ADVERTISING IN THE CZECH REPUBLIC AND SLOVAKIAPutting up fliers that advertise your services as a native-speaking tutor is a common and often effective way to attract private students. Bulletin boards that cater to prospective students, such as those found in English-language bookstores and libraries, student lounges, and businesses that serve the English-speaking community are generally good places to start. In Prague, try the library at the American Cultural Center, the Globe Cafe and Bookstore, or the bulletin board in the downstairs lobby of the British Council as a start. In Bratislava, check out the British Council
English-Language Resource Center or the Slovak Academic Information Agency (SAIA). If you are truly ambitious, you could even advertise in the local newspapers' classifieds sections. Of course, you would need to be settled enough to have a steady address or phone number and either know how to draw up an ad in Czech or Slovak or be able to find someone to help you.The British Council English Teaching Centers, which are located in most major
cities in Central and Eastern Europe, are good resources for all prospective teachers. They were set up to further the cause of English-language instruction in general and are not necessarily reserved only for British teachers. The British Council often will furnish bulletin boards, lists of local language schools that hire native speakers, and other English-language-oriented resources. British Council in Prague

The British Council has an American counterpart called the American Cultural Center. Though not necessarily as geared toward furthering the causes of English-language instruction, the American Cultural Centers in Central and Eastern Europe usually provide libraries and other resources that may benefit the expat job hunter.
