Testimonials

Check out what my students have to say about working with me:

I’d already been learning Polish for a few years, and reached ‘intermediate’ level, when I started lessons with Anna. She is my third teacher, and definitely the best! She has helped me so much, especially with oral communication. Always patient and good-humoured (even when I forget something I learnt last week), she explains grammatical rules very clearly – and that’s important to me because I want to understand the structure of the language. She has great enthusiasm for Polish culture as well as language, and finds interesting texts to read or listen to.

What I like best is that Anna’s lessons are always carefully planned and structured, with the appropriate materials to meet my specific needs - we don’t just work through one chapter in a book and then move on to the next. If I have a problem, Anna will find new ways of explaining the point or new exercises for revision. Learning Polish is a challenge – I’d be lying if I said it was an easy language – and sometimes it feels like a slow or even rather frustrating journey. But thanks to Anna it’s hugely enjoyable and rewarding – she constantly provides the inspiration and encouragement I need to take the next steps.
