Hello!
I'm Veronika and I'm Czech 🇨🇿, with a British, native-like accent, and C2 level of English.
Since my motto is 'Do what you love, love what you do' 🩵, I've managed to combine my two great passions; music and English, and made a career out of it!
I play the piano, the acoustic guitar, and 'm learning to sing. I'm curious about all the English accents of the world so I spend even my free time by extra listening!
As our paths are not always direct, I used to be an artisan 'bakeress' 👩🏻🍳 (that's my way of promoting more feminine nouns :) ), which is now more of a plan for retirement. 🤭
When I'm not working, you'll find me out running, or playing different instruments. 🎹 🎸
I'm a TEFL certified teacher. I've got over a decade of experience with 1-on-1 teaching of general English, including 3 years of experience teaching the General British accent to students of all levels, and a year of experience teaching the General American accent. With a background in music, I can hear the smallest of nuances when a student is struggling to produce a particular sound, an intonation pattern, etc.
I’ve always been fascinated by and passionate about the world where music and language combine, ambitious to achieve a native-like level as a non-native speaker, single-minded, and driven. So I spent extra hours drilling on my own or working on my accents (currently GB and GA) with accent reduction coaches.

I had a wonderful conversation about phonetics. It open up a lot of ideas and interesting questions about how sound work, how speech work. I am curious about what more I can learn. Veronika is very knowledgable, and she have practical experience on how to have control over your articulations. I highly recommend her class for anyone who is interested.
