Speaking and understanding the local language in a foreign city is the quickest way to integrate yourself into the local society and daily life. Charles University Institute for Language and Preparatory Studies (UJOP), situated in the heart of Prague, makes it easy to learn or improve your Czech language skills with convenient studying on your own schedule and professional teachers. 

The Charles University Institute offers access to professional lecturers, interactive Czech courses, and modern classrooms – everything just a few steps from the National Theatre right in Prague city centre. Whether students need Czech for professional purposes or just want to make their life in the Czech Republic easier, UJOP will also teach them how to deal with practical tasks such as booking a table in a restaurant, handle health troubles with a Czech doctor or a broken car. 

Czech courses at UJOP are flexible and available for students of all levels. Whether you prefer studying online or in a classroom, you have options according to your own schedule and lifestyle. If you choose to study online, you will not only learn the Czech language from wherever you are, but also be given practical tools and materials to make your online studies successful. Courses are easy, comfortable, and usually a lot of fun, and they also bring immediate results. 

"At UJOP course I learnt how to make a phone call, write an e-mail, to order a doctor by phone, some goods... That definitely helped me. Also, without UJOP I couldn't have got a good result in the entrance exams to the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague."

In case you wish for the fastest results, the six- or eight-week intensive Czech courses for foreigners are the best option. If you are not in a hurry and have limited time possibilities, choose from UJOP Czech evening courses (in person or online) and if you wish to combine, UJOP one- or two-semester Czech courses will make your Czech perfect. Enjoy the beauty of the Czech language while studying it with other students. 

However, UJOP also offers flexible individual courses if you need another timetable, or you do not want to study in a group – individual courses are tailored to your needs. Other options cover preparation for exams or retraining Czech courses. Enrolment and payment are possible monthly, and the courses are open all year round.

Courses take place in modern classrooms in the very heart of Prague near the National Theatre, which makes them convenient in terms of transport and location. Students can interact with people from all over the world in small groups (4-8 students) when taking an in-person class.

All classes are taught by highly professional teachers with many years of experience teaching foreigners. Their level can be attested to by the fact that not only foreigners learn languages with them, but Czech teachers also undergo advanced training at our Institute.

Courses attach foremost importance to immersion in the cultural life of the Czech Republic as part of the learning process. Students can attend cultural events or go on excursions and every semester, students and teachers organize a recital and an amateur theatre stage; plus, students take part in an essay competition throughout their course.

Another interesting fact about UJOP is they also specialize in foundation programmes for international students who wish to study at Czech universities (in Czech or English). The fields of study include Economics, Engineering and IT, Humanities, Arts and Architecture, but the greatest interest is in Medicine.

Whether you need Czech for personal, professional, or academic purposes, do not miss the opportunity to obtain a deeper understanding of the language and culture of the country you live in with UJOP Czech language courses.
