Summary/Abstract: The purpose of this study is to reveal the benefits of getting students from the end of level A1 or from the beginning of level A2 according to European Common Framework of Reference, to keep a diary in teaching Russian as a foreing language. We will try to explain the studied topic with concrete examples from our professional experiences at Ankara University TOMER. We will stand on contribution of keeping a diary especially in learning "perfective and imperfective cases of verbs" and "motion verbs" as the most difficult issues in Russian language, giving examples from the diaries of students. This study also aims to prove that, getting students to keep a diary lets them express their thoughts in writing freely.
