Teaching methods
Preparation for Czech Language and Literature Teaching I is one out of three practical courses which help prepare the teaching student for their future job. In sequence, the courses reflect the developing knowledge, skills as well as needs of students of education, therefore, the first course is focused on activities which let the student watch.

1) 12 hours (2 whole days) of following + 2 hours of reflection with the mentoring teacher,
2) 18 hours of sitting in on classes (3 days – each day with a different class, regardless of the subject taught, preferably in classes where the student will later work in other roles) + 3 hours of reflection with the mentoring teacher,
3) 4 hours of teaching on their own + 2 hours of reflection with the mentoring teacher,
4) 6 lessons of teaching in tandem (together with the mentoring teacher, another teacher or another teacher-to-be) + 3 hours of reflection with the mentoring teacher,
5) 20 hours of other activities at school (helping correcting essays, creating teaching aids, accompanying pupils during a field-trip, organising a project day / a field-trip / a tour etc., preparing school projects, attending class meetings, getting acquainted with pedagogical documentation, helping with school/class documentation, class lessons, standing in for a teacher etc.).
