TEACHING METHODS


Do you want to speak Polish every time you really need it

instead of following a standardized curriculum?

You choose the content
We prepare the curriculum

We teach Polish which can be used in your everyday life in all situations. We always adapt content to your needs. Polish language can be learned through very different topics. Foreign language acquisition is much easier when you learn what you’re really interested in. That’s why content is always yours. We tailor it to you.

Do you want to achieve important complex linguistic skills in an easier manner

instead of declension in 14 forms?

You talk
We navigate

Language is usually used in its complexity. That’s why we don’ t separate content and its form by extracting some single Polish grammar rule from it. We give you useful structures in an accurate context rather than Polish declension or Polish conjugation by themselves. It’ s obvious you don’t want to lose your time doing useless exercises. We suggest activities involving meaningful analyses of information and leading to better recall.

Do you want to receive interesting materials, relevant to your work, hobby or other needs

instead of standardized manuals or „fill the gap” exercises?

You expect relevant handouts

We’ve got it

We’ve got our own database with all kinds of materials, stories and handouts making Polish learning effective, relevant and pleasant. We publish our text and podcasts related to the latest polish news on cupofpolish.com and we try to keep it up – to – date. Above all, we are very good researchers and creative authors.

Do you want to see your progress

instead of taking exams?

You work on your projects
We collect the finished products

We build your individual, personalized Polish language portfolio with all you need, all you’ve prepared and all you’ve learnt in order to show your achievements and progress. That’s also the way to assess our mutual work during Polish language classes.

Do you want to not struggle with new Slavic sounds, all this Polish crackling noise

instead of misunderstanding and mispronounciation?

You listen
We train your ear

We manage it with Polish phonetics training including both – auditory and pronunciation parts. Knowing everything about Polish pronunciation – prosody, articulation and other specific issues in this domain – we will actually give you a hand with speaking Polish.

Do you use any new tech and apps

instead of storing paper?

You’ve got your device
We’ ve got on-line resources

That’s for sure. Everyone does. You have easy access to your Polish stuff anytime and anywhere. You can switch on your device and enjoy learning Polish even if you’ ve unfortunately forgotten to take your notes with you.
