Private Language Teacher

Sep 2016 - Present
After moving abroad for my ongoing studies, teaching some of my students in virtual environment seemed to be very natural. Very soon I have developed my own client base and started allocating more and more time towards it. This not only gave me great opportunity to further develop my foreign languages, but also my teaching and communication skills. Very soon, I also managed to become a Czech language teacher for one of local students. Overall, I have about 10 permanent clients, resulting in more than 400 hours of further experience in teaching General and Business English in virtual environment over the last year. Show less

Project Coordinator
-
Oct 2017 - Dec 2020
Since 2017 I am part of a non-profit volunteering project which aims helping young people to get relevant working/study experience abroad. In cooperation with Czech and Austrian embassies, we currently concentrate on providing relevant information to young people interested in studying/working in Austria. Since the project is in early stages I have been responsible for many areas in relatively short period of time, providing a lot of experience. This includes among others coordination of other team members, allocation of tasks, social media presentation, events management, public relations, preparation of powerpoint presentations and questionnaires, and many others. Since I joined the team, we have managed to acquire new sponsors, resulting in more than 200% of original budget. We almost tripled our team and managed to keep it very proactive, doubled our Facebook and Instagram audience, and spread our presence through many other marketing channels. Show less

Summer Camp Coordinator
-
Jul 2014 - Aug 2014
"Ranč Solný Potok" is a picturesque children summer camp. This camp not only lets the children enjoy their summer in virgin nature of Jeseníky Mountains, but also gives them a great opportunity to experience contact with many animals, including horses. As part of the camp, the children are also taught to take care of these animals, ride horses and much more. After spending many years as one of the children at this camp, I have decided to participate as one of the staff in 2012 and returned for many years. This gave me a great opportunity to further develop my managerial and organisational skills, while teaching and enjoying the youngest ones. I have been participating on everything from events management to assisting with general administration. Overall, I have been supervising over 150 children on more than 10 courses, lasting two weeks each. Show less
