Nguyen Xuan Thanh, Vietnam

Since childhood, I have been passionate about languages and different cultures, which motivated me to study Russian. I decided to come to Moscow to study because Russia has a rich history, strong educational traditions, and an immersive environment for learning the Russian language. Studying here allows me to practice the language daily and experience Russian culture firsthand.

My experience in Moscow has been incredible so far. What I love the most about studying here is the opportunity to interact with native speakers and learn about Russian traditions firsthand.

I chose HSE University because of its academic excellence and international recognition. The university offers a strong Russian language programme and many opportunities for personal and professional growth. After the Preparatory Year, I plan to enrol in the Faculty of International Relations. This programme aligns with my academic interests and career aspirations.
