Harry Collier IV’s Reviews > Russian, Book 1: Russian Through Propaganda > Status Update

Had to take a break but now I'm back.

Chapter 12 is probably the greatest example of why a foreign language shouldn't be taught through one's native language.
His ideas of how English works are often wildly simplistic and wrong.

But why should we care how English works when learning Russian?

We shouldn't!

A few days ago I asked a question on YouTube and the author of this book snarkily told me to "stop watching the videos."

So, to reiterate my earlier statement DON'T BUY THIS. Get the info free.

DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK!!!

It's fantastic but the author gives all the info for free in a YouTube series and even mentions several times that all the worksheets (plus material not in the book) is available to download free on his website.

Great book but a waste of money when everything contained in it is free.

Finally, something to actually practice.
Not a lot but something...
