Hi. I will be moving to Czech and will likely be working at a private language school. Is there a set curriculum or do I have a lot of freedom in what and how I teach? I am debating on how much of my TEFL materials I should pack with me. At my current position I created the curriculum, so I have the ability to choose my own textbook to use or to use none at all- is this a likely scenario in Praha?

thanks for your help!

Generally, working for a private language school, you will spend most of your time teaching businesspeople in their offices. There is usually no curriculumn set by the school or by the business/clients, so you should be pretty free to negotiate with your students what will be the most useful for them.
