Czech language courses at the University of Konstanz
Are you planning to study abroad in the Czech Republic? Does your humanities programme focus on Slavic studies? Do you have family or friends in the Czech Republic? Or do you just enjoy learning other languages?
Our Czech courses are open to all students, staff and guest auditors at the University of Konstanz and teach you Czech in a hands-on way: by speaking with others, doing role plays, engaging in discussions and asking/answering questions. After each class, you can review what you have learned with the listening, reading and grammar exercises assigned as homework. The goal is to build your confidence in speaking Czech and to help you see the language as a resource that opens doors to the country and its people.
Courses for beginners, advanced learners and heritage speakers
The next level 1 course for beginners starts in the winter semester. In a total of six semesters, you can complete level A2.
If you would like to get a first taste of the language and learn a few key phrases and sentences, you are welcome to join the basic "START" course for Czech in the summer semester.
Depending on the level of interest, advanced courses (at the B and C levels) are also offered from time to time. If you would like to take an advanced Czech course, please email me so I know who is interested.
We also welcome students to join our courses who already have learned (a little) Czech from family members and would like to improve their skills and learn the written language better. I will be happy to recommend a course that fits your language level.
What course level is right for me?
You aren't sure which course to take? Please write me an email, and I will be happy to arrange an appointment (also via Zoom) to find out which of our courses is the best fit for you.
