I have 16 years of teaching experience (Czech, English and Spanish language). Czech is my mother tongue and I love everything about it and do my best to show the beauty of it to my students. I am an extremely patient and attentive teacher and I always come to my lessons in a good mood because I truly enjoy what I do. Learning languages myself is what keeps me aware of struggles students might encounter when they learn Czech. I never forget how challenging it is to start learning a new language!
I have a BA degree in Language Teaching (English and Spanish) and a bisemestrial course from Charles University in Prague at teaching Czech for foreigners. I have worked at a language school and taught both individuals and groups and various age categories. Later I started teaching as a freelancer and moved most of my teaching to an online environment. I have been teaching mostly on Skype for 7 years now and enjoy teaching students from all over the world.
Here are some testimonies of a few students of mine: “Zuzka is an excellent teacher. Czech is a complicated language, but she teaches it step by step and always considers the interest of the student. The structure of her lessons allows the student to repeat what has been learned and then focus on something new.”
– Kristina from Germany
“Zuzka is vibrant, fun, and knowledgeable. My daughter is an English speaker of Czech descent taking Czech lessons with Zuzka - she truly enjoys them. Highly recommend!”
– Ivana from the United States
“Zuzka is a professional, highly educated, and amazingly talented Czech teacher. She is very patient and always gives you positive feedback. She never fails to bring her smile to each lesson. After just a few months of learning with her, I am amazed at how much I can understand the Czech speakers around me. “
