Polish for English-Speaking Adults: Family, Work and Daily Life

From 51 C$ /h

Would you like to speak Polish more confidently with your partner’s family, colleagues or people you meet in everyday situations?

I am a native Polish teacher with six years of recent teaching experience and an international professional background. I hold an MA in Conference Interpreting from London Metropolitan University and previously worked for approximately ten years as a public-service interpreter in the United Kingdom.

My lessons are particularly suitable for English-speaking adults who want to:

• communicate with Polish relatives and friends;
• manage everyday situations in Poland;
• understand natural, connected Polish;
• speak without translating every sentence in their head;
• use Polish more confidently at work;
• understand Polish grammar through clear explanations in English.

Each course begins with an assessment of your current level, goals and priorities. We then create a practical learning plan based on the situations in which you genuinely need Polish.

Lessons combine speaking, listening, practical vocabulary, pronunciation and grammar. You will practise complete phrases and realistic conversations rather than memorising isolated word lists.

I teach all levels, from complete beginner to advanced, and adapt the pace, materials and homework to each student.

Book a lesson and start using Polish with greater confidence in real-life situations.

Extra information

Please tell me your approximate level, your main reason for learning Polish and the situations in which you would most like to use the language. If you are a complete beginner, no previous knowledge of Polish is required.

Communication is the most versatile and sought-after skill today. Whether it's to succeed in an oral exam, convince during a job interview, lead a professional meeting, or simply overcome shyness and express oneself clearly, speaking is something that can be learned and practiced.

I offer you tailored support to unlock your potential, structure your thinking and give impact to your interventions, both oral and written (in person or online).
The strategic focus of our work:
Ease and Oral Eloquence: In-depth work on non-verbal communication (posture, gaze, gestures) and paraverbal communication (voice management, intonation, rhythm, silences).

Managing stage fright and stress: Breathing and grounding techniques to overcome the fear of public speaking and transform stress into positive energy.

Structuring techniques: Learning impactful argumentative structures. How to capture attention from the first few seconds, maintain audience interest, and conclude with a powerful message.

Written expression techniques: Clarity of style, choice of vocabulary, writing of professional emails, reports or impactful speeches.

University English Instructor| Started teaching English 9 years ago| Specializing in Conversational English.

My teaching approach is designed to develop communication skills above all. We watch or read materials, such as videos, articles, stories, poems, caricatures, then discuss them; we act out situations from everyday life; we take positions and practice debates. However, this doesn’t mean that we just practice speaking. I also make sure the learner is not running in circles. I’m here to ensure that they do not keep repeating the same mistakes or keep using the same expressions over and over in conversation.
In order to keep making progress, I take my student on a journey that involves:
• Improving their grammar.
• Fixing their pronunciation.
• Enriching their vocabulary by learning to use new words and common idioms.
By the end of this course, you should be able to speak English fluently and confidently.

PS: Because of my academic specialty, I also help with academic writing and creative writing.

Hello everyone!
I'm Giorgia and I come from Torino, Italy.
I offer my native knowledge of Italian to any of you, who wants to discover this beautiful language.

I teach for all levels, from very beginners to advanced speakers, passing through amateurs or simply curious of any age. I can also help with university exams and school works/assignments.
Being a pianist and a piano teacher, I already have lots of experience with teaching and pedagogical approach with the whole range of ages.

The lesson is intended to meet the student needs: the focus can be on the grammar, conversation or literature. In case of a middle-level speaker, the lesson will cover all four language's abilities: listening, speaking, writing and reading. My suggestion of a well planned lesson is, for any level, to divide it into two parts: grammar first and then conversation (covering all the abilities mentioned above).

Thank you for your attention and looking forward to meeting you !!

✅ Why do some people trust you... and others resist everything you say?

Why can the same argument convince one person and leave another completely indifferent?

Why do some negotiations fail before they've even really begun?

Because words are only part of the message.

✅ Behind every behavior, every reaction, every silence, there are motivations, fears, needs, defense mechanisms, stakes, and a particular way of perceiving the world. For each person, the right words, the right approach. For the 'profiler' that I am, there is no doubt about it.

This training program offers you the techniques, methods, and tools to learn how to decipher human behavior. Not to manipulate, but to better understand, communicate more effectively, and act with greater precision. And to influence others.

✅ You will learn, among other things, to:

→ Getting to know you better
Identify your own mechanisms, your automatic reactions, your strengths, your limitations, and how your personality influences your decisions and relationships.

→ Read the others with more nuance
Observe what lies behind the words: the inconsistencies, the unspoken, the changes in behavior, the intentions and the real stakes of an interaction.

→ Decoding verbal and non-verbal communication
Word choice, tone of voice, rhythm, hesitations, silences, gestures, attitudes, micro-behavioral changes: learn to observe before interpreting.

→ **Understanding psychological profiles
Why do some people need control, recognition, security, or freedom? Why do some attack, avoid, seduce, resist, or constantly seek to convince?

→ Adapt your communication to the person you are facing.
Because you can't convince everyone in the same way.

→ Better negotiate and manage complex situations
Understanding what is really at stake for the other party in order to identify the right levers and build a more effective communication strategy.

→ Achieve your goals with greater relational intelligence
By better understanding the people with whom you need to convince, collaborate, negotiate, lead, or build a relationship.

✅ True power isn't about talking more. It's about understanding before acting. Understanding what motivates a person. Understanding what they're really trying to protect. Understanding what they're not saying. Understanding why they're reacting... sometimes even before they themselves put words to what's happening.

This training will equip you with tools from psychology, behavioral analysis, communication, and profiling to develop an essential skill: the ability to better understand people. Because when you understand yourself better, you make better decisions. When you understand others better, you communicate more effectively.

And when you understand the psychological dynamics at play in an interaction, you significantly increase your ability to positively influence a situation and achieve your goals. Don't just listen to what people say. Learn to understand why they say it.

In just a few minutes, you can sometimes understand about a person what months of discussions have never revealed...

✅ THE CONSULTANT:

Having graduated from a prestigious French engineering school after preparatory classes and from an Ivy League university in the United States, our teacher and trainer has specialized and worked for over 18 years in Europe and North America in the field, in renowned international public and private institutions, regularly speaking at forums and conferences, and also offering personalized INDIVIDUAL support, with pedagogy and careful methodology as the key words.

✅ LOCATION, TIME

✓ Locations: Switzerland (Geneva, Lausanne, Fribourg, Zurich, Neuchâtel, Lugano, Basel, Bern, Lucerne), Belgium (Brussels, Antwerp, Charleroi, Liège), Luxembourg. On request: France (Paris, Lyon) and Canada (Montreal).

Currently, we primarily use videoconferencing, a highly popular format: it offers the same quality as in-person meetings, flexible organization, time savings, flexibility, comfort, and an eco-friendly approach. Content, notes, and recommendations are shared directly via a dedicated chat.

✓ Indeed, apart from the classic advantages of videoconferencing (time saving related to travel & their unforeseen events, eco-responsibility, increased schedule flexibility, etc.), the quality of the session & the interaction remain identical. In addition, the entire exchange, notes and recommendations are immediately transcribed on the dedicated chat.

✓ To support us among ourselves & to be pleasant to you in this sustainable / particular period and in a spirit of solidarity, the fees are temporarily reduced and will not increase after the start of our sessions.

✓ Languages: French/English.

✓ Progress following these private sessions is noticeable from 1 to 2 sessions (*study 2026).

✓ As other people do regularly, you can also please your loved ones by offering gift vouchers available all year round.

CONTACT / PROGRAM

✓ A la carte program: evaluated and adapted to each need.

Learning to speak English fluently is about more than memorizing grammar rules—it's about feeling at ease when you need to use it: in conversations at work, in school, while traveling, or in everyday situations that call for quick, natural responses.

With experience teaching adult professionals on language and travel communication, I focus on building both your language skills and your confidence. My feedback approach draws on mindfulness principles, helping you notice and release the self-judgment or anxiety that often gets in the way of speaking freely, as non-native speakers often feel. Rather than fixating on every mistake, we work on staying present and communicating clearly. I will help you improve your English skills through consistent fluency practice, paired with mindful, constructive correction—so growth feels natural, not stressful.

This class covers practical, real-world English — conversations at work and in school, travel scenarios, and everyday interactions — while also expanding your vocabulary naturally through real conversation, so you leave each session more capable and more at ease using the language.
