Open Slovak Language Courses

   

 The IOM Migration Information Centre (MIC) organizes Open Slovak Language Courses for foreigners, which are available for:  

  • citizens of non-EU/EEA countries who have temporary, permanent or tolerated stay in Slovakia, including applicants for temporary refuge and persons granted temporary refuge in Slovakia ("departees")
  • EU citizens with a university degree  
  • foreign university students studying at university in Slovakia 

Open Slovak Language Courses organised by MIC are not certified language courses. They serve as a first contact with the Slovak language and are recommended for complete beginners.  

  • They are free of charge and without entrance tests 
  • They are intended for adult participants who have not attended these courses in the past (the course is not intended for children)
  • They are taught using interactive teaching methods, during which the emphasis is mainly on conversation and focus on learning the basics of the Slovak language in real situations and everyday communication (e.g. in the grocery store, at the bank, at work, with friends, at the doctor's office, etc.)
  • They are used to expand vocabulary and learn basic grammar

How do the free Open Slovak Language Courses work?   

  • Lessons are 90 minutes long and take place at least 2 times a week
  • Lessons are usually taught in 3-month cycles
  • Group size is usually 20-25 participants  
  • Courses take place online or in person (in selected locations in Slovakia)
  • Courses are also linked to basic socio-cultural orientation about life in Slovakia
