Students arrive in Belgrade on Sunday and can accommodate, get to know the city, have some rest and prepare for the week to come. The Summer School begins on Monday, when a placement test will be administered. The test is intended to place you in an appropriate group. The classes are held from Monday to Friday, 9:00 - 12:20 (14.10). Saturday and Sunday are normally intended for rest and excursions to many interesting sites out of town; however, you can have extra classes on weekends, but they are not included in the fee (extra payment required).
Course in Serbian
By attending the course you will gain new and improve your current language abilities. After a placement test taken upon the arrival students will be divided into groups according to their knowledge. There are 6 groups: beginners 1, beginners 2, intermediate 1, intermediate 2, advanced and proficiency. Each group will have an appropriate syllabus, a language instructor, and will work separately from other groups. The emphasis is on developing communicative skills. The theoretic, i.e. systematic aspect of the language is presented in the ways that are most suitable to the needs of every respective level. Classes are held on weekdays from 9:00 to 12:20 (14:10).
You will have 10, 20 or 30 language classes per week. You are not required to attend all the classes, but if you need our language certificate, you are not allowed to miss more than 10%.
