I'm an energetic and active person who enjoys speaking about a wide range of topics. I like to start lessons with conversation in Czech. Depending on your level, this may be supplemented with visual materials to help orient you in the conversation. I encourage my students to embrace making mistakes, as these are what we can build off of. Sometimes I will correct you in the moment, other times I will jot things down to look at later.
