Take a part-time
Romanian course in the heart of Central London on the
University of
Westminster's Modern Languages Evening Programme
Beginner &
Post-beginner levels
Romanian is a Romance language spoken by 24-28
million people, and with Bulgarian is the newest official language
of the European Union. Although the Romanian
language has certain features that are unfamiliar to English
speakers, there are many words you will recognise from other
European languages, especially French, Italian and Spanish.
The Blue Guide describes Romania as one of the most beautiful
countries of South-East Europe, and many will already be familiar
with its unique natural beauty, medieval towns and majestic
castles. But perhaps the most appealing and unforgettable is
Romanian hospitality, as anyone who has
experienced it will confirm.
You can take a part-time Romanian evening
class in Central London at the University of Westminster, just a
few minutes from Oxford Circus.
The University of Westminster has always had an extensive
programme of evening classes for adults. On the Modern Languages
Evening Programme we have beginner and post-beginner
part-time Romanian courses.
Our part-time Romanian
evening classes run from September to May at our Central London
Regent Street campus. They are taught by experienced language
teaching professionals who are native speakers of the language or
equivalent. Adult students of all ages and nationalities from a
wide range of backgrounds take part-time Romanian
courses with us. You can also join a Romanian
evening class in January for the second semester if you already
have some knowledge of Romanian.
To find out on which evening our
part-time Romanian courses are held, which
levels are available this year and class times, see Timetables.

Teaching approach
New vocabulary and constructions are presented orally using
communicative methods with strong emphasis on speaking and
listening. The aim is to teach the grammar without over-emphasising
it or forcing the pace. Where necessary, explanations are
supplemented by handouts.
Other activities
If students are interested, trips can be organised to
Romanian events, a restaurant, etc.
