In Slovak language we differentiate between three genders:
Take online language lessons with a professional teacher
As Slovak language does not have articles in front of the nouns, it is harder to remember the genders of the words. However here are 2 tips:
However, this is only a general rule. To identify the gender you need to know the model of the noun - each gender has corresponding models. You can find more about this topic in Models of Slovak nouns.
You should also have in mind, that we distinguish between genders not only for people, but also for animals, things and actions..
Here are some examples:
Masculine | Feminine | Neutral |
---|---|---|
chlapec (a boy) | žena (a woman) | dievča (a girl) |
kôň (a horse) | mačka (a cat) | kura (a chicken) |
stôl (a table) | stolička (a chair) | pero (a pen) |
dej (plot) | aktivita (an activity) | behanie (running) |

Katarína is a very nice and knowledgeable teacher. She always was on time, had well prepared the materials and knows how to explain the Slovak language to a novice. However, I am sure she will also be a good teacher for more advanced speakers.

Hi there!
My name is Andrea and I'd like to be your Slovak teacher. :-)
I am a qualified teacher. I studied at the State Language School in Slovakia and I passed the General State Examination in English Language (C1-C2 level). I gained a Doctor of Philosophy degree (PhD.) in Social Work and completed an Additional Pedagogical Education. As a PhD student, I gained experience in teaching. I´ve more than four-year experience in teaching. I enjoy teaching, working with people and speaking in English.
We can focus on whatever you wish to practise and I can take you through a structured course and I will supply you with all of the required materials. Lessons dependent on the student's needs - grammar, speaking, writing, reading or listening. I can help you with all aspects of Slovak.
In our first lesson we'll get to know each other and I'll make an assessment of your needs. After that I'll create a plan for us to follow together.
I enjoy teaching in a fun, friendly and casual manner. Whether you are an advanced student or a beginner let me help you improve. Let’s connect in a trial lesson so I can learn more about your goals. See you soon! :-)

Looking forward to the rest of the course!

Hi! I’m Yasmina, a professional German, English, Russian and Slovak teacher for adults and teenagers. I am fluent in 4 foreign languages and I have sucessfuly passed C2 level exams for English and German. I have a Masters degree in foreign languages and cultures from Comenius University in Bratislava, Slovakia. During my studies I have done a couple of exchanges abroad (Germany, Belgium, Portugal, Italy, Qatar, Iceland, etc).
I have lived in 4 countries, therefore I know how challenging it may be - to learn and SPEAK foreign language afterwards. I’ve been teaching and learning languages for more than 8 years (3 years of teaching experience). I am absolutely sure, that your learning process starts, when you begin to speak. Therefore my lessons are mainly conversational, but you would need to do your homework at home :)
As a result, we can use your new knowledge during the lesson. Language learning is fun and a lot of hard work at the same time. But if you know what to do, than the process becomes much easier and enjoyable.
Here is the key information on the lessons/courses:
1. Lessons are tailored to your needs
2. All materials are provided
3. Before we start, during the trial lesson, I will test you level and we will develop a plan in order to reach your goal as soon as possible.
Any questions? Don’t hesitate to ask me!
All the best,
Yasmina

Yasmina organizes the lessons in a varied, easy-to-understand and competent manner, is always punctual and attentive. She also incorporates information about the country (recipes, music, ...) and always thinks of something new - I like it when the learning is playful. Yasmina gladly and patiently answers questions, even those that concern the mentality or dealing with Slovaks (especially Slovakian mother-in-law ...). Clear recommendation!

Hi there,
I am glad to meet you.
First of all, let me congratulate you on the decision to learn or improve a new language. In your case this is Bulgarian.
My country, Bulgaria, is a beautiful country with nice and hospitable people. It is an ancient land with a great history and rich culture. Having learned our language you will be able to get in touch freely with our good people and country.
I come from the town of Vidin, Bulgaria. I am a qualified English and Bulgarian teacher. I graduated back in 1972 from Sofia University with an MA in English Philology and Bulgarian Philology as a second subject. Since then I have spent most of my professional career teaching Bulgarian students.
First of all, we will have a 20-30-minute trial lesson during which we can get to know each other, set expectations towards the lessons and schedule the timetable. The next step is simple - we start learning the language of your choice!
Cannot wait to meet you and help you on your journey to learn Bulgarian.

Today we did a translation of a Bulgarian text about bribery. Again it was a combination of new vocabulary, grammar (tenses) and a very interesting and up-to-date topic. I always learn a lot of additional stuff with Angel like phrase, grammatical exceptions and funny little stuff.
