Instructor
Kristin Edwards (Kristina Robertovna) has been teaching Russian language and literature for over 10 years. She has an M.A. in International Affairs from George Washington University and an M.A. in Slavic Languages and Literature from the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
Her courses in modern Russian help students to become confident and adept Russian-speakers. The courses will draw upon the language’s cultural backdrop and its interaction with the language spoken today. We will look at (and, hopefully, delight in) a few of the ways that the beauty of Church Slavonic and Russian Orthodoxy are hidden inside modern Russian. Mrs. Edwards-Kubrina hopes that the rigor of learning Russian will enrich and beautify the minds, hearts, and everyday lives of students, much as it has in her own family. She lives in Wyoming and serves as the choir director at her local parish.
Ms. Kristin Edwards-Kubrina teaches 5 courses this year.
