Education

Education focuses mainly on the ability to communicate in the mother languages, but we also actively support writing and reading skills in Czech or Slovak.

Active use of mother tongues in a distant country is fundamental to maintaining culture and awareness of our countries of origin.

Even though we primarily communicate in English, we make an effort to actively preserve our native languages and also teach them to others. We start introducing our children to their native languages from a young age through playgroups, and we also offer more structured education in Czech or Slovak schools. Additionally, our friends and partners who are interested in learning our unique languages and are not daunted by the grammar intricacies, can enroll in adult language courses.
