Thank you to Dominika. Through her happy, calm and supportive teaching I am slowly feeling like I am starting to understand Czech! She has such good knowledge of both languages which allows her to steadily steer you in the right direction.

I find the thought process of Czech language is very interesting. Dominika explains details, and each lesson makes me more interested.

Hello, my name is Dominika and I live in Karlovy Vary in the Czech Republic.
For more than three years I lived in the UK and Australia. There I picked up some “street” and “school” English. There I passed my Cambridge exams and later The state exam in the Czech Rep.

Qualifications & Experience
In 1996 I passed my Cambridge exams ( First Certificate in English, Certificate in Advanced English and Certificate of Proficiency in English), and in 2001 I past The state exam of English (in the Czech Rep.)
Since 2009 I´ ve been running my private language school in Ostrov: www.anflictina-ostrov.cz, facebook: Angličtina Ostrov.
In 2011 I received Bachelor (in Humanities), University of West Bohemia.
In 2014 I got the CELTA certificate - grade B, course IH BET (Business English Teaching), and One 2 One teaching. And still I keep on taking any useful courses that can enhance my work and support my (already existing) passion to teach :-).
In 2018 I finished my study of Anglophone studies and got Masters diploma.
In 2020 I passed my final exam of Teaching.
Since then I' ve been professionally teaching English at a middle school (High school).
Teaching Approach
I guess I can give interesting lessons, gently motivate students to work hard and provide lessons “tailored to individual needs of each student”.
Every student can be successful.
I´ve been teaching English to Czechs, so why don´t we try it the other way around?…….

Teaching Approach
Více jak dvacet let se pohybuji mezi studenty anglického jazyka. Vím, jaké jsou jejich slabiny či silné stránky. Umím studenta zabavit, přimět ke studiu a zajistit kvalitní výuku. Jsem schopna učit mládež i dospělé. Každý student může být úspěšný.
