Foreigners about education in Russia | Is it hard to study in a Russian university?

In this video, I talked about the differences that I see between education in Russia and the USA universities (because I studied in West Virginia). I also asked international students who study in Moscow what they think about the education system of Russia, our campus and the university.

My current Russian instructor is very demanding and hard. I have to do a great deal of memorizing and studying. She is very much a product of the Russian education system and she earned her Master's in Russian. My impression that I got from my current Russian instructor is that in regards to math, science, technology, medicine, and languages, the Russian education system is very good and some of the best in the world. I expect education to be tough and hard. There is also a very clear line in Russian education it seems between student and teacher with some level of discipline and respect and things are always professional. My Russian instructor told me that during Soviet times, Soviet education was strict. I think some level of rules, discipline and order is needed for a good education system. Teachers and students are not equals. Teachers are the boss and students work hard and listen to the teacher and do as they are told.

[@Anonymous-qj3sf]

Yeah. Russian education best in the world on science (mathematics, physics etc)

@@ElifromRussia i studied economy and i want to inform you that the economic problems in russia are caused by the US. the world is a big economic piramid controlled by the US, where the SWIFT stransaction system, the world central bank are controlled by the USA gov. and many other assest are forced to be sold using the US dollar making their currency rising illegaly in a fake way. And then people stay by the side of who has money, the US (also if it has money by abusing the control of ecomony that the world gave to the US after the WW2) and people hate putin thinking its his fault if there are economic problema in Russia, when in reality its the US that is oppressing Russia for many years and even more now. About the demilitarization mission, putin only wanted the neutrality of Ukraine because was a soviet region and for the pact of Varsavia should be allied of Russia and not a US puppet. The US gov. broke the pact of varsavia and the pact of minsk invading the russan allied countries and even Ukraine. NATO did exercitation and even put american military bases in the ex soviet region, the ukranian government toke control promising the big american money to ukranians and they fell for it (thats the fake democracy where who make more fake promises win and leftist kill rightist and viceversa to distract people from the government fault and give ppl the illusion of a choice). Now ukraine is an American puppet, Russian in ukraine are called inferior race and get discrimination and the kiev army shoot at Russians. The cia even did experiment to diffuse covid in Russia to ruin their economy, if i was in you i would fight against the American propaganda like millions of people in europe where I live. If the US stop sending weapons the war would be finished without any dead and ukranians would benefit from being friends with Russia instead of being an american puppet against russia. Stop sending weapons for american interests of controlling Ukraine and stop using ukranians as human shields. Ukrainians and Russians are both slavic brothers and sister part of the ex sovietic union, they got divided in the past by the US propaganda but the US propaganda and money corruption won't divide them again. Stop nato. Help Russia against the american oppression.

An important note.... The choice of courses in America is a mock choice... In any case, you are required to study the same amount of courses at each level. In most cases, for each course you want to study, you find it linked to a required course.... It means that you study some pre-determined courses every year, as in Russian universities, instead of the illusion of choice in America... In fact, there is no choice and nothing.

What opportunities do you have as a Russian student after graduation to get a good job in Russia? In the auto industry? In mechanical engineering? In the electrical industry (semiconductor computer chip) I am not saying that Russia does not have the potential, but bright minds prefer to leave Russia.

[@6NBERLS]

I think that it would be much easier to learn the Russian language if you went to live in Russia. I just need to hear native speakers of a language to get a feel for the sound of it. I envy Russians for their climate. Here in the gulf coast of Texas, the heat and humidity are insufferable. I have to live indoors in the air conditioning. Once, when I lived in Austin, the temperature got to 102 Fahrenheit in February. Siberia sounds good to me.

Hi!! I'm brazilian and I really love learning about new things, new cultures, and right after I saw your video, I got so curious about how is the feeling of being sorrounded by so many interesting and different people. Well, I'm in highschool right now in the inland of south, and I can tell you that here were I live we unfortunately have poor schools because of the terrible management of the government, which screws up with our education and that's way a big side of the country remains without education. The thing is, if you are poor in Brazil, you need to have the guts to pass through it and study all on you own to conquer at least a job that pays you less than two hundred bucks per month (here is like 822 reais). At the same time it makes me feel demotivated, I'm up to try my best to maybe someday get into a great university! And I hope that over the time, more and more people get into the best of the universities too :)

[@richardtucker5686]

Learning Russian by learning all the Grammar immediately is too difficult for many students, and if they can have 2 years of practicing speaking in context, and building vocabulary then they can achieve it. Do your universities ask students to question everything they learn? I wouldn't think that they would (it doesn't seem to be the Russian way), but it can help the faculty also to know that some knowledge should be tested, and the way to progress is by this path.
