Your Czech Summer

Tohle léto: less overthinking, more mluvení 😄

Your Czech doesn't like "study hard". Your Czech loves people, conversations, reactions, simple real-life moments.

Let Czech be part of your summer →
☀️
... a summer where you panic less, you react faster, laugh more and slowly feel more like YOU in Czech.
choose "your czech summer" group

Which Czech summer is yours?

tři small groups = tři different ways to keep Czech active in your life

1
Your Czech Summer

Start speaking

“I almost never speak.”
2 July – 31 August
Monday + Thursday
18:00 – 19:00 českého
💻 online via Zoom
Gabriela s Gabčou
Monča s Mončou

This group is for me if:

  • I always say “I don’t speak Czech” 😅😭 even if I know something
  • I understand a bit but can say only simple frazes I learned in my texbook
  • when Czech people speak faster… I panic completely
  • I switch to English almost immediately
  • I want Czech to feel more natural and less scary

After these 9 weeks, you will:

  • panic a little less when Czech suddenly appears 😄
  • start reacting instead of freezing completely
  • use more Czech during coffees, walks and little summer moments ☀️
  • stop switching to English THAT quickly
  • slowly start feeling like “okay… maybe I actually DO speak a little Czech”
2
Your Czech Summer

Speak naturally

“I want to sound more like myself”
3 July – 28 August
Tuesday + Friday
10:00 – 11:00 českého času
💻 online via Zoom
Petra s Petrou
Vendy s Vendy

This group is for me if:

  • I can already speak Czech in daily life… but I still feel limited
  • I can have a conversation, but I don’t always feel like ME in Czech
  • I want to express my humour and opinions more like a normal human
  • group conversations still feel a bit like watching tenis 😅
  • I want more flow, more reactions and less “ehm... jak se řekne...?”

After these 9 weeks, you will:

  • react with less overthinking, just be more in flow
  • join conversations more easily without escaping too much inside your head
  • use more Czech for stories, opinions, jokes and little summer chats ☀️
  • feel less limited when you want to say something
  • slowly start feeling more like YOU in Czech

“My Czech is just sleeping a little.”
3 August – 21 August
Mo+Tu+We+Th
9:00 – 10:00 českého času
💻 online via Zoom
Daniela s Dančou
s Luckou

This group is for me if:

  • I learned Czech before... but most of it is sleeping 😅
  • I still introduce myself like a beginner even after months or years
  • I understand more than I can actually say
  • I know some Czech words and grammar... but they don't come out when I need them
  • simple conversations still feel stressful and slow
  • I want to REbuild confidence and finally start USING Czech again

After these 3 weeks, you will:

  • wake Czech up again ☀️
  • feel less rusty and more like "I can say stuff!"
  • react faster in everyday situations
  • hear and use Czech almost every day
  • stop feeling like you're starting from zero every time
  • leave with your Czech feeling active plus easier to access

What is different from the Immersion Program?

"Your Czech Summer" groups are lighter, shorter, prostě perfektní na léto ☀️ They help you keep Czech alive or finally stop hiding from conversations.

The Immersion Program goes mnohem víc deeper. It is a longer 4-month experience focused on fear, outsider feeling, belonging and real transformation in Czech life.

You definitely can start with Summer Groups… and then continue into Immersion later.

The next Immersion Program opens again in October 2026.

How we put together the groups?

  • people with similar Czech understanding
  • similar speaking comfort and energy
  • supportive humans who actually want to talk together
  • a group where nobody feels “too lost” or “too advanced”
No "I should
be further by now".

But Czech feeling
more alive together.

Don’t spend ☀️ another léto only understanding Czech.

Start actually USING it with people.

Fill in the short pre-reservation form.
Then we’ll have a short friendly call and help you find the group where you’ll feel good, comfortable and on the same wavelength with others.

Terms & Conditions ☀️

Group placement

Why?

Because slowczech groups are not only about levels. We do our best to create groups with:

  • similar Czech understanding
  • similar speaking comfort
  • supportive atmosphere
  • humans on a similar wavelength 😊

Your place

Your place is officially reserved after payment.

Payment plans

For Summer Groups 1 & 2, you can pay either in full or in 2 monthly payments.

If you choose monthly payments, you commit to the full course fee. Choosing not to attend lessons or participate in the group does not cancel future payments.

The Intensive Czech Reset is paid as one full payment before the course starts.

Missed lessons

Lessons take place on fixed dates and times and focus mainly on speaking and interaction.

If you miss a lesson:

  • lessons cannot be refunded
  • lessons cannot be transferred
  • lessons cannot be rescheduled
  • recordings are not available

Group size & tutor changes

If minimum group capacity is not reached, we may offer an alternative group, postpone the course, or provide a refund.

If a tutor becomes unavailable, we may arrange a substitute tutor, replacement lesson, or another suitable solution.

Atmosphere

Your Czech Summer is built on:

  • safety
  • encouragement
  • respect
  • speaking without perfection pressure 😊

We reserve the right to end participation if someone repeatedly disrupts lessons, disrespects others, or creates an uncomfortable atmosphere.

If this happens, access to the group ends and all payments remain due and non-refundable.

Refunds

Payments are non-refundable once the course has started.

Important to know

This is not a grammar course focused on perfection.

The goal is:

  • more speaking
  • more reactions
  • more confidence
  • more real-life Czech
  • more feeling like yourself in Czech

We create the space and guidance. You bring yourself and your Czech. ❤️

I’m based in Brno — a city I love. I’m passionate about traveling, dancing, and personal growth, and I’m always looking to improve. I’m learning languages myself, so I understand the challenges.

Lucie

languages, culture, safe space

I’m a Czech and German tutor. I enjoy meeting people from different cultures and helping them feel comfortable in the country they have chosen to live in. I believe that language connects us, opens doors to people, culture, and the feeling of “I belong here.”

When I’m not teaching, I like to ride my bike, dance, walk in nature, garden, or relax with a book and a good glass of wine.

Gabriela

smile, empathy, love for Czech

I have been teaching the Czech language my whole life, both as a native language and as a foreign language. I love to laugh and talk a lot. I can’t imagine my life without my big family and books. My life motto is: ‘Every cloud has a silver lining.’ And believe me—it really does! Let’s learn Czech together and discover the beauty of the Czech Republic!

I am constantly looking for playful and unconventional ways of teaching. I understand the Russian soul and speak Russian myself at a native level. I can help Russian speakers avoid the pitfalls that come with the similarities between 2 languages. I am not afraid to sleep alone in the forest.

I spent some time abroad and I also study languages, so I can understand your needs. I am fascinated by interpersonal relationships, human mind and wonders of nature.

Walks, my family, languages

I’m Ema (or Míša), and I fell in love with teaching Czech eight years ago. Learning a language is a journey and I am here to be your guide and help you to enjoy it. Together, we always set a destination (in a week/month/year) and create a detailed itinerary, so we don´t get lost on the way. I love travelling, hiking, yoga, music, and dancing. I have a little baby now. That’s why I also offer WhatsApp and Hybrid lessons.

I’m Barbora, or Bára. Life is amazing with wonderful people, my husband and my child by my side. I’m lucky to have my dream job, helping people understand each other. I enjoy both learning and teaching. I love working on conversation skills and correct pronunciation. Share your stories with me!

Eliska slowczech CEO and founder

Eliška

business, mother, polyglote

I am slowczech founder and from my experience I know two things: beginners can understand words with time. And enjoyable input is vital for natural language acquisition. Many give up Czech due to old methods, irrelevant vocabulary or overwhelming grammar. Let’s change that and make learning Czech exciting and effective.
