Within the project “Learning Serbian as a heritage language through an online group course”, the Academic Serbian Association invites all the people from the Serbian diaspora, age 14 to 20, to apply for a free group course of the Serbian language via Skype. 

Under the sponsorship of the Ministry of Culture and Information of the Republic of Serbia, we continue to promote and realize online classes. The goal of the project is to promote the Serbian language in the diaspora through peer education intended for the youth in the diaspora. 

Serbian-speaking people from the diaspora, ages 14 to 20, can apply for a free group course of the  Serbian language via Skype until the 13th of June 2021. During this course, their mentors will be teachers from the Academic Serbian Association, accredited by the Ministry of Education, Science and Technological Development. Application requirements are that the students haven’t attended any Serbian as a heritage language course via Skype in Academic Serbian Association and that they have to share the post about the course from the Facebook ASA profile on their Facebook profiles.

The main goal of the project is learning/ preserving the Serbian language and Cyrillic alphabet, as well as connecting Serbian young people from all over the world. Accredited teachers of the Academic Serbian Association will hold the group classes via Skype to the youth in the diaspora.

The course will start on the 20th of June 2021 and will end on the 31st of July 2021. By the end of the course, the students will receive a certificate for a completed course, issued by the Academic Serbian Association.

The classes will be carried out twice a week (the duration of a class will be 90 minutes), on dates which the students and the teacher agree on. The Academic Serbian Association will make sure the classes will be carried out properly.
