Dear Kyiv Independent community members,

We are launching a new benefit for our members! Starting this month, we’ll be offering free Ukrainian language lessons to the Kyiv Independent community.

We’ve heard from you that there is interest in Ukrainian culture and visiting Ukraine – and that some of you are already learning the language. We want to help you reach your goals!

The courses will be taught by Vitalii, a Ukrainian language teacher. The first lesson is planned for Tuesday, March 19.

If you’re interested in this opportunity, fill out this form here. Vitalii is able to teach large groups, and we’d like to gauge the interest and language level of those who would like to participate.

Here’s a few words from Vitalii to the community:

Hi there, I’m Vitalii and I’m originally from Ukraine’s central Poltava Oblast. I graduated from one of the best universities in Ukraine (in my opinion, of course), the Ivan Franko Lviv National University, where I studied International Relations. I have been working as a teacher for several years but I still know what it feels like to be a student — I’m currently learning Japanese! I look forward to meeting all the supporters of the Kyiv Independent who share my love for the Ukrainian language!

Looking forward to seeing you in class!

Sounds great! How long would a class be? The form suggests blocks of 3 hours.

This is fantastic! Is there any specific textbook or language learning guide you'd recommend that we get in advance?

Very happy to read this! I've been working on learning some basics using Duolingo and it will be very helpful to have some in-person instruction. Looking forward to visiting Ukraine after the victory to help with reconstruction.

I am extremely excited and looking so much forward to this. I have been trying to learn the language on my own and facing many challenges. I am sure this opportunity is something that I do not want to miss. Thanks a ton!
