Learn Polish for everyday use, university, tourism with FUN and passion

From 71.28 $ /h

I am a native speaker of Polish. I attended a Polish primary and secondary school and recently obtained a C2 exam.

During our lessons, I'll help you develop your skills (oral/written, and not only). I'll also try to help you improve your pronunciation and understand those complex noun cases and verbs. I assign homework and after I receive it, correct it thoroughly additionally providing a lot of remarks/examples if they are necessary.

I worked at a language center between 2009-2016 where I was a director of studies and taught mainly English as a foreign/second language. Since 2005, when I first started teaching Polish, I have taught children and adults on a variety of language proficiency levels and with a variety of needs, mainly individually.

I constantly seek progress, meaning that I study further through reading books/articles concerning didactics/methodology and learning difficulties (chiefly dyslexia), observing other teachers as well as attending seminars (online or face-to-face).

During my lessons I use :
- Skype/Whatsapp/Messenger to connect with you,
- Google Docs to keep notes, which you can check at any time and they are yours to keep,
- sketch board me to make mind maps to show connections between ideas, etc.
- books, PPP, word docs, diagrams, pics, etc.
- pronunciation/spelling/grammar games,
- authentic materials were taken from websites.

I adore my profession and desire each and every one of my students be satisfied with the lesson. That's why I make sure the atmosphere is stress-free and nice. I also want my lessons to be as effective and close to real-life needs as possible. Therefore, I make sure they are well-prepared, although they can be altered at any point, should such an opportunity arise. I like explaining things in a variety of ways as well as make use of dictionaries, diagrams, etc. When it comes to students who want to obtain certificates, I am very demanding.

What can I teach?
- I would love to help you improve/develop all language skills (speaking/writing-listening/reading + grammar/vocabulary/pronunciation),
- I can prepare you for state certificates such as A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2,
- I would love to help you with homework and assignments (literature, history) from school and university (but please contact me about that IN ADVANCE).

About Me

I am passionate about teaching and you will see it in the course of our lessons as they will be fun, yet very effective and as close to real life as possible. I am multilingual which means I have learned a lot of languages and this, in turns, helps me spot/understand the troublesome parts you will probably be going through - and I will do my best to facilitate it for you.

I am scholastic when it comes to correcting HW and leave a lot of comments, so you can understand what you did wrong.

I use a variety of materials (books/articles/youtube/quizlet, etc.) in the teaching process.
I have helped a lot of students achieve their goals (prepare efficiently for an interview, get FCE/CPE/IELTS, etc.) or simply have an interesting conversation with the view to improving pronunciation/grammar.

During the lesson we can use Skype/WhatsApp or any other communicator and Google Docs simultaneously for notes.

It all depends on why you're learning a language. Is it to pass exams? Is it for communication? The methods change depending on the goal and needs. During the lessons, I adapt to the needs of the people I'm working with, I look for topics that might interest them, and I'm open to dialogue and suggestions.

Do you find history and geography boring subjects? That's because you haven't contacted me yet. In these classes, I'll make studying the ancient Spanish monarchy, democratic governments, dictatorships, republics, wars, and everything related to them fun. Of course, I won't neglect another very important subject: geography. I'll teach you everything you want to know about it, including how drones work and their features!

This class helps students who want to improve their French and Spanish speaking, grammar, and understanding. As a fluent French speaker with an international background, I focus on real world dialogue. Spanish and History are my college minors. I've been studying both and speaking with natives for 14 years.

In my course I help with pronunciation practice, explain grammar, conversational situations, and culture to help students better understand what being French really means.

Whether you are learning French Spanish or History for school, travel, or personal interest, I structure every session to the student’s level and goals.

With several years of experience as a student tutor, I offer to give lessons to students from sixth grade to twelfth grade, with the aim of support, homework help, reinforcement or in-depth study of concepts.
The lessons are fun, based on the needs and expectations of the student, with whom I spend time discussing in order to develop the working method together.
Although I place great importance on learning and understanding concepts, I also focus on improving the student's learning methods.
Typical structure of a one-hour lesson (duration and content may vary depending on individual needs)
-10 minutes of questions and discussion on the difficulties related to the last session.
-Divided into two 20-minute parts, with two different themes to vary the concepts covered, with both theoretical and practical work.
-10 final minutes devoted to any questions and reflection on the themes to be addressed in the next session.
