Slovene for Foreign Learners

Slovene language courses are intended for all whose first language is not Slovene, but who wish to learn it, as they would like to get to know the culture and habits of the Slovene people, improve their Slovene communication skills and experience the country in a more authentic manner.

Slovene language courses are designed for everyone whose native language is not Slovene but who want to learn it. They aim to help participants understand the culture and customs of Slovenes, seek employment opportunities, communicate more effectively in Slovene, and experience Slovenia more authentically.

Why learn Slovene:

  • Because a strong command of Slovene is a crucial factor for a successful life in Slovenia.
  • Because you need Slovene language skills in your workplace.
  • Because it will facilitate the successful completion of the exam required for Slovenian citizenship.

INDIVIDUAL COURSE AND DUO COURSE - ONSITE AT DOBA OR ONLINE

We tailor the content to your preferences, and the course follows a schedule that is individually adaptable, on days and times that suit you best.

Individual learning is a solution for those with numerous commitments and a fast-paced work schedule, making it difficult to dedicate time for language learning on weekends or enroll in courses lasting several months with fixed schedules.

You can opt for in-person lessons at DOBA or an online Slovene course.

'The advantages of an individual in-person or online course at DOBA include complete flexibility in terms of scheduling and frequency of meetings, instructors fully adapt to your desired course content, learn at your own pace, and receive dedicated attention for faster progress in learning.'

INDIVIDUAL LEARNING 

In this case, the contents of the course are adapted to your personal preferences. Similarly, also the days and the number of lessons are tailored to your personal needs and desires.

Individual learning thus represents an ideal solution for everyone who cannot attend the usual forms of the courses due to the nature of their occupational liabilities which prevent them to attent the lessons at the weekens and/or taking part in the longer forms of the courses that can last for several months.  

Hereby, we invite you to choose and individual course of the Slovene language.
