P.A.R.K. English Training Centre

What P.A.R.K. English Training Centre does

P.A.R.K. English Training Centre (Jazyková škola P.A.R.K.) is a private language school headquartered in Brno, Czech Republic, founded in 1992 and operating with approximately 25 employees. The school specializes in English-language instruction for individual learners, with a stated portfolio covering general English courses, Cambridge exam preparation (B2 First, C1 Advanced, C2 Proficiency), conversation classes, individual tutoring, corporate training, summer courses, and teacher-training programs (DVPP-accredited seminars and the PARK Conference). It also operates children's and youth programmes and a Ministry of Education-accredited post-secondary "pomaturitní studium" track, and it holds the designation of the largest authorized Cambridge English testing center in the Czech Republic.

Delivery is organized around small in-person classes of typically 7-8 students (capped at 10), augmented by live online courses delivered through a standard video-conferencing platform and a short-format online SKU called FOCUS 30 that offers 30-minute individual lessons. Teaching staff hold internationally recognized credentials (CELTA, DELTA, TEFL, Trinity CertTESOL), and the school maintains partnerships with Cambridge Assessment English, Alliance Française Brno, and Österreich Institut Brno. In June 2026, P.A.R.K. published its first authored methodology book, "Praktické aktivity pro výuku psaní," extending its reach into teacher-training content.

The business model is tuition-based, with revenue drawn from semester course fees, individual lesson fees, corporate training contracts, Cambridge exam administration fees, summer programme fees, study materials, and teacher-training events. There is no disclosed pricing schedule, no public enrolment count, and no revenue figure; the school's reach is described qualitatively as "thousands of students" over its 30-plus-year operating history.
