Let's try out the new lesson format? Storytelling is always a great idea for learning languages, so I've prepared the story in Ukrainian for beginners, added a tiny bit of useful grammar and shadowing practice in the end. This comprehensible Ukrainian lesson will help you improve your listening and speaking skills!

Let me know what do you think, would you like to see more lessons like this?

Translation of the story into English:
Meet Olesya. She is a student. Olesya came to Kyiv to study at the university. Now she is talking to her grandmother in Zoom and showing her the city.

Grandma, look, this is my university. We go here for lectures and seminars.
And this is our dining room, here we have lunch with fellow students.
And this is a coffee shop. Here we buy coffee and desserts.
Olesya, you said that you go to yoga every morning, but where do you practice yoga?
In the park. Here, by the river. And then I often walk along the embankment. It is very beautiful here!
Oh, how beautiful! I did not think that Kyiv is so green!
Yes, there is beautiful nature and beautiful architecture. I love walking around the old town. Here, look, this is the Kyiv Opera House, it is very beautiful! The girls and I went here yesterday and watched the ballet.
How wonderful! I adore ballet! Olesya, where do you buy groceries?
I usually buy food at this supermarket, but I buy vegetables, fruits and berries at the market.
Good. Is there a pharmacy and a hospital nearby?
Yes, there is a clinic here, which has both a pharmacy and dentistry. So, don't worry, grandma.
Okay, I'm glad you're okay. Take care, granddaughter!
Thank you, grandma. Bye!
