Abstract

This 2-year course is designed to provide students with no background in Vietnamese with the opportunities to develop sufficient competence in the Vietnamese language to achieve numerous communicative objectives. The course aims at systematically building the students’ abilities in the four skills of reading, writing, speaking, and listening in Vietnamese, while also providing them with a deeper understanding of Vietnamese culture. It is expected that by the end of the course students will reach B1 level according to CEFR. The volume of the course is 33 credits. To attend the course a student should have near-native command of the Russian language since one of the goals is to train fluent interpretation and translation from Russian to Vietnamese and vice versa.
