So far, I have had one class and I love it! She explains things so well and has tricks to help me memorize rules.

We bought 20 sessions with Joanna to start with. My two daughters just had their 1st lessons with her and they love her! Joanna made it fun and easy to correctly pronounce words and remember things. I feel like they already learned a lot in their first session. Even I learned a new word sitting in on the lesson and I consider myself fluent in Polish. They worked on grammar and Joanna showed my daughters an easy trick to remember how to properly conjugate verbs. It's like a light came on in my daughters' heads and they both said, "that makes sense." It just clicked. I love Joanna's strategy and visuals. She's great!

I am finally learning how to play the violin and read music. Ilona is a great teacher, very patient and friendly.

I'm sorry, I cannot handle this Instructor for my children. She wasn't me but she's not quite the people person I expected. Her personality is not a good match for a high school tutor. Unfortunately her English is not good enough. Her accent is entirely too strong. Also she does not know enough Geometry to help my kids.

Private Polish Lessons Near You

The Polish language belongs to the Slavic family of languages, which is the third-largest group in Europe, falling behind only Romance and Germanic languages. Polish first became distinguished as its own tongue in the 10th century, when Mieszko I gathered and joined the tribes within the region that were using similar languages. When the tribe eventually adopted Christianity and the Latin alphabet, Polish was cemented in history as a language that would stand the test of time.

Used widely in religious texts across Europe, Polish was one of the most commonly spoken languages in Medieval Europe. Later, due to the geopolitical struggles of the first and second World Wars, it was nearly wiped out during the early part of the 20th century. Today, Polish is widely spoken in Eastern Europe and, of course, in Poland. With about 45 million speakers around the world, learning Polish can help you find your way around an Eastern European vacation, allow you to communicate with immigrant communities all over the world, and even make it possible for you to study historic medieval texts in their original format. 

Why Learn to Speak Polish?

The Foreign Service Institute (FSI) rates Polish as a Category III language, meaning it's considered hard for a native English speaker to learn due to significant linguistic and cultural differences. The FSI estimates an average of 44 weeks or 1,100 hours of study to achieve proficiency with the Polish language. That being said, Polish is a relatively easy Slavic language for English speakers to learn because, unlike others, it uses the Latin alphabet. 

Polish's use of the Latin alphabet makes it quick for an English speaker to learn to read. Native English speakers, however, still need to learn to bend their tongues around the quite different pronunciations and sounds used in the Polish language. Widely spoken throughout the nations of Eastern Europe (such as Belarus, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Lithuania, Slovakia, and Ukraine), learning Polish is one of the best ways to communicate your way around the region — whether traveling for business or pleasure. 

Studying Polish also provides students a gateway to Eastern European culture, which is often overlooked in the American west. When you learn Polish, you'll be able to cook Polish cuisine from authentic recipes. You can also enjoy the writings of Polish poets and authors in their original text.  

What You'll Study in Polish Classes

When studying with a private Polish tutor, you'll learn much faster than you could if studying independently with free polish lessons online or in a larger language class. With a private tutor, you'll receive immediate feedback and overcome challenges quickly. Plus, private teachers customize course content to accommodate each student's interests and abilities. For example, Polish lessons for kids differ greatly from Polish classes for adults. Adults who want to learn basic travel conversation will learn different skills from those studying for business. 

Sample Curriculum for Beginner Polish Lessons

If you have little or no experience speaking Polish, then beginner lessons are for you! In beginner Polish classes, you'll learn the basics of the language to create a strong foundation of fundamental skills. Your teacher might choose to cover some of the following topics:

  • Learn the nine distinct characters of the Polish alphabet
  • Introduction to pronunciation
  • Polish greetings
  • Essential phrases
  • Numbers and counting
  • Introduction to additional Polish learning resources

Sample Curriculum for Intermediate Polish Classes

Intermediate Polish lessons are designed to take your basic skills to the next level. You'll expand upon everything you already know to begin constructing more complex sentences, improving comprehension, and communicating on your own. Your intermediate Polish teacher might cover some of the following topics:

  • Vocabulary expansion
  • Polish grammar
  • Seven noun cases
  • Three verb tenses and verb moods
  • Word classes and gender
  • Learn to type Polish letters on your keyboard

Sample Curriculum for Advanced Polish Lessons

Students who posses a high level of proficiency speaking, reading, and listening to Polish are ready for advanced lessons. Topics covered in advanced lessons depend greatly on each student's individual goals. You'll practice your skills, continue to expand vocabulary, learn advanced language topics, and focus on overcoming challenges. In advanced lessons, you'll learn to speak just like a native. Your instructor might choose to cover some of the following topics:

  • Accent reduction
  • Listening and reading comprehension
  • Inference and nuance
  • Discuss complex ideas
  • Current events
  • Culture, customs, and colloquialisms

How to Find a Polish Teacher

With a quick search on TakeLessons, you'll easily find a highly rated and experienced Polish teacher near you or online. Most teachers charge by the hour, half-hour, or lesson, but the cost of Polish classes varies from tutor to tutor. We recommend browsing through a variety of teacher profiles and student reviews before selecting your teacher. Whether you're an absolute beginner or an advanced student brushing up your skills, studying with a private Polish tutor will have you speaking like a native in no time!
