Prophet Mohammad never prayed more than 8 rakahs. It was Ameerul Momineen Omar Bin Khattab who advised men to pray 20 rakah with Jamat to get more reward from Allah. He himself said, I have suggested a bidah but it is good bidah. So I have option to pray 8 or 20 rakahs in Taraveeh prayers.

Teraweeh prayer is 20 rakats long. It's made up of 2 rakats. So you just read 2 rakaats ten times... Understand?
