Comparing the Cost of Online Russian Lessons for Children

Reduce the price to one comparable lesson

Check the currency, number of sessions and lesson length first. A package of eight 55-minute lessons cannot be compared directly with four 30-minute lessons.

When several currencies are shown, use the actual payment currency and ask who covers conversion or transfer fees.

Individual and group tuition are different products

In an individual lesson, all teaching time belongs to one child. In a group, interaction can add value, but group size and each learner’s actual speaking time matter.

A cheaper group is only good value when the level is right and the child is an active participant rather than an observer.

What may be included

Ask whether assessment, a digital platform, materials, homework marking and parent feedback are included. Schools package these elements differently.

• Books and printable materials
• Homework and marking
• Progress reports
• Coordinator support
• Teacher replacement
• Platform access between lessons

Packages, cancellations and rescheduling

A large-package discount is useful only when the validity period and refund rules suit the family. Check whether unused lessons expire, how much notice is required and whether study can be paused.

Ask for the terms in writing rather than relying on a verbal summary.

Where to find LUMI’s current prices

The Russian for Bilingual Children page shows prices by currency, format and package. Do not assume those prices apply to every programme; check the selected course page.

If you have not chosen a format, use the assessment form, then confirm the total, lesson length and package rules before paying.
