“Two languages do not take away, they add”

What is it like for a student who speaks Hungarian at home and Slovak on the street? We asked a teacher at a local school.

What is the biggest challenge?

According to the teacher, the most important thing is that children see two languages not as a burden but as an opportunity.

Whoever thinks in two languages understands two worlds.
