Courses of Slovene

Slovene language courses are intended for those whose first language is not Slovene, however, they wish to learn it for different reasons. We offer various ways of learning Slovene in a stimulative environment, with experienced teachers and quality materials. We have more than 30 years of experience in the organising of courses and thousands of satisfied participants.

Types of courses

All courses are carried out in accordance with the publicly recognised programme, Slovene as a Second and Foreign Language. Courses vary in length, intensity and content. We are offering 4 schools (accompanying programme included: turist trips, cultural events, Slovene films, workshops …) and regular courses (no accompanying programme). At this courses the attention is equally divided amongst all the language skills of speaking, writing, listening and reading. We are also offering specialised language courses which are intended for a specific addressee or have specific objectives (preparation for the exams, course for students …).
