MA Tereza Culkova

English Teacher

Hello! Welcome!

I cannot believe it will be almost 20 years of me being immersed in English. Everything started with an extracurricular English course in a primary school. It was the first time ever I was being surrounded by a foreign language and I fell in love with it.

Since then I have been on a very long journey of studying, understanding and applying the language.

During years of hard work I realized there is nothing else I would rather do in my life than helping others, you, with whom I can share not only my knowledge but also joy, hardship and strategies facilitating learning/acquiring and using the language.

From one lesson to a hobby,

passion and a lifetime adventure...

Do you want to change your life or enhance it a bit? Well, I am here to help you.

English has changed my life and I cannot imagine my life without it. I have met people from around the world and seen many places thanks to English that has been a tool for me being adventurous. I want to share this joy with you and be your companion on this journey. So, let's start now. There is just one click between you and your dreams.
