English learning podcast & and now also a weekly talk-show podcast about football⚽ which reviews the Premier League game weeks. Are you studying English alone? Are you at B1, B2, or C1 level? Do you need more listening practice? If so, I might be your guy!!! 😇. I’m a university and DELTA-qualified English teacher from the Czech Republic with more than 10 years of experience teaching English to foreigners in the Czech Republic as well as the United Kingdom. 🤓. Listening to podcasts is part of my own daily routine because I believe that regular listening is a must for every committed English learner 💪. In my podcasts, you may follow my English learning journey as I interview my friends, students, and interesting people from all around the world 🌍. A lot of my episodes feature native English speakers. Most famously, there are about 10 episodes with Luke Thompson from Luke’s English Podcast who has been my primary source of inspiration 😎. I also have episodes in which I describe my experiences of taking CELTA and DELTA courses, as well as IELTS exam. You will probably find some silly episodes in the archive, too, as I sometimes just want to have fun 😃. Recently, I’ve also started publishing my football show about the Premier League in audio format.

Episode 439 - I’m Putting Native Speakerism to Bed
Tuesday Jul 11, 2023
Tuesday Jul 11, 2023
I have decided to stop talking about the subject matter that has been poisoning me for several years now and it is culminating here in Vietnam. I can't go on like this so I made this episode as a public announcement explaining my decision to abandon this topic. And I would like you my listeners to hold me accountable.
If you want to know why it came to this, have a listen to this very personal and slightly depressing episode.

Episode 437 - Why I Had to Quit Football to Become an English Teacher
Saturday Jun 24, 2023
Saturday Jun 24, 2023
This episode of Zdenek's English Podcast is a different kettle of fish.
Damian, one of the members of the Achievers Chamber, decided to give me an unexpected and rather unique gift. He asked Chat GPT 4 to write a book about me and it's so impressive that I can't help but share it with you.
The book is a moving story of how I had to quit football and somehow ended up becoming an English teacher instead. It's full of metaphors, analogies and high-level vocabulary which I'll later explain to you.
Now, it's time to sit back, relax and enjoy the introductory chapter from "The Unplayed Symphony - A Football Lover's Guide to Teaching English." _________________________________________________________________________

Episode 436 - 10 reasons why a Czech person would want to move to the USA
Saturday Jun 10, 2023
Saturday Jun 10, 2023
In this episode, I speak to Michal, a Czech guy who also works as a teacher and has been living in the USA for several years.
He's married to an American woman and therefore well settled.
Before recording this episode, I asked Chat GPT to generate 10 questions which revolve around the topic of why a Czech person might want to move to the US. So yeah that's what you can expect in this one.
If you happen to be a Czech learner, here's one of Michal's latest episodes of his Czech podcast where he also mentions recording this episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mI0l0Lf3oyI&ab_channel=%C4%8Ce%C5%A1tinasMichalem
