About teaching

What I like about teaching

I really enjoy helping people improve their language skills, whatever their motivation. I also love meeting people of all ages from many different backgrounds.

My advice to students of English?

Try to read, watch and listen to real English. TV shows, newspapers, music & films are great resources!

About me

Three things I like

Music, reading & exploring the beautiful Czech countryside.

My favourite English word

Effervescent. It means bubbly! 

My favourite Czech word

Pivo, because the Czechs do it better than anybody else. It's also effervescent.

Something special about me

I'm crazy about audio and love to make music with other people. I've worked on more songs than I can count, I stopped keeping track at 1,000!

My favorite thing about working in PARK 

The staff and students are very friendly, it's always a nice place to walk into.
