If you need Estonian for daily or professional communication,

We focus on developing your active vocabulary and enhancing the courage to speak. We practise real-life skills such as expressing opinion, giving advice, making comparisons, etc, i.e. everything that helps you to be an active listener and become an active communicator.

We combine business with pleasure using a variety of methods and activities such as pair work, group work, dialogues, information gap activities, vocabulary games, role plays, board games, etc.
By the end of the course you will know how to express your opinion on personal and public matters, give advice, handle problems, agree and disagree, show interest, etc.
