    I am Russian native living in Delhi for 19 years. Thank you very much for your detail info regarding language courses in India. Can you please advise how I can find a vacancy for teaching Russian. Government institutions employ only those who have a master degree in philology, but I have an engineering degree.

      Most of the Government institutions indeed require relevant degrees or diplomas. However, you can try in various private institutes offering Russian program though there aren’t many centers. Besides, you can send me your resume.
