The BEST teacher, explains concepts in a way that is easy to understand, and is both professional and personable. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to learn in a practical way that makes sense.

Якуб чудовий вчитель! Він пояснює матеріал чітко і зрозуміло, що значно полегшує процес навчання. Заняття проходять цікаво і зовсім ненапружено, що робить вивчення мови приємним і ефективним.

Since I've started my Slovak lessons with Jakub, I feel much more comfortable with the language (perhaps thanks to his "učebnica"), learning with him has never been boring or discouraging: he's definitely a good rooter as well as a good teacher.

С Якубом займаємось вже майже рік. Заняття проходять класно, по книгам які він сам розробив. Дуже рекомендую! Плюсом є те, що він в ідеалі знає українську і на прикладах пояснює різницю між мовами.

Frequently asked questions

1. Is it hard to learn Slovak?
No. With the right teacher, teaching materials and mindset you can achieve your goal of learning Slovak to a conversational level without problems.
2. How long does it take to learn Slovak?
It depends on your current level, your native language, where you live, how much time you can spend studying a week and your language learning experience. But generally speaking, my students reach conversational fluency in one or two years if they start from zero.
3. Do you teach Slovak to groups or individuals?
Both. I offer individual Slovak lessons and 3-month group courses. Group courses typically begin at the start of each season. For more information, feel free to contact me via email or Instagram.
4. How do I sign up for a Slovak course or a lesson?
For courses, there is a registration form at the Courses section. First choose your course, then fill out the information and pay to receive the link. For individual lessons, contact me via email or Instagram to check availability of time slots.
5. What kind of Slovak teaching materials do you offer?
For beginner and false beginner students I recommend my "Hej! A1 Complete beginner textbook" that includes grammar explanations, exercises, dialogues, audio recordings, answer key, dictionary and more. If you enjoy learning by reading and listening and already know the basics, I recommend "Bratislava a jej príbehy" — eleven short stories to improve your vocabulary and comprehension. For grammar overview, specifically verbs, you can get my book "Slovak verbs in a nutshell".
