Since its founding in 2002, the Language school PELICAN Brno organizes individual, group and company courses and one-year lasting post-secondary course of English, German and other languages with students status and Czech language courses for foreigners . PELICAN is located in the very centre of Brno, Czech Republic.
Language school PELICAN organizes language exams in six world languages at various levels (A1, A2, B1, B2, C1). In our school, you can prepare for the exams in one of the preparatory courses. In 2018, our school officially became the preparatory centre for the Cambridge English Language Assessment.
Language teaching at PELICAN keeps pace with the rushing time by providing online languages courses “remotely” through the online communication platform Skype, as well as virtual online classes on the Moodle platform and other tools for the production of educational materials.
Language school PELICAN is engaged in several other activities beyond the scope of teaching itself. Most of these activities are covered by the non-profit organisation Association PELICAN, which seeks to promote innovation in education, intercultural understanding and cooperation, the inclusion of minorities and work with youth.
The activities of Association PELICAN build on the long-term efforts of the Language school PELICAN to expand and improve teaching methods in the language and other courses it provides. The main goal of the Association PELICAN is the methodological support and development of lecturers. Within the European educational projects and cooperation with organisations in the European and global scale, they support them by the development of educational materials, tools, teaching methods and new didactic approaches.
The Foundation runs courses and activities in various languages on topics related to building mental well-being, multilingualism and multiculturalism. We promote the idea of multiculturalism and multilingualism in Kraków and Małopolska and we promote the values of respectful communication, i.e. NVC (Non-Violent Communication). We operate on many levels: educational, social and integrational. We work directly with parents, children as well as with schools and kindergartens. We work on continuous development striving to achieve our objectives.
