The Estonian Language Course aims to familiarize a wide range of international students not only with the Estonian language, but also with the country’s rich culture, history, art and lifestyle.
After a short written test students will be divided into two groups based on their initial proficiency in the Estonian language: the beginner group and the intermediate one. The three week intensive course contains 60 hours teaching language and the languages of instruction are Estonian and English. The course materials will be distributed during the course.
In the afternoons following language classes, specialised lectures and discussions will take place focusing in paticular on aspects of Estonian culture, history, art, music, and traditions.

The course is suitable for students of all levels of competence in the Estonian language, from beginners with no practical experience to conversationally capable speakers. 

A total of 3 ECTS credits will be awarded for the combined linguistic and cultural elements of the program.

The course fee is 420 Euro, but for students the fee is reduced to 390 Euro.
