At The Russian Program, our founders Yagiz Sen and Elena Moroz are seasoned language learners passionate about linguistics and helping people connect across geographic and language barriers. Yagiz is a seasoned linguist, language professor, and avid language learner. In addition to being an expert in education research, Elena has been learning foreign languages since she was 6 years old with an appetite that has yet to be quenched. Both understand from first-hand experience how important and difficult it can be to learn a foreign language. Yagiz and Elena have learned over 10 languages among themselves, and both are committed to emancipatory pedagogy and co-producing learning, inspired by Paolo Freire. We believe that every learner is unique, and we strive to create a supportive environment that nurtures their language journey and honors all learning styles and goals.
We take pride in offering accessible language classes to everyone, while supporting the livelihoods of linguists and educators. We offer scholarships to several students every term. Here are some of our featured recent scholarship grantees.
