🎉 And here we go again! It's that time of year when we start introducing our optional courses for the Autumn Semester 2026/2027.
We are delighted to begin with a course led by our wonderful duo of Irenkas – AJ0222 Cvičení v anglické transkripci. 🇬🇧

Would you like to further improve your English pronunciation and phonemic transcription, explore the fascinating world of connected speech, and gain greater confidence in recognising and producing authentic spoken English? Then this course is just for you!

📅 Wednesdays | 14:00–14:50

Don't hesitate to sign up – places tend to fill up very quickly, so reserve your spot before it's too late!
We are looking forward to seeing you there and immersing ourselves together in the beauty of English pronunciation. 😊🎙️
