Read what my students say about learning Czech with me…
I started to study Czech in Ukraine, because I decided to study Medicine at Charles University. I needed to pass exams at Level B2 to have a chance to study for free as a foreign student. Andrea created a great detailed program for our lessons. I needed to talk with a native speaker and my biggest problem was writing. Andrea helped me to improve my grammar and diacritics. We had lessons 3 times per week for 2 months. And every time I had essay as a homework, we corrected it together, discussing all the mistakes. We had little time to prepare for exams, but we really worked a lot. So, as a result I passed B2 and enrolled in the University of my dream. So, Andrea played a great role in making my wishes come true. I totally recommend studying Czech with Andrea, because she is not just a good teacher, she is an absolutely incredible teacher and a nice person. You will certainly enjoy working with her.
I began taking Czech lessons with Andrea in order to speak with my Czech daughter-in-law’s family, as they don’t speak English.
When I decided to learn Czech, I did not realize how difficult it would be. However, Andrea is always very understanding and patient while answering any questions I may have. We use a book but also have had many conversation classes. Sometimes I write a little story in Czech so we can discuss it. Andrea provides the necessary corrections to the grammar in the story and we then discuss it for conversation practice.
One of the advantages of having Czech lessons with her is the availability of a flexible schedule. She is always most considerate if I have to cancel or rearrange a class.
We have just returned from a trip to Prague and it was fantastic to be able to communicate with everyone. I love speaking this beautiful language and think anyone can learn Czech with Andrea. Thanks Andrea!
Ahoj! I started learning Czech with Andrea about six months before moving to the Czech Republic for a ten-month student exchange. A year after starting lessons with her, I can say that Andrea really helped me, and changed the course of my exchange. I arrived in the Czech Republic with a comfortable command of basic phrases, a good bit of essential vocabulary, and a framework for navigating complicated Czech grammar. In other words, she gave me a huge head start. My host family and classmates were amazed at the amount of Czech I spoke when I arrived, and knowing a bit before I came allowed me to learn more quickly once I arrived in my Czech-speaking school. I didn’t always love the textbook we used- some activities seemed less useful than others. But Andrea was flexible and patient, and I feel very lucky to have found her lessons before going on exchange.
When I started learning Czech with Andrea, I was a complete beginner. Now I am able to speak Czech with my work colleagues in Prague, Ostrava and Brno and I can speak confidently with Czech people I meet in my daily life. One of my proudest moments was when Czechs stopped answering me in English and started replying in Czech! This would have been impossible without Andrea’s help. Andrea is an excellent teacher. She carefully prepares lessons to suit each individual’s ability and speed, she is patient and is very good at explaining even the most complex aspects of this difficult language. Czech can initially seem impossible to a foreigner but Andrea has helped me navigate a route around it so that every day I feel increasingly confident speaking. I very much recommend studying with her.
My name is Liran and I live in Switzerland. I study Czech because I have a family in Budweiss and I would like to communicate better with them and with the people from this pretty and very interesting country.
I can definitely recommend Andrea. She is a very professional and serious teacher, helpful and motivated. Thanks to her, I am now able to speak and understand people during my visits. I can even have some chat with the locals in the pub
The teaching material is excellent and the schedule is flexible. If you want to learn this beautiful but not easy language, Andrea is the right person for you!
I have been taking Czech classes for 3 years now. During all this time, Andrea made it fun and objective. Aside of the textbook, she provides other kinds of exercises where you learn” how to think in Czech” and conversation skills. Another advantage I’ve got having Czech lessons with her is the possibility of a flexible schedule. More than once I had to postpone a class and she always got me a new class schedule. Czech is a difficult language, but with the right teacher and effort I will get there.
I have been taking Czech lesson with Andrea for about 3,5 years. I started studying Czech because my wife was born in Prague and we raise our children in Czech and Dutch. I would like to communicate with my Czech relatives in Czech.
Now I can say I can communicate with my family in Prague. I would recommend Andrea to anyone who wants to learn Czech. She is very patient and doesn’t mind explaining some things very often. She is also very flexible with the times for lessons. With my busy working schedule that was very helpful.
If you want to learn Czech in an efficient and relaxing way, I would say – go for Andrea!
