Czech Lessons

My name is Silvie Opatrná and I am a native Czech speaker. I was born in Prague and grew up in the Czech Republic.

I have been teaching Czech to private students since 1999 on an individual basis and in small groups. I have been designing lesson plans based on individual student needs and interests and writing handouts to help students with specific grammar points and to give them additional practice. Teaching is my passion and I love to share my knowledge of my first language with people.

I offer Czech lessons:
  • online via Zoom and Skype
  • over the phone

My services include:
  • translations from Czech to English and English to Czech
  • assisstance with correspondence for those who have Czech relatives and friends
  • teaching strategies of Czech pronounciation for opera singers

"Silvie's superpower is that she intuitively understands how language is learned. She combines natural conversation with relevant points of grammar in a fun and student-focused approach to instruction. Her knowledge, energy, patience and professionalism are impressive. Silvie is a talented teacher and I always look forward to my lessons!"
