During the first year of study, the Preparatory Department provides high-quality language training for foreign students, which is delivered by the Department of Ukrainian Language and General Linguistics. Experienced and creative teachers use modern interactive teaching methods. Everyday speech skills (A1-A2) can be reached after two months of training. Due to our unique methodology, our graduates master the Ukrainian language at the level of native speakers (C1-C2) by the end of the academic period. It should be noted that about 30% of the graduates of our center have successfully implemented themselves as translators of the Ukrainian language in their native countries, in particular in China, Latin America, Palestine, and Germany.

 

       Language learning goes hand in hand with learning the culture, which contributes to the rapid adaptation of foreigners. Classes are always held in a friendly atmosphere. During the studies, teachers pay considerable attention to extracurricular activities, such as excursions, concerts and TV performances

 

 

Teachers’ professional experience includes a number of textbooks, manuals, and dictionaries.

The teaching staff boldly accepts the challenges of our time. Since 2019, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we have experience in successfully combining classes in online and offline formats. The results of training indicate the effectiveness of the applied methodology.

 

           During the studying at the Preparatory Department, foreigners receive a sufficient level of language knowledge to acquire a future profession. Students who have successfully passed the exam tests receive a Certificate of Completion of the Preparatory Department to certify their level of knowledge.
