Russian through Video and Film

Russian Through Video and Film, created by Victoria Novikova, offers a unique approach to Russian language learning. Instead of traditional textbook methods, this Patreon focuses on analyzing authentic Russian videos and films. Members receive accompanying worksheets designed to enhance comprehension and vocabulary acquisition while exposing them to diverse aspects of Russian culture and society. Launched in May 2023, the community has already grown to 73 total members, with 14 actively supporting the project. The creator's engaging approach, focusing on real-world media, sets it apart from other language-learning resources, offering a more immersive and culturally relevant experience. While still in its early stages, the project has generated an estimated $54 in monthly earnings, demonstrating early traction and a passionate audience.
