The study analyses the implementation of a bilingual team-teaching model at the 6th Primary School in Cheb, where German is taught as the first foreign language. Two tandem types were compared: L1+L2 (Czech-German teachers) and L1+L1 (two Czech teachers). In the L1+L2 tandem, German was consistently used as the medium of instruction, promoting linguistic accuracy, while the L1+L1 tandem relied on playful activities that enhanced motivation. On average, German was used in 67% of lesson time. The findings highlight the importance of teacher cooperation and targeted professional development.
