Watch a video lesson about this topic here. My students give me endless inspiration for learning videos. In one of my lessons the other day, my student and I somehow got to the verb mást (to confuse). She said, “I have never heard of such a verb.” Truth be told, it is more common to come across the...
English translation below Dnes ráno jsem k snídani uvařila vajíčka a když jsem je loupala, vybavil se mi jeden příběh, který se stal zhruba před půl rokem. Byla jsem na návštěvě u sestry a pomáhala jí rozptýlit mého synovce Edu. V tu dobu mu bylo necelých 3 a půl roku. Ráno jsem si s ním hrála v posteli, kopali jsme metro pro krtky (inspirace byla...
The other day one of my closest friends told me: „I was testing my son on German vocabulary. I did it the way you taught me and I realized how effective that is!“ It’s important to mention that my friend was originally “just” a student of mine. I started teaching her Spanish on Skype in 2017 and over the...
Why do we say počkej (wait), but nečekej for don’t wait? Making imperatives in Czech can be a bit confusing, but don’t worry (neboj se/ nebojte se), there are rules which we can follow.

It was in the summer of 2021. My husband wanted to surprise me and took me into a really nice restaurant in Prague. It was on a rooftop! The views of the old part of town were amazing. The sun was about to set and the outdoor temperature was just perfect. The menu looked great too. There...
Imagine you are learning a completely new language (Hm, let’s say… Czech). What are some of the first words and phrases you would like to know? Hello. – Dobrý den. Goodbye. – Na shledanou. Thank you. – Děkuju. My name is… – Jmenuju se… I am American/German/Indian… Well, that also depends on why you are learning the language...
It was the year of 2018. I had been teaching English and Spanish for almost a decade (part time and full time) and I felt like it had to end. I was tired of teaching and I was wishing to find my dream job. I wasn’t sure what that might be but I was quite certain teaching was not it. I...
