Let's talk friendship,

Whether you’re a university student or attending a language school, building relationships with your classmates will make your studies more enjoyable. Czech classmates may seem reserved at first, but once they warm up to you, they’re incredibly supportive and loyal friends.

Find friends

Collaborate on Projects: Offer to help in Czech, even if it’s just small tasks. Saying „Mohu něco udělat?“ (Can I do something?) shows initiative and makes you approachable.

Join Clubs and Societies: Most universities in Czechia have student clubs for everything—from hiking to debate. There’s often an international student organization to help you get involved.

Start Small Conversations: Use simple questions like „Jak dlouho tu studuješ?“ (How long have you been studying here?) to get to know your classmates.

Your willingness to engage in Czech, even with simple sentences, can build bridges and create friendships that last beyond your studies.

Keep on trying and let us know here in the comments.

Happy connecting.
