This course is designed based on Slavic languages mutual intelligibility phenomena. Since you already speak a Slavic language, you have a significant advantage when learning Polish. We can start with an immersion into Polish straight away.
The course is conversation based. I provide preparatory materials and grammatical exercise to be completed outside of the lesson time so that we have more time to discuss the topic in Polish as much as we can.
We record the audio of the sessions, this way, we generate additional content that you can listen to reinforce what you've learned. I provide learning materials that are adjusted to your level and interests.
My lessons are based on the principle of scaffolding, moving you progressively toward stronger understanding and, ultimately, greater independence in the learning process.
I like to get to know you and the things you find interesting. Exercising flexibility in what and how I teach allows me to create a course workbook that reflects you as an individual.
I’ll help guide your pronunciation of even the most difficult Polish words in a constructive learning environment. We’ll create methods to grow your abilities to self-monitor and self-correct.
I believe the most efficient way to learn Polish is to speak it. You’ll learn to speak with confidence by actively participating in the engaging and guided conversations we’ll have each time you book a lesson.
From your personalized workbook to robots that help remind you to stay focused on your goals, I’ve thought long and hard about what digital tools we can use in and out of class to facilitate a productive learning environment.
Take your learning on the go. All of what we work on together is built with mobile in mind. Access your workbook or join in on the community conversations via your phone or tablet.
Deeper connections. Better learning outcomes. My process makes learning Polish faster, easier and a whole lot of fun!
I believe that a well-designed classroom should be carefully thought through and purposefully crafted. My teaching methodology is specifically targeted to be clear, easy to follow and results driven.
I see potential in technology and its ability to create real progress in learning outcomes. I leverage tools that allow me to create highly personalized learning experiences that engage and motivate.
Language learning can feel like a lonely endeavor, but it doesn't have to be. I've built a social community around one common goal -- learn Polish. Community is core to my philosophy. I think you'll notice.
