All courses, talks with local students and international students i met were in English language so I could practice everyday. Moreover I was attending Slvak language courses to make everyday life easier.

Local people don't speak English so in everyday situations sometimes it may be a little difficult to communicate especially in the beginning. Concerning the university, the teachers and students where more than understandable but the receptionists and generally the rest could have been better. (actually in the dormitoy they HAVE to be better)

All my experiences were in english because slovak is completely different language and is very difficult to learn. I didn't felt any difficulties during classes with the professors
