Conversational Ukrainian 2

We are happy to present basic Ukrainian course for English speaking students. The course is easy to understand, contains a lot of audio, keeps students interested and it is not overwhelming.
This course can be used by teachers as well as by students as a teach yourself guide. The book is good for students who already a little familiar with Ukrainian, can read and know some words and phrases. Otherwise "Conversational Ukrainian 1: Teach yourself Guide for Beginners" must be done first.
The book contains explanations in English, unit by unit vocabulary as well as general word list in alphabetical order at the end of the book. All the texts and exercises are recorded.

How to work with the book

1. Read and listen to the text, make sure that you understand everything. Check new words with the vocabulary at the end of the lesson. Stressed vowels are shown by letters in bold, e.g. Роман where "а" should be pronounced a little bit longer. Stressed vowels are marked in the texts, in the grammar tables and tables with new verbs and examples.
2. Listen to the text sentence by sentence. Repeat each sentence. Do it until you feel comfortable with the text. We also recommend learning first 9 texts by heart.
3. Listen and read the grammar table. Listen and repeat until you remember the content of the table. The names of the cases are not important. You can name the cases by their endings: e.g. "a" form, or "у" form etc. Learn the endings together with the situation, that is, in a sentence.
4. When you learn a new verb, listen and repeat until you remember all the forms. Also listen and repeat the examples.
5. Do grammar exercises. New words are highlighted and can be found in the unit vocabulary.
6. Check yourself with the audio and the answer key at the end of the book.
7. The section "Розкажіть про себе" ("Tell about yourself") is meant to be used with a teacher.
