It gives me great pleasure to recommend my former boss, Pavlína Hotařová. She hired me to be one of the freelance teachers at Slůně jazyková škola, a language school in Brno where I was hired for my first international job teaching English after working as a public school teacher in the US. There was a lot to learn in my new career and Pavlína did everything she could to help me succeed. It went far beyond just making sure I knew the logistics of each position—who our clients were, how to meet their needs, how to report attendance, and how to use their software. She did that very well, too, but she also helped me figure out public transport in Brno, how to do European style banking, cultural differences in working with clients in Europe, punctuality norms, and even which materials were the best. She also did an excellent job assessing the quality of teachers during our interview, grammar test, demo lesson, and then continued her assessment with observations and continuing education. Pavlína was wonderful to work for. I could ask her anything and she was not judgmental, forgiving of my errors while still expecting me to get it right next time, friendly and just fun to be with. She became a true mentor for me and a key to the success. I give her my highest recommendation.
