Course description: Level 4 is for those who have successfully completed Ukrainian Upper Intermediate or a similar course and are familiar with main grammar structures: declension of nouns and adjectives (both singular and plural) in all cases, imperfective and perfective aspects of verbs, reflexive verbs, verbs of motion, present, past and future tenses. Please note that this course does not require impeccable or extensive knowledge of these structures but students should be familiar with all of them.

Linguistic and cultural knowledge is reinforced and broaden by authentic materials, texts and videos.
