You’ve probably heard that when it comes to learning, children are like sponges.  They soak up everything – including language!  Research shows that children who speak multiple languages benefit cognitively, culturally and economically. Children acquire language through interaction especially with other children. Children surrounded by conversation will acquire the language that is being used around them. And it is just as easy for a child to acquire two or more languages at the same time, as long as they are regularly interacting with speakers of those languages.  Our goal is to introduce the Slovak language and culture in an informal, fun and practical way for children and teens including conversation, games, song, dance, reading and writing and to provide parents with materials to help assist young Slovak learners in their home settings.

 

 

The Cleveland Slovak School for Children will begin 17 week Slovak language classes on January 10, 2009 at St. Joseph Byzantine Catholic Church, 8111 Brecksville Road, Brecksville, Ohio.  The instructor is Mrs. Miriam Visnovsky, a religion and ethics teacher trained in Slovakia.  Prior to Mrs. Visnovsky’s move to the greater Cleveland area, she was employed as an elementary teacher in Kosice, Slovakia.  

 
Sessions for children ages 3 to 7 years (Level 1) begin at 9:00 a.m. until 9:45 a.m. 

Sessions for children age 8 and older or adults with no Slovak language background (Level 2) begin at 10:00 a.m. until 10:45 a.m. 

Classes for adults who have some previous Slovak language knowledge (Level 3) begin at 11:00 a.m. until 12:30 p.m. 

The cost is $100 for the first student in a family and $50 for each additional student in the family which includes materials costs.
