Summer School of Slavonic Languages in Olomouc

The Summer School of Slavonic Languages (SSSL) at the Philosophical Faculty of "Univerzita Palackého" in Olomouc organizes courses of Czech, Slavonic, Russian or Polish language for foreigners. The Summer School is designed for a public who is interested in Czech language, literature, history, and culture. 

The programme comprises also courses for beginners. English and Czech are communicative languages used according to student’s level. The lessons are complemented with additional events – film club, theatre workshop (supervised by actors of Moravian Theatre), workshop of folklore dances, two one-day trips and a weekend trip to Prague (excursions: 26.72014 ; 1.-3.8.2014 and 9.8.2014), etc.

At the end each student of the SSSL will receive a certificate stating the achieved language level (based on test results). The four-week SSSL course corresponds to one academic semester/term of Czech philology at the University.
