Our podcast is the perfect tool for you. Studies show that the key to mastering a second language is through repetition and active processing. That's why each episode of our podcast features a story in Slovak, followed by a sentence-by-sentence retelling that alternates between Slovak and English. This approach not only allows you to fully understand and absorb the vocabulary and grammar but also provides a bilingual support to aid your listening comprehension. But we don't stop there. Research in sociolinguistics highlights the importance of culture in language learning, which is why we provide a list of vocabulary words and a transcript of the audio to help you understand the cultural context of the story.

Our podcast is not just for language learners, it's also for travelers or people who wants to connect with their roots. Are you planning a trip to Bratislava, Košice, or High Tatras? Maybe you want to speak Slovak with your grandparents from Banská Bystrica?

En: Marek sat on a bench in the emptied waiting room of the psychiatric department. Sk: Nábytok bol chladný, ale veľké okná umožňovali vstúpiť jemným slnečným lúčom skorej letnej popoludnia. En: The furniture was cold, but the large windows allowed gentle rays of early summer afternoon sunlight to enter. Sk: Marek hľadal odvahu pred stretnutím so svojou sestrou. En: Marek was gathering courage before meeting with his sister. Sk: Petra, jeho drahá sestra, bola teraz v mieste, ktoré si nikdy nepredstavoval.
