LEARN SLOVENE IN MARIBOR – GENERAL INFORMATION
At AMIKUM / IZS (Educational Center for Slovene language) you can learn Slovene effectively. We are specialized in teaching Slovene as a second foreign language. We offer individual courses of Slovene for foreigners and teach Slovene according to our own method and on the basis of our experience with foreigners from different countries.
Our experience teaches us that learning Slovene is not so difficult for foreigners who come from slavic countries (Ex Yugoslavia, Russia, Bulgaria, Ukraine). As these languages are somehow familiar to the Slovene language, learners are able to learn and speak Slovene in a few months.
New! Now you can learn Slovene via Skype!
Or you can learn Slovene online!
For foreigners who come from German and Roman areas (France, Italy, Germany, England) Slovene is harder and takes more time to master it.
Our courses are based on a personal approach. Individuals can learn Slovene at their own pace. Our courses are tailor made for the needs of learners: content wise and time wise.
We have conceived our courses of Slovene language for absolute beginners, and for those who have already mastered the basics but want to further improve their speaking, reading and writing skills.
