We also offer our program for those who are not quite sure that a week of intensive English language communication is appropriate for them. In this program, lessons are taught in a 2-1 system; one native speaker works with a pair of students. This approach is ideal for those who know the basics of English grammar, but have not had an opportunity to practice English in real-life situations. At this stage of English language proficiency, support from a fellow student partner can be very helpful.

We established our non-profit company with the aim of raising the English language literacy of young Czech students by enabling them to interact with native English speakers in a multi-cultural exchange. The Czech Republic is particularly well-suited for our program: it is located in the heart of Europe and, as a transit country with thousands of years of tradition and history, it is a center of learning and culture that attracts people from all over the world. By arranging for English-speaking volunteers to meet, listen to and speak with Czech children, we intend, not only to foster English language literacy, but also to broaden the children's horizons, enrich their lives and encourage them to feel more at home in the world.
During group activities, we will form cooperative teams which will prepare small projects to present to the group as a whole.
After dinner, we will meet again in the common room or restaurant, where we will play games and enjoy quizzes. Students and native speakers will be together in a casual environment to interact and have fun with English.
We will take you comfortably by bus from Prague to our venue and then back at the end of the program.
Where will we meet and where do we go?
We will meet and go together by bus to our venue. The intensive language course will take place in the congress halls of the venue.
The accommodation includes six days and five nights in a beautiful hotel or guesthouse. We offer double rooms with full board. Here are our venues:
