Course outline
This two-week intensive Ukrainian for beginners course is designed to give participants the opportunity to learn the basics of the Ukrainian language and discover more about Ukraine’s culture in a short period of time. We will focus in particular on the practical use of the language in everyday situations. The course will cover reading, writing, listening, and speaking skills, with a greater focus on speaking practice. The course will lay the foundation for further study of the Ukrainian language. On completion of the course the participants are expected to achieve the equivalent of Level A1.1.
