Suggests that Russian should be taught largely by reading, rather than through grammar and vocabulary drills. Real reading materials should be used, rather than texts, and grammar should be dealt with through readings concisely and conceptually. Speaking skills can be practiced in many non-classroom situations and in class. (CHK)
