Here is a link to a set of Russian Language lessons by a Professor at Bucknell University. http://www.departments.bucknell.edu/russian/language/

It's been a while since this was posted and I thought it might be interesting.

I bought the course.  It's very unprofessional in it's design but the content is quite good.  I have never completed the last 20% or so.  Some of the things they tell you to think of to help you remember are ridiculous but a lot of them help.

The best part about the course is that it actually teaches you grammar rules one by one (no memorizing phrases).  The worst part is that it does it all using the English alphabet (transliteration) and it doesn't help you to learn the Russian alphabet.  Overall, I am very glad I bought it and I think it has helped me immensely.

I think you'll like it if you can get over the crudely done interface.  What I learned was sure worth more than 30 bucks.

Hope that helps,

John
