I'm interested in cultures, social connections, and healthy lifestyles, which includes my yoga practice, cycle touring, hiking, nutrition, and meditation. I’m also interested in anthropology, positive psychology, and Buddhism. I’m an open-minded person and like to learn new things. I've taught English during my travels as a volunteer in local schools and recently after two years of teaching on Italki I've upgraded to a professional language teacher. My approach is mainly intuitive. To improve my teaching skills I took a 120 hrs online TEFL course to be able to explain specific grammar issues to my students. I can teach beginners and intermediate students who'd like to build and reinforce their learning through speaking practice. I love languages and myself I'm learning Japanese and French at the moment and that's why I can easily understand your difficulties with memorizing new words and frustrations of not being able to pronounce things correctly.

Paulina is a great conversationalist. It is so much fun getting to use Polish to talk about such interesting and engaging topics. She is also a very supportive and encouraging person!

Paulina was great! She was very patient, asked questions, and was very responsive to my own questions. It can be nerve racking learning a new language and then attempting to speak it with a native speaker, but she put me right at ease.

Paulina was very helpful in sketching out a plan for me to improve my Polish to grow my business within the Canadian Polish community. She also recommended some good resources for further learning. Whenever I did not know a word in Polish, she assisted me and helped me to expand my vocabulary. I will definitely be booking more lessons with Paulina.
