How to learn Czech (or any language) in Prague: 7 practical tips

Learning a language works best through real dialogue, not endless grammar tables. Czech and Italian courses at Dante Praga, an initiative of the non-profit Società Dante Alighieri, focus on conversation and everyday communication for students looking to build real-world language skills. Native-speaking teachers lead group lessons, private tutoring, or online study. While courses are geared toward Italian learners of Czech, all language learners are welcome, no matter your goals or level.

Children absorb languages best in an environment where communication happens naturally through play, projects, and interaction. It's this model that helps students at Wonderland Academy pick up Czech naturally. Classes are interactive, age-appropriate, and built into a bilingual school environment for children aged 2 to 15. The school supports expat families, helping children settle in while picking up Czech without pressure.

If you want simple, focused sessions that fit easily into your week, Solaris Language School offers flexible online courses. Designed for individuals, groups, companies, and those prepping for Czech language exams, lessons are led by founder Karolina Wencelová, who has been teaching Czech for over 20 years. The emphasis is on clear explanations and steady progress.

The best way for children to stay confident in English while thriving in Czech school settings is through creative, playful activities. This method is at the heart of the drama classes, writing clubs, and weekend workshops at Class Acts. These creative programs for kids aged 2–16, led by native-speaking educators, have been supporting bilingual language development in Prague for 18 years.

Jumping straight into conversation, without over-reliance on translation or theory, is the fastest way to build confidence. This is the hallmark of the immersive methods used at the Berlitz Language Centre to get students speaking from day one. Their tried-and-trusted approach builds confidence fast via classes led by native speakers.
