Very varied group of several nationalities (Japanese, Nepali, English, South African, Vietnamese, Polish, Italian, Spanish….) and also different  language levels within A1-A2 came to learn at  UJOP.  Even after quite some experience it  is sometimes challenging to manage the tutoring of such a diversified group. Every student is specific, everyone knows something but these people[…]

This intimate group of people taught me several skills:to be patient, not to expect always too much but still to be focused on the goal, to adjust the lesson to very different types of students so that everyone is improving and the tempo is still somehow going on.

After many courses of mixed levels this group “felt like a breath of fresh air”as the group is very homogenous (total beginners from Turkey, Russia, Germany, Spain, Romania, Bulgaria and the US). The motivation of individual students are either to work here or the family life. My goal is to go step by step to A1[…]

This group of young people who are either planning to study at Czech universities or to work here using Czech language is very special to me.We work  specifically on grammar which should jump from A1 to B1. It teaches me how to prepare big amount of good material and how to manage big group of[…]
