About me

I offer quality individual tuition to children, students, adults and businesses. Group lessons are also possible (quantity discount). Conversation, grammar, listening texts, reading, possibility of thematic focus (e.g. travel, finance, gastronomy), game-based learning, preparation for exams. I can provide my own study materials. I mostly teach online, but students can also commute to me or I to them.
I have been teaching English and German privately for several years, and I also have experience teaching first grade in elementary school.
I have a degree in Anthropology and Tourism. I have lived abroad for several years - in Canada, New Zealand, the UK, Austria and Spain. I have a state exam in English and a certificate in German (for the latter I am at B2 level).
If you can play a musical instrument and are interested in swapping lessons (I provide the English and you provide the music lesson), I'd love to hear from you!

What we learned when we met Simona
from verification interview with Hlídačky.cz

Simona pochází z vesnice kousek od Rakovníka. Gymnázium vystudovala v Nymburku a potom nastoupila na přírodovědeckou fakultu Univerzity Karlovy. Nedávno dokončila obor Antropologie a Genetika člověka a čeká ji stáž ve Španělsku.

Dlouhodobě hlídá zvířata v zahraničních rodinách. Má tedy zkušenosti se psy (od nejmenších plemen až po ty největší), kočkami, morčaty, králíky i koňmi. Starala se o nemocná zvířata, kterým musela podávat léky i o zvířata s alergiemi. Sama měla morčata, křečky a psy - bígla a kokršpaněla. Momentálně má dvě kočky.

Zkušenosti s dětmi má díky pomoci kamarádkám. Často jim pohlídala, když potřebovaly něco zařídit, a tak má nejvíce praxe s dětmi od narození až do 5 let.

Domluví se anglicky a německy, učí se řecky. Zajímá se o jídlo v souvislosti se zdravím, ráda pracuje na zahradě a cestuje.


How Simona handles everyday situations

You are about to look after 5 years old Anna from Prague. She has been going to kindergarten for a year and her mum and dad need to have a rest and go for the trip together on Saturday. You know Anna has been looked after only by her mum's sister, she would not last long for the book and enjoys any movement the most. The parents won't have any special requirements for the daily schedule leaving it completely up to you. What is your common Saturday going to look like?

Super, že harmonogram je na mně. Zeptám se Aničky, jestli má nějaké přání, kam by chtěla jít. Můžeme se jit projít do parku, na dětské hřiště (třeba na nějaké nové, kam normálně nechodí, abychom se prošly) nebo se zajedeme podívat na zvířátka (minizoo Chuchle, Smíchov, Hostivař, Milíčovský dvůr apod). Můžeme si také zahrát nějaké pohybové hry (např. s míčem). K jídlu si můžeme udělat piknik někde v parku nebo si společně něco dobrého a zdravého uvařit. Také si můžeme povídat anglická slovíčka u zvířátek nebo věci které uvidíme kolem sebe.

You are at the sandpit with Anna enjoying not only playing at climbing frames but also making sand cakes. Anna is sitting calmly trying to prepare a confectionery pleasure. She is holding a sifter in her hand "sugaring" the sand cake. Suddenly, a little girl approximately at the same age comes to her, takes the sifter and is going to play with it herself. Anna is really unhappy and looks as she is going to cry. How are you going to solve the situation?

Uklidním Aničku, že se nic neděje a ze bábovka muže být klidně i bez cukru. Anebo pocukrujeme bábovku společně i s další holčičkou dohromady. Tedy poprosíme ji o to, jestli by nám s pocukrovanim bábovky nepomohla. Pokud by Anička hodně plakala, mohu se zeptat rodiče dané holčičky, jestli by nemohl své dceři situaci vysvětlit a sítko nám vrátit (pokud je sítko naše). Pokud není daný rodič k dispozici, situaci vyřešíme společně my tři. Popripade můžeme začít dělat úplně jinou věc, při které by Anička na sítko zapomněla.

You have agreed with the parents they would come back home in the evening to make their daughter fall asleep. Half an hour before they should arrive, the desperate mother is calling you she has been stuck in traffic on the highway and they will certainly not be able to arrive on time. There is going to be a serious delay and there is nobody to substitute for them. Anna is quite tired of the all-day rollicking and she is asking for her parents. How are you going to cope with the situation?

Vysvětlím ji, ze rodiče jsou na cestě zpátky domu, ale že mají zpoždění. Otevřeme knížku s pohádkami, nějakou vybereme a přečteme. Pokud by knížku neměla, mohu nejakou pohadku např najít na internetu a přečíst jí ji. Třeba Anička během čekání na rodiče při pohádce usne. Počkám do příjezdu rodičů a až teprve poté odcházím. Pokud by stále nemohla usnout, mohu zkusit zazpívat ukolebavku popripade můžeme rodičům společně zavolat aby ji uklidnili i oni a řekli ji, že až se ráno probudí, budou už doma.
