Teaching Philosophy

My teaching philosophy is to help people learn how to communicate outside of their national boundaries, broaden their point of view on new topics, and impact their personal development.

Much of what I learned about the language comes from a long-term stay in Canada (where I studied and worked). I use the experience from abroad and incorporate it into the classes I teach. In particular, I focus on using coaching and creativity in my work

My main vision is to design and teach courses that will improve the quality of my students’ daily lives.

Teaching style:


I am using the communicative approach in my classes (all four language skills - speaking, listening, writing, reading - are included in each lesson plan.

Students are carefully guided and prompted to learn, practise, and acquire the language. To enhance students´ progress, I use custom-made review exercises with detailed feedback and suggestions for improvement.

Classes are not designed to be solely conversation-based; they are systematic – all aspects of the language are studied and practised (including grammar and vocabulary building).

I actively use technology tools such as Zoom, Skype, and Google Classroom to make the classes time and place flexible.

My priority is to create...

  • a safe and pleasant learning atmosphere
  • opportunities to build self-confidence in the foreign language
My overall intention is to keep the learning outcomes twofold – foreign language proficiency and personal development.

Professional reference

The English lessons I took with Tereza Warmanova in 2020-2021 were definitely those to look forward to. I intended to pay attention & practise especially difficult grammar, and this goal was fulfilled to my satisfaction. But the content of the lessons offered much more. The lessons consisted of all various parts of the language development (grammar, listening, exercises, conversations, etc.) - they were supplied with a reasonable amount of homework. Conversation topics focused on various contemporary subjects, so there were no boring discussions between us. I appreciated a lot that Tereza listened to my language needs and was able to prepare lessons according to them. I recommend Tereza´s lessons to every passionate student of the English language.

„Když jsem se rozhodla začít s angličtinou, kterou jsem ve škole nikdy neměla, vystřídala jsem několik kurzů a několik lektorů, než jsem se seznámila s Terezou Warmanovou. Teprve s ní jsem zažila pocit, že jsem konečně setřásla nálepku věčného začátečníka, že mě učení baví, že jsem se trochu víc rozmluvila a že se angličtinu nebojím použít. Tereza je příjemná, trpělivá lektorka, schopná přizpůsobit lekci žákovi, jeho schopnostem, ale i zájmům a momentální náladě. Nikdy nedá najevo netrpělivost nebo rozmrzelost z opakujících se chyb. Na její hodiny se těším a odcházím pozitivně naladěná, s chutí číst si knížky v angličtině a sledovat filmy bez dabingu.”

MUDr. Alena Mazáková

„Na přístupu Terezy k výuce angličtiny si vážím hlavně toho, že poté co poznala, co na mě platí, tak se tomu přizpůsobila. Hodiny byly rozmanité a využité do maxima. Když jsme se nemohly sejít osobně, spojily jsme se přes skype - byla jsem překvapená, jaké finty na výuku na dálku má. Přestože jsem z časových důvodů (já vím, výmluva..) lekce přerušila, ráda si i nyní na facebooku čtu její sdílené příspěvky.”
