These online reading courses are not just about reading; they are about immersing yourself in Croatia's rich culture while exploring its natural and culinary attractions and understanding some of the language's grammatical features. Typically offered in the summer, these courses are for those who want to brush up on their Croatian or keep busy until their next level course.
Croatian abeceda
Croatian abeceda reading course is not a passive reading experience; it's an interactive journey through Croatia. The course focuses on Croatian natural, cultural, and culinary attractions and is organized alphabetically, following the Croatian alphabet. We practice pronunciation, explain several grammatical forms, and learn new vocabulary.
Materials are included.
A Whimsical Journey Through Croatia
A Whimsical Journey Through Croatia is not a passive reading experience; it's an interactive journey through Croatia. We explore its natural, cultural, and culinary attractions through selected poems from my children’s poetry book Šaljivo putovanje Hrvatskom (A Whimsical Journey Through Croatia). I provide the texts and assign weekly readings, and together, we practice pronunciation, learn new vocabulary, and gain a deeper understanding of Croatian cases. The poems and short dialogs are in Croatian (the poems' translations are provided), and the accompanying texts on Croatian attractions are in English.
All participants will receive a free signed copy of the book Šaljivo putovanje Hrvatskom. This book will not only serve as a learning tool but also as a cherished memento of your journey through Croatia.
