"Same, same but different " (in Russian "Другие") is an exciting new way to learn conversational Russian, suitable for both complete beginners and people with existing knowledge of the language. Galina Lang is a teacher of Russian in Australia, having moved from her native St Petersburg in 2008. She noticed that while most textbooks feature daunting lists and tables, there was an easier, better (and fun!) way to engage people. “Same, same but different” is a captivating story, which began when Galina introduced Leonid, Natasha, Anya, Nikolai Petrovich and other characters to her students. Classes became full of laughter and discussion as students got involved with the characters, and noticed that they were learning words and phrases without effort, just by following the story. Ksenia Antonova, a talented illustrator from Minsk, has brought the characters to life, creating vivid, memorable images. “Same, same but different” is a perfect way to start independent study of Russian, or as a text to complement individual or group lessons.
