About me - English
I was born and raised in Poland, and over the past decade, I've had the incredible opportunity to live, study, and work in the UK, the USA, Spain, Argentina, and Italy. I'm an avid travel enthusiast, sports lover, and language aficionado. I love history, geopolitics, and economics. One of my wildest dreams is to see the Polish national football team win the World Cup.
I love to share my energy, passion, and motivation to help you learn a new language. With each lesson you’re getting my full commitment—my best attitude, enthusiasm, and knowledge. Over the years of teaching, I’ve developed habits and techniques that really make a difference in your progress. My lessons focus on a natural, conversational approach where you immediately start using what you learn in a structured way. Almost like spending time with a language partner instead of just a teacher.

Qualifications & Experience
I have been teaching Polish, English, Italian, and Spanish since 2020. I am a certified Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) teacher and can conduct lessons in all four of these languages.
Although my profile on VerbalPlanet is relatively new, I bring several years of solid teaching experience, strong passion, and a long self-directed learning journey that has allowed me to master the four languages I speak fluently. In addition, I can also communicate effectively in German and Russian. Book a lesson and see the results on your own.
Teaching Approach
Your confidence, interests, and needs are my top priority. At the start, we’ll set clear language goals together, and then I’ll create a tailored learning plan to help you achieve them. For each lesson, you’ll receive materials to study on your own—whether it’s podcasts, videos, or articles—and I’ll give you homework with specific instructions to guide your progress. I’ll help you continually raise the bar and share techniques that helped me build effective learning habits. That said, everything is flexible, and I’m always open to feedback and ready to adjust as we go. Together, we’ll turn any fear of speaking into fluency, all in a relaxed and supportive environment.
1. Set the right attitude – No one will hand it to you. Know why you want the language and how it will improve your life.
2. Reset your mindset – Be open, curious, and ready to learn in a new way.
3. Listen and watch what you love – Choose content you enjoy, use subtitles or transcripts to get familiar with the sound.
4. Build core vocabulary – Start with basic words and phrases, even 100 words are enough to begin.
5. Use comprehensible input – Learn from material you understand at least 30% of to grasp the general meaning.
6. Find a language partner – Speak often to avoid passive learning, choose someone supportive who gives feedback.
7. Apply grammar consciously – Use grammar to improve clarity and confidence, not just to “survive” the language.
8. Immerse yourself daily – Create a micro-language world with media, reading, and speaking, even from home.
9. Travel if possible – Experiencing the culture firsthand boosts motivation and understanding.
10. Be patient and consistent – Progress takes time, consistency always wins.
