3 weeks 2018 Armenian Studies Summer School

This was a 360-degree experience. I really appreciated the cultural trips around Armenia and the cohesion with the Persian Summer School students, that made the whole stay in Yerevan a more comprehensive and nice human experience.

I think that the lessons were very successfull: I arrived with no knowledge of modern Armenian and at the end of only three weeks I felt able to have some basic conversations and to read fluently a text.

The teacher was very patient and totally able to mediate the different levels of the students. I highly suggest to participate in one of these Summer Schools to have a totally new view of what learning a language can be.

“Armenian studies summer school was the experience which made my dream about visiting Armenia and speaking Armenian come true. I already know I will return for sure as I´ve found new inspirations and ideas for my research and now I have even bigger motivation to develop my language skills – maybe in the Winter School this time.”
