Hello! My name is Pola and I live in Essex, UK.
I've been teaching languages for over 4 years now.
I am also a licensed windsurfing teacher, mostly working during summer season.
I started teaching when I met my british friend, who wanted to learn Polish. That helped me realise that I could use my previous teaching experience to help people learn languages! That's also how I started coworking with other teachers on creating efficient learning plans for Oxbridge candidates.
Currently, I am also a part-time interpreter for governmental institutions in the UK ... and ... an artist!
I easily get interested in new topics but my favourite topics are arts, sports and foods!
Me as a Teacher
Learn how to think and communicate!
As an experienced tutor, windsurfing teacher, and artist, I bring creativity and passion to every lesson. So you can communicate confidently and overcome language anxiety.
I started learning english in a bilingual school (lessons were delivered in a foreign language). Being Polish and then working as an interpreter in the UK helped me learn more about the languages and their intricacies.
I decided to teach conversational Polish, so my students can focus on speaking rather than worrying about all the grammar rules. I believe learning through speaking is a great way to master Polish grammar!
