Ukrainian Language Classes For Adults – September 2025

Once again, we are pleased to offer Ukrainian language classes. We are very fortunate to have Alla Dudka as our instructor. Alla has been offering classes for the past three years and we very much appreciate her expertise. Our classes are at a beginner level with the following three options:

Beginners Level 1: Designed for students with no prior experience in Ukrainian or those who only know the alphabet and a few basic words. The weekly lessons will focus on foundational vocabulary and simple phrases. Classes take place on Wednesday evenings for 1 hour via Zoom.

Beginners Level 2: For students with some Ukrainian language experience. Participants in this level are familiar with basic vocabulary, can build simple dialogues and texts, and have been introduced to Ukrainian grammatical cases. This class is ideal for those who have completed at least 2–3 lesson sets and have a solid basic understanding of reading and speaking. Classes are held on Monday evenings for 1 hour via Zoom.

Intermediate Level: This class is for students who have been studying Ukrainian for 2–3 years. Participants are comfortable holding basic conversations and continue to build confidence in grammar and conversational fluency. Emphasis is placed on mastering grammar structures and improving natural speaking skills. Classes are held on Wednesday evenings for 1 hour via Zoom.
