My name is Katarina, I grew up in Czechoslovakia, got a degree in Marketing/Media and in 2001 moved to the UK.
I lived in London for 12 years, studied English, also fashion and design, experienced many things and worked a lot!
When I left I decided to change my lifestyle and I travelled the world for 8 years, teaching yoga and English.
Now living in Spain, gardening, leading ecstatic dance and teaching languages online.
Life is beautiful and fun🫶🏼

Me as a Teacher
I used to teach English mainly to children, now thanks to italki I can work with teenagers and adults which makes it more interesting and rewarding for me.
Been teaching the last 4 years on Italki now, and loving it!
Once upon a time I was also learning English so I understand the challenges of the learning process my students are going through.
I am now trying to learn Spanish (a complete beginner again haha) and so I am going through the language learning process, just like my students, sharing all the joys and the frustrations which come from language studies.
Let's learn together and have fun 😃🧠

My lessons & teaching style
I focus on conversation. From my personal experiences as a language student I know that conversation is what accelerates the learning to another level. Confidence is being built and at the same time the pronunciation and grammar are advancing naturally. I do enjoy being creative and spontaneous so there is always space for new teaching techniques and ideas from both sides.
Looking forward to meeting you!

I have been learning Czech from Katarina for over a year now with weekly learning sessions. She is a wonderful teacher: patient, kind, knowledgeable and fun. She is very professional, works hard and is very dedicated. My Czech language skills have accelerated tremendously: before I was hardly speaking. Now, it’s easy peasy and feels so comfortable. I highly recommend her for learning the Czech language!
- Je to fantastická učitelka češtiny! Bylo to nejlepší rozhodnutí, které jsem na své cestě za studiem češtiny udělal.

Very interesting class focused on grammar. Katarina's methodology is based on listening , understanding and answering. Therefore, Katarina class is very interactive class. You must listen, understand and answer all the period, no time to sleeping . An excellent as well as real class. Thanks Katarina.

She's really nice tutor! She listened to what I wanted to learn and explored the best way for me to learn. She asked me a lot of questions, which was great because it gave me more opportunities to speak for myself.

I always love my sessions! When I’ve had a bit of a lapse in my studies, Katarina is kind and patient when I’m rusty!
