June 2009

Two and half months with this group of 8 people was for me an interesting and challenging  experience. I think this group was a nice mix.
We really enjoyed working together, eventhough not everyone was on the same level of  Czech.
The main goal of all students was to talk a lot in Czech. Thanks to discussing some interesting topics students naturally extended their  vocabulary but in the meantime they realized that we had to “refresh” the grammar a bit.
Based on the wish of students we also covered some advanced grammar (conditionals, conjunctions, aspect, prepositions).
Hopefully we will have the chance to continue together in the next evening course in Albertov again.

Note: It’s funny to realize that the biggest motivation for taking language studies is having a “czech girlfriend”…

Kristyna.

Albertov has been the place where Asia met America. Five nationalities in this class (a mixed group of young Chinese,  Vietnamese, Korean, Turkish and Brazilian ) meet in Prague to learn the basics of Czech up to A1 level. It turned out to be tough work for me and also for my students. Some even had difficulty to read and write in Latin alphabet. But now they are all able to  read, write and pronounce basic words on A1 level.  They now know basic phrases and are able to  talk in “broken Czech” about themselves and common topics. They have managed to use past and future tense.

It was hard work, both teacher and students did their best. I’ve been patient and the students were strong. We had quite some fun together and studied in a playful (but strict) atmosphere. It has been a great learning experience for myself and I will definitely remember this group.
