About me
Hi, I'm Dorota
I'm a teacher of Polish as a foreign language with over a decade of experience. I teach online, working with people from all over the world who are building their lives in Poland.
I know that adults learn fastest when the language is connected to real life: their job, their family, their everyday errands. That's why I don't teach grammar in a vacuum — every structure comes from a situation you'll actually meet.
I'm also a state-exam examiner and a member of the committees that certify learners of Polish. That means I know the B1 exam from the inside — what the examiners look for, where people lose points and how to prepare for it with confidence.
Whether you want to feel at home in Poland, grow your career or get that B1 certificate — I'll help you get there, one real conversation at a time.

FAQ
Good to know before we start
Do I need to know any Polish to start?
No. We can start from absolute zero. At the beginning lessons run with English support, and we switch to more and more Polish as you grow.
Why do I need the B1 certificate?
The state B1 certificate of Polish is required for permanent residence and for Polish citizenship. It's an official document recognised by the offices.
How do online lessons work?
We meet on video (Zoom or Google Meet). You get materials, notes and — on request — a recording, so you can review everything between lessons.
How long does B1 preparation take?
It depends on your starting level and how often we meet. After a free consultation I'll give you a realistic plan up to your chosen exam date.
Individual or group — what should I choose?
Individual lessons give the fastest progress and full flexibility. Groups cost less and add motivation and speaking partners. We'll pick what fits your goal and budget.
How much do lessons cost?
The trial lesson is free. Individual lessons cost 120 zł per 60 minutes, group courses 50 zł per meeting (when a group forms). You'll get a plan for your goal after the trial lesson — with no obligations.
In what language are the lessons?
Mostly in Polish, with English support whenever something needs a clear explanation — especially at the beginning.
