Comrade Sasha,

Indeed, I am back from my top-secret mission of infiltration and propagating The Truth about correct TESOL methodology.

I am indeed a few pounds heavier.

Beluga! Beluga!

Warm regards,
fat_chris

I got an offer from a school in Saint Petersburg. It would start in September.

I would obviously start learning the language now.

But comrades, will I be miserable in Saint Petersburg with only an elementary grasp of the language?

Any advice greatly appreciated.

Why 'obviously'? Surely you know to speak naught but the target language in a language class?

Outside of class, I've always had little trouble communicating in a foreign land. One simple truth: money talks. Show your rubles and make it plain you intend to make a purchase. They'll understand.
