ALL ABOUT SLOVAK
At Slovak Friends, Slovak isn’t just taught—it’s lived. We focus solely on the Slovak language, which means every class, every conversation, every activity is designed to help you truly connect with it.
But we go beyond grammar and vocabulary. We mentor our students—children and adults alike—helping them grow into confident, independent learners who can use Slovak naturally in real-life situations.
REALLY SMALL GROUPS
In our school, “group courses“ means from 3 to 6 people in the group – 5 is the maximum for online learning and 6 is the maximum for in-class learning. We are not fans of mass teaching because we want to emphasize individual approach and enough room to speak for each student.
LEARNING SLOVAK? EASIER THAN YOU THINK!
With Slovak Friends, learning the language doesn’t have to be overwhelming—it can actually be enjoyable and inspiring. Our courses are led by experienced native Slovak teachers who are more than just instructors—they’re your friendly guides, ready to support you, share tips, and cheer you on every step of the way.
We specialize in Slovak for Foreigners and offer a wide range of course times to fit your schedule. Not sure which course is right for you? No problem—just reach out! We’re happy to help you find the perfect fit.
Whether you prefer learning in person in our cozy classroom in the heart of Bratislava, or online from anywhere in the world, we’re here to make Slovak as easy and welcoming as it can be.
BEYOND THE CLASSROOM
At Slovak Friends Language School, we believe that learning Slovak shouldn’t stop when the lesson ends—it’s a living experience that continues outside the classroom.
In class, we’ll help you build a solid foundation in the language, focusing on practical skills and clear communication. But we also know that real confidence comes from using Slovak in everyday life.
That’s why we bring learning to life through fun and friendly events—like cooking traditional Slovak dishes, cozy pub nights, decorating gingerbread cookies, and more. These experiences not only boost your language skills but also connect you to the culture, the community, and to new friends.
Join us—and discover that learning Slovak can be as joyful as it is meaningful.
MEET THE HEART BEHIND SLOVAK FRIENDS
Slovak Friends began in 2016 with Katarina’s heartfelt dream: to help foreigners experience Slovakia not just as tourists, but as welcome guests—almost like visiting a good friend. A passionate folklorist at heart, Katarina believes the soul of a place reveals itself through its culture. For her, exploring Slovakia isn’t only about the famous landmarks—it’s about its traditions, people, nature, and folklore. That vision became the essence of Slovak Friends.
In 2019, Katarina’s longtime friend Zuzana joined the journey. The two met in primary school and have been close ever since. Zuzana brings over 16 years of experience as a dedicated teacher, known for helping her students not just learn the Slovak language, but also feel at home through it. Many of them say her lessons made all the difference in their ability to integrate and connect with Slovak life.
Together, Katarina and Zuzana combined their passions—travel and language, tradition and community—to create something truly special: a space where people can study Slovak and discover Slovakia in a way that feels personal, inspiring, and full of heart.
