Martina

My name is Martina. At the language school ¡Hola! academy I teach Spanish, Slovak and English for children. I have enjoyed learning new languages since I was a child and once I came across Spanish, I was completely captivated by it. The people, culture, history, food, mentality, and the language engulfed me so much that I decided to study interpreting and translation at the Faculty of Philosophy of Comenius University in Bratislava. I graduated in 2015, specializing in my dream department of Slovak and Spanish.

¡Hola! My name is Iván. I teach Spanish and English. I earned a degree in Advertising and Public Relations and worked for many years as a journalist and radio host until becoming a certified Spanish as a foreign language teacher from the University of Leuven. I love using a sense of humor to talk about Spanish history and culture, creating an entertaining yet educational atmosphere in my classes. As a native Spanish speaker and pop culture enthusiast, it's very difficult for me to run out of conversation.

Katarína

Hi! My name is Katka. At the language school ¡Hola! Akadémia, I teach Spanish, English, and Slovak. During high school, I fell in love with Spanish and learned it on my own. Later, I studied it along with English at the Faculty of Arts of Comenius University in Bratislava, majoring in translation and interpreting. Thanks to this, I can view language learning from two perspectives: that of a self-taught learner and a professional. In my classes, I aim to create a relaxed atmosphere while encouraging students to actively engage with the language. That’s why I’m happy to help you master (not only) Spanish.

Silvia

My name is Silvia, and at ¡Hola! Akadémia, I’ll teach you the beautiful Spanish language. I’ve always loved languages, so right after finishing a bilingual high school, I moved to Madrid to study at the Universidad Complutense, where I earned a degree in Hispanic Philology. I lived 13 wonderful years in Spain. Now, my goal is to continue sharing my passion for Spanish here in Slovakia, which is why I work as a language instructor. In our classes, we’ll also learn a lot about Spanish culture, and if you're up for it, I’ll gladly take you on an imaginary journey through Spain’s cities, landmarks, and traditions. I’m really looking forward to meeting you!

Since childhood, I have watched Spanish telenovelas and listened to Spanish songs. I have remained faithful to this language to this day.

You might not know this, but German is the most widely spoken language in Europe by the number of native speakers, with approximately 120 million people. You can use German in countries like Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, and even Luxembourg. With knowledge of German, you can travel through all German-speaking countries, improve your career opportunities, or study at a prestigious university abroad. Be sure to put your knowledge to use when visiting beautiful natural landscapes and mountains, reading quality literature, watching films, or enjoying hot chocolate at Christmas markets.

Nóra

Szia! My name is Nóra. At the ¡Hola! Academy language school I teach Hungarian, and I can also prepare tailor-made tutoring in it for you. Since childhood I have been close to literature and languages, which became my passion. Hungarian is not only my native language but also an important part of my identity and culture, which I enjoy sharing with other students. I am fascinated by how language opens new possibilities for communication and understanding between people. I studied Hungarian language at the Faculty of Philosophy of Comenius University in Bratislava, where I focus on research into Central European literature and cultural identity. At the same time, I am also engaged in pedagogical training, because teaching for me is not only a job, but also a calling. I look forward to our classes together!
