[Unicum] Hungarian Language Classes Starting in January

Romantic … exotic … unique.  Make new friends while learning Hungarian. The Kossuth Foundation offers dynamic, group lessons for adults at four levels, beginner to advanced. Classes meet once a week at downtown DC locations.  Meeting days and times vary by level—see the descriptions below. The teachers all are native speakers, and all have experience teaching Hungarian. The Hungarian Language Program integrates speaking, listening, reading, and writing while learning about Hungarian culture. If interested, please contact Ildiko at Kossuth Foundation: ildikokf@gmail.com

Classes are not held on federal holidays.  Schedules are subject to change due to inclement weather or other reasons. The minimum enrollment at each level is 4 students.

 

Beginner:

The emphasis of this introductory class is on pronunciation, vocabulary building, basic grammar, and basic conversation. This course is for those students with very little or no ability in the language. Introduction to basic listening, reading, speaking, and writing skills will be addressed throughout the course. Dialogues, readings, and cultural notes will be introduced in class. Previous Hungarian knowledge is not required.

Classes meet on Wednesday evenings, 6:30 p.m. – 9:00 p.m., near Metro Center.

Starting date: January 13, 2016

Suggested donation for the 10 weeks of instruction is $200.

Materials used: MagyarOK book and work book

 

Advanced Beginner:

This course is the continuation of the Beginner level, and is for students who had formal instruction some time ago, or have previous informal exposure to the language. Building on the basic foundation provided in the introductory level, students will learn to conduct simple conversations on a range of everyday subjects. Listening, reading, speaking, and writing skills will be addressed throughout the course.

Classes meet on Saturday mornings, 9:30 a.m. – noon, near Metro Center.

Starting date: January 16, 2016

Suggested donation for the 10 weeks of instruction is $200.

Materials used: MagyarOK course book and work book

 

Intermediate:

Students at this level need to have a solid, basic foundation of the language, and are looking to expand their knowledge of the more complex forms of Hungarian. Listening, reading, speaking, and writing skills will be addressed throughout the course.

Classes meet on Monday evenings, 6:30 p.m. – 9:00 p.m., near Metro Center.

Starting date: January 11, 2016

Suggested donation for the 15 weeks of instruction is $300.

Materials used: MagyarOK course book and work book

 

Advanced:

If you can speak Hungarian with ease, you'll enjoy these language instructions during which you'll practice your linguistic skills as well as improve your vocabulary, pronunciation, and fluency. You will also learn more about Hungarian culture, and discover new expressions by reading or listening to news, or other current articles.

Classes meet on Thursday evenings, 6:30 p.m. – 9:00 p.m., near McPherson Square.

Starting date: January 21, 2016

There will be no class on 2/18, and late in the semester, there will be a 3-week break with no classes on 3/31, 4/7, and 4/14.  The last class is scheduled for May 5.

Suggested donation for the 12 weeks of instruction is $240.
