About teaching

What I like about teaching

 Meeting lots of new people, helping them to achieve their goals, and seeing them grow.  

My advice to students of English? 

Consistency is key. Even just spending 5-10 minutes a day is much better than spending hours and hours one day a week. 

About me

Three things I like 

cooking, travelling, languages 

My favourite English word 

Defenestration. Even though it's not commonly used, I like the fact that there's  a word for something so specific. 

My favourite Czech word 

I like the words with no vowels like vlk, krk, and prst but my favourite has to be trh. Trh just has a very nice ring to it. 

Something special about me 

I once spent 2 days working as a volunteer Japanese-English interpreter for an ambassador. 

First impression about P.A.R.K.

It has a very good energy to it and seems to have the right mix of fun and motivation.
