Experienced Native Speaker from the UK

Hi! My lessons are engaging and I try to make the less enjoyable aspects of learning a language (e,g, grammar) more fun! I always cater to a student's needs – by thoroughly discussing the areas they need to improve on and the most effective way to do this. I believe it is very important for students to have the opportunity to speak.

I love traveling and reading (fiction & non-fiction) and am particularly interested in history, science, gender/feminism, linguistics/culture, ecology/environment, I also love hiking (especially in the wilderness), going to film festivals and trying different kinds of cuisine (as well as beer and wine!)
I've traveled widely in the Czech Republic, both for the hiking and for the architecture.

I have a Post-Graduate Certificate in Education (Masters in Pedagogy) from the UK in addition to a
Trinity Cert TESOL (TEFL certificate) from Prague. I also have a BSc in Peace Studies and a Masters in International Relations. I have taught both individuals and groups, ranging from levels B1-C2 (*I do not teach levels A0-A2), I have taught for a variety of purposes - e.g. General English, Conversational English and English for Specific Purposes. On top of that I have prepared students for FCE, CAE, CPE and IELTS (leading to success in these exams). I've also helped students prepare for presentations and interviews.

I always try to use authentic materials, such as articles from the Guardian, videos from Ted Talks/Ted Ed/Youtube, books and lyrics. I also try to recommend: websites, apps, books (fiction & non-fiction), films/movies and TV series to my students, so they can do some self-study at home. I also give students homework, review grammar and vocab/phrases from previous lessons. English is my native language, so I'm familiar with all the nuances of the language. I have a very clear British accent. I am also very passionate about sharing a language and culture that I love. I can teach you online using any of the following platforms - Zoom/Google Meet/Skype/WhatsApp/Teams or in-person/face to face (at your home/office or in a quiet cafe).
