Hello!
I’m Danuta, a dedicated Polish language specialist with a background that bridges the gap between education and corporate leadership.
While I currently teach in a primary school, I spent over a decade in the UK as an Area Operations Manager, managing large teams, budgets, and complex projects.
I hold a C1 English certificate and a Level 5 ILM Certificate in Management and Leadership, meaning I understand the specific linguistic and cultural nuances required to succeed in a professional Polish-speaking environment.
I specialize in helping professionals navigate the Polish corporate landscape. Whether you are preparing for a meeting or handling administrative tasks, I provide expert guidance on:
Business Communication: Master the formal vocabulary needed for negotiations, recruitment, and team management.
Administrative Support: Navigating PESEL, Karta Pobytu, and Meldunek.
Sector-Specific Polish: Specialized vocabulary for Education, Management, and Health & Social Care.
General Fluency: Structured lessons for all levels focusing on speaking, listening, and reading.
I am patient, organized, and person-centered. In our trial lesson, I assess your specific professional goals to build a custom roadmap. My lessons typically include: Real-world business scenarios and role-play. Practical grammar and vocabulary. Reading comprehension of professional texts. Optional writing modules for emails and reports.My teaching material

It was really nice having a class with Danuta! She provides materials and is very encouraging during the lesson. Even though it was my first class, I already feel like I learned quite a lot. I can’t wait to have my next class with her!
