Hello Mosu, many thanks for your reply.
In fact I already have a school, but they have the materials only in Czech...reason why I am looking for some help in finding them in English else where. would u have some tips?
Thank you!
Felipe

Driving schools which provide teaching in other language have self own materials, as they have permission to be allowed to teach it other language. So I thing if you don't use such school its just way to try to contact them and ask if they can help you or even sell you material as tests in english if you already paid other school in czech language. So try to contact those 2 above or here is another one also http://www.eautoskola.com/information
Good luck

Many thanks for tips!

I went through the process recently. Here's what I have:

Second link contains the current traffic theory tests translated into English. Do as many of them as possible by changing categories (it randomly selects out of ~3000 questions) and you'll do the test fine. Any more questions, write here or ask privately.

Good luck.

thanks forthe information!

Great link! Many thanks!
