closer (we have less than 2 years left—it’s both a long time and so short!). To start preparing seriously, we’ll need quite a bit of info. If anyone knows the rates charged by movers for a crate to French Polynesia, or what pitfalls to avoid (I know you can get quotes directly from movers, but I’d love insights from actual customers😉).
Are there any special requirements before leaving France (aside from taxes...)?
Thanks to everyone for your help—every bit of info is useful. We’re aiming for a departure around 06/2010 (just need to save up a little more...). Thanks again!

Hi, I’m a self-employed physiotherapist in France, and as my wife (a nurse) and I look into working abroad in about two years, I’ve been offered an equivalence to become a respiratory physiotherapist in Switzerland. Actually, I’m currently doing a postgraduate diploma in pediatric respiratory physiotherapy and want to specialize in that area. Anyway, that’s not the main point—could anyone explain the pros and cons of doing this job in Switzerland? Based on the paperwork I’ve received, the equivalence seems purely administrative or almost... What about working conditions, quality of life, salaries, etc.?
Thanks for your replies. PS: Same question for my wife, a nurse, regarding her integration.
Thanks, Nicolas and Bérengère

Hi everyone!
I’m looking for information about jobs in early childhood in New Caledonia. I’m currently a childminder in a MAM (multi-accueil) and I’ve also worked for about 6 years in several daycare centers as a childcare assistant. In the summer of 2026, my husband is being transferred to New Caledonia. We’ll be living near Nouméa. Do you know if the early childhood sector is a good field for jobs there? Can’t wait to discover this island! Right now, we’re in the middle of all the administrative paperwork for our 3 kids, finding housing, bringing our cat to the territory, and so on! Thanks for your feedback!!

Hi everyone!
I’d like to move to Spain, specifically to Málaga. To do that, I’d like to know if I’ll need any official documents from France to work there, or anything like that... I’d also love to hear from people who’ve moved to Spain for work—do Spaniards like the French? Is it hard to fit in? What are the salary ranges for a ready-to-wear salesperson? And is it easy to find housing?
Thanks! 🙂

Hi everyone! 👨🏾🤝👨🏻
My partner and I currently live in Antibes—we’re both freelancers working remotely. We’re thinking about potentially moving to Italy.
We’d like to settle near the French border, between Ventimiglia and San Remo (this is important because we need access to Nice Airport twice a month). ✈️
I’d love to hear about life in this region! We’re looking for a quiet spot close to the sea. Any recommendations? As for the paperwork, is it difficult to get everything official? Is finding housing tough in this area? What kind of guarantees are usually required? If any kind soul could shed some light on this, we’d really appreciate it! 🥺🏻

Hi everyone,
I’d like to get some information about my eligibility for the DV Lottery.
About my background: • I earned a *Bac Pro* through VAE (*Validation des Acquis de l’Expérience*), issued by the *Éducation nationale*. • I also have a professional certification as a *Conseiller en Insertion* (Employment Counselor), issued by the Ministry of Labor. • Altogether, this adds up to a *Bac+2* level.
I’d like to know if this level qualifies me to apply for the DV Lottery.
Regarding my work experience: • I work as an *Employment Counselor*. • I checked on O*Net Online for the classification: Job Zone 4, SVP Range: 7.0 – <8.0. • I only have one year of experience, but I handle similar tasks in business creation.
So my question is: can I apply for the DV Lottery despite my relatively short experience, given that my job falls under Job Zone 4?
Thanks in advance for your answers and advice! !

Hi everyone,
I’m looking for info on villages around Aix, like Fuveau, Bouc-Bel-Air, or even Éguilles and Venelles? We’re a couple with a child living in the Paris region, and I’ll be relocating to Aix-en-Provence in spring 2026. We’d love to swap our apartment for a house with a pool within 20-30 minutes max of central Aix, with a budget of around 650k €.
In terms of climate and geography, I’ve read that Aix is in a basin where it can get really hot. What about the surrounding villages that are a bit more elevated, like Venelles? Is it just as stifling?
For a family, which area would you recommend?

Starting this spring, we want to settle near Aix-en-Provence. We're tired of living in the mountains with all the snow—we really need some sunshine and a fresh start. Is it hard to find a house to rent there? What about prices? If you have any great tips or useful info about the area, we’d love to hear it. I work in education and want to do prevention work in Marseille or Aix—are there jobs in the social sector?
Anyway, we need tons of info, but we’re sure we’re going to take the leap—no hesitation, adventure is adventure!!! Thanks for your help and any experiences you can share.

Hi,
I’m an osteopath and I’d like to set up and open an osteopathy practice in Thailand. I don’t have a precise location in mind yet, but I’m thinking maybe Hua Hin. I saw there’s an osteopath based in Phuket, so I wrote to him for some info, but he still hasn’t replied🤪!
So I’m reaching out to people who live there or know the country well: I’d like to know what the best ways are to advertise and get known in Thailand. Are there any local classifieds newspapers? First, I’d like to practice from my apartment. Is that allowed in Thailand? Ideally, I’d like to work part-time in a private hospital as an osteopath. I’m thinking that in Thailand, the medical field is much more open than in Europe!!! Has anyone seen an osteopath or chiropractor working in a Thai hospital? Do you know the price of a consultation?
Any info you can share will be super helpful! Thanks in advance[;)!!!]

We’re a small family from the south of France, with a 2-year-old little boy, and we’re dreaming of starting a new adventure abroad by opening our own business. For now, we haven’t chosen a specific destination yet.
We mainly speak French, with a basic level of Spanish and English, and we’re ready to improve these two languages if needed. We’re looking for a multicultural, safe country with quality healthcare and good schools accessible for our son. We’d also love a pleasant place with a mild climate where life is good.
Our idea is to travel to different countries to explore, compare, and refine our project. We’d be really happy to read your tips, experiences, or anecdotes if you’ve already undertaken a similar project or if you know key points to anticipate.
Thanks in advance for your shares and help—it would really help us move forward with our project! 😄
Hi everyone,
I’m heading to Dublin as an au pair in a few weeks.
I’m looking for a reputable language school. It’s so hard to choose! Has anyone already done a language stay in Dublin? Any tips? Thanks so much! :)
Hi everyone, so I’m planning to go study at a community college in the U.S., but the only snag is which one—there are so many options over there! I’ve heard about one in California, Diablo Valley College, and another in Florida, Valencia College. I know both states are super attractive for tourism, but my main criteria are teaching quality and price. I’m open to any advice, comments, or suggestions—thanks in advance! The start of the semester is coming up, and I’m a little nervous...
READY, SET...... GO...... TO YOUR KEYBOARDS!!!!!!!! lol

Hi! I’m looking for an apartment in Malaga from September (2025) until January for my Erasmus exchange, but I’m not finding much, and it seems like there are a lot of scams. Does anyone have any leads or tips? Thanks!^^
