How to Prepare for a Czech Language Exam When You Have Little Time?
At the moment, I’m helping several people prepare for the certified Czech language exams at A2 and B1 levels. In both cases, students usually don’t have any problems with the READING📖 and LISTENING🎧 sections, but they are worried😟 about the SPEAKING🗣️ and WRITING✍️ sections, so these are the two parts we focus on together.
What Does Czech Exam Preparation with Me Look Like?
Besides teaching you strategies and practicing responses and universal phrases that you can use during the exam, we also talk a lot about fear😱 and working with emotions. Fear can sometimes be so powerful that it completely paralyzes us, but when we take a closer look at it, we often discover that what we fear is usually what we don’t know.
When taking an exam, we don’t know what will happen, what questions we’ll get, or how we’ll feel, and that’s why we sometimes feel afraid. Sometimes it’s a small fear, sometimes a big one, but it is always possible to reduce it ↘️ and learn how to work with it so that we know what to do when we feel it.
This is also one of the things I’m happy to help you with using language coaching methods that I apply in my lessons 🤝.
Another way I can help you actively prepare for the exam when you don’t have much time left ⏰ and it isn’t possible for you to have online lessons several times a week is through a flexible Czech program adapted specifically for exam preparation.
How Does It Work?
👉🏽 Every day, you receive a message 📩 on WhatsApp from me containing a specific SPEAKING task 🗣️ similar to what you may encounter in the exam (for example, pictures 🖼️ that you need to describe together with questions related to the topic). Your task is to send me an AUDIO 🎤 message in which you answer as if you were taking the exam.
I then give you feedback, and this way we practice SPEAKING FOR THE CZECH EXAM every single day. You only need a few minutes a day, but after two weeks of this type of training, you will have practiced 10 specific situations that may appear in the exam.
👉🏽 In a Google document, I give you WRITING ✍️ tasks FOR THE CZECH EXAM, and then I correct your writing and provide feedback and tips 💡 that can help you during the exam.
👉🏽 Once every 4 weeks (or more often if you need it), we have an online lesson where we review the strategies you have already learned for the exam and talk about your fears, helping you minimize them.
What Are the Benefits?
👉🏽 You can prepare for the exam more effectively and faster ⚡ than with just one online lesson per week because you get used to specific exam tasks every day.
👉🏽 You also have my daily WhatsApp support, so every day you know that I’m going through this with you and that you’re not alone in this 🤝💪.
❗ However, this is only suitable if your Czech is already (more or less) at the exam level and you don’t have difficulties with the READING 📖 and LISTENING 🎧 sections.
