This class is aimed at students with no previous knowledge of Estonian. The course teaches basic grammar and some basic vocabulary of the Estonian language. The book E nagu Eesti is used as study material. In the seminar, we focus on the speaking and reading exercises that are part of the teaching material Keeleklikk, so that students can actively use their basic knowledge of Estonian.
