Madam,
May I point out first, that you are about to correspond with the Czech Republic (not Slovakia). Second, my g/father's generation learned German, as a second language, my father's generation learned French, my generation learned Russian. This generation, particularly the last 10 years, learn English, as a second tongue. I am led to believe, that in Prague alone, there is over 40,000 young Americans living there, mostly teaching English (or is it "American"?). If any of the people, you are about to approach, have young (teenage andup) children, there always should be someone round there, to help with your letter.
As far the "register" is concerned, the Ministry of Interior of Czech Republic(Ministerstvo vnitra Ceske republiky) publishes lot of interesting information, on their page http://www.mvcr.cz/http://www.mvcr.cz/ some of it in English.
