Fri, 01 Nov 2024 - 10min - 87 - Ep.62: Why Do We Celebrate Halloween? 🎃
In the Czech Republic, October and November are the months of scary stories, candles and spirits. And of course, we have Halloween costume parties and it has been more and more popular as time goes on but we don’t celebrate it really, do we? So I was thinking that we could look at the history of Halloween. Where does it come from? And how exactly is it celebrated nowadays? Let’s get into it.

Sat, 12 Oct 2024 - 7min - 84 - Ep.59: Comparing American, British and Czech Education Systems
Today’s episode is about a topic I find interesting, especially since education shapes so much of our lives—educational systems! Specifically, we’ll look at and compare how education works in the United States, the United Kingdom, and the Czech Republic. Because sometimes it is very hard to orient ourselves in the way it works in different countries.

Fri, 04 Oct 2024 - 23min - 83 - Ep.58: Explaining PAST PERFECT Through Stories
Today’s episode is going to be a bit different from my usual ones. We’re going to dive into grammar, and not just any grammar, but one of those tricky tenses—past perfect, or in Czech, předminulý čas. I know, it sounds a little boring, but I’ll try to make it fun with some stories from my own life to help you understand this tense better. It will be a little similar to the episode about present perfect so I hope you will like it.

Fri, 27 Sep 2024 - 9min - 82 - Ep.57: 7 Steps To Feel More Confident While Speaking English
Today, we’re diving into a topic I know many of you are passionate about: becoming more confident when speaking English. Whether you’re planning to study abroad, work in a different country, or just want to improve for everyday conversations, it is also nice to feel confident about it. It is not a revolutionary topic or something that was never discussed but I still meet a lot of people who ask me about it and it is a daily struggle of my students so I thought that it could maybe help someone.

Fri, 23 Aug 2024 - 8min - 77 - Ep.52: 15 English Idioms In The Context Of My Stories
Today, I decided to talk about some English idioms again but maybe in a little bit of a different way. Sometimes, we learn fixed phrases isolated from the context and then we know about them but don’t really use them while talking because we don’t know how, am I right?
So I was thinking I would share with you some general updates from my life while using different idioms so that you might recall them later and know how to use them. What do you think?

Fri, 26 Jul 2024 - 10min - 74 - Ep.49: Explaining Present Perfect Through Stories
Today I have decided to make a little bit different episode than usual. I wanted to talk about grammar. So boring, am I right? I wanted to talk about a tense that is very problematic for Czech students and that is present perfect, in Czech “předpřítomný čas”.
But don’t worry, I will try to make it interesting, at least a little bit. And I also prepared a little present for you- a grammar mind map that I drew that will help you orient yourself in that tense. You will find it in the transcription of the podcast. So let’s get into it!

Fri, 12 Jul 2024 - 11min - 73 - Ep.48: Doing Things You Are Not Ready For
Today I am bringing you a small episode about a topic that is very close to my heart but also a topic that I come across with my students quite frequently. That topic is “doing things when you are ready for them”. What do I mean? It is the tendency to postpone things into the future because right now we feel like we don’t have the skills or competency to complete them. We will do it when we are ready. But what if that time never comes? I was thinking about it and I will show you some examples from my own life. Are you ready? Let’s go…

As I like to talk about American history and culture, I came up with the idea to introduce you a little bit to an American public holiday called The 4th of July, also known as Independence Day. It is coming next week so when is a better time for this than today?
So, Independence Day. What is it? We could say that it is the birthday of the United States. It is a big American holiday which is celebrated with fireworks, parades, and barbecues. But do you know why? If not, I’ve got you covered…

So let’s practice, I can be your bestie for a few minutes but I will not only talk but also give you a lot of collocations and idioms that you could hear or use while having a friendly conversation.

In this episode, we will talk together about American history. Maybe some of you know that I studied English and English literature at the university but with that, a huge part of my studies was the culture of American and British society. And that is why I really like to talk about it and I am very interested in it. That is why this is one of the first episodes about this topic but certainly not the last because you can’t even imagine how interesting British and American history is. Sometimes it is really like a comedy. And sometimes also tragedy.
So today, I prepared for you a little fun quiz where you can listen, test yourself, and maybe learn something new. Are you ready? Here we go!

Words I am talking about: BOUGH (větev), THROUGH (skrz), TOUGH (ačkoliv), ROUGH (hrubý), COUGH (kašel)
Sometimes it can be pretty stressful to try to guess how to pronounce some words when you have never heard them, I understand :D
So today, I will tell you why English spelling is so different from pronunciation (= from how we actually say the words).
Hopefully, you will learn something new :)

About today's episode:
This episode introduces you to the remaining 6 (out of 11) fun facts about Harry Potter! If you like these movies or books, this one will be fun for you :)
Usually, I am telling a story from my life but this episode will be special. Because today I will be talking about Harry Potter.
There are several reasons why I wanted to speak about Harry Potter. First of all, it was my favorite book and film series when I was younger and I still like it very much. And I grew up with that. Second of all, it has become an important part of English literature and it is considered one of the greatest stories from modern anglophone literature and I suppose that there are not many people who haven't about this series and I bet that the majority of you have seen the movies or read the books. And because I studied literature and I love learning language through reading, I thought it will be fun to talk about some interesting facts about Harry Potter.
Let me know what you think!
