If you have studied Russian before, you already know a lot of the vocabulary and grammar you will need for GCSE: you know how to talk about yourself, your family and friends, your hobbies, where you live, school, holidays, food and drink. You will build on this knowledge during your GCSE course, and move on to new topics. If you are starting this as a new language for GCSE you can be confident in knowing that, through your previous studies in other subjects, you have already built up a lot of valuable skills which will help you to learn anew language.  \nWhat can I do after I’ve completed the course?  \nPeople with language skills and knowledge usually have an advantage over people without them. They stand out as talented and successful people, with broad and exciting horizons. Taking GCSE Russian means you will:  \n● Add an extra dimension to your personal skills profile which will impress anyone who reads your CV  \n● Be in a stronger position to get a job in companies with international links or improve employability if you would like to work abroad  \n● Be able to work or study in a Russian-speaking country in later life  \n● Be able to study AS and A level Russian courses to further your knowledge of the language and culture  \n● Find it easier to learn other languages later if you want to.  \nWhat will I learn?  \nGCSE Russian helps you explore a wide range of topics, from celebrations and festivals, through getting by as a tourist in Russia to international campaigns and events. You will learn about Russian culture through a range of interesting topics which will add to your understanding of the language and country.  \nHow will I be assessed?  \nYou will take four exams worth 25% each. You can take foundation or higher level, and you will be given a grade between 1 and 9, with 9 being the highest.  \n\n| Listening and | Reading and | Writing in | Speaking in |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| understanding | understanding | Russian | Russian |\n| in Russian | in Russian | 60 marks | 70 marks |\n| 50 marks | 50 marks |  |  |\n| This requires you to listen to recordings in Russian and answer questions on what you hear.
