What our students say.

“Slovak is a native language for many of us. We grew up hearing it, and thus, we naturally learned to speak Slovak even before we started school. But have you ever wondered how foreigners learn Slovak? That was the topic of this morning's discussion. Michaela Slivková Kirňaková hosted Slovak language instructor Ján Ferenčík, along with Yulia Veduta and Kamila Voloshyn from Ukraine.”
Our Slovak language teachers have local language teaching credentials…
