Listen Later

Learning Czech as a native English speaker can feel… overwhelming.
Confusing. Like you’re lost in a sea of cases, conjugations, and grammar rules that don’t make sense.

Let’s change that.

In this video, you’ll meet Ken, an American who once struggled just like you—but now helps others learn Czech with practical, real-life strategies.
Joining him is Eliška, founder of slowczech, alongside one of our amazing tutors.

Whether you’re just starting or feeling stuck, this episode is full of honest advice, personal stories, and tips that actually work—especially if Czech is your first foreign language.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
  • How to learn Czech online in a way that feels natural and fun

  • Why you don’t need perfect grammar to speak with confidence

  • The mindset shifts that kept Ken motivated

  • How to use your hobbies to grow your Czech vocabulary

  • What makes slowczech different from traditional lessons
