One of the main reasons that our students learn Polish so quickly and effectively is that instead of pouring over textbooks and writing endless essays, our teachers take a more practical approach. Our teachers are all well qualified and competent, which helps our students to quickly gain knowledge through listening, speaking and repeating learned phrases. Instructors also gradually introduce grammar, oral and written exercises, as well as vocabulary and linguistic explanations. We develop the four fundamentals of language learning - reading, writing, speaking and listening - but speaking is emphasized the most.

In order to maintain our high standard of service to our students, the school employs only highly educated and experienced teachers. All have experience teaching Polish as a foreign language and most have degrees from the renowned Jagiellonian University. Teacher evaluation and development courses are held frequently to keep the staff current with the latest teaching techniques. When we select teachers for individual courses, we take into account both their knowledge and experience in a specific area (business, banking, law, etc.), as well as their personalities, so that they can meet the students' expectations. A customized study plan can be designed according to each individual students needs, at the same price as normal lessons.

Courses are planned at all levels of proficiency, for the student at the beginning, intermediate, advanced, or professional level. We are liberal as far as what material the teachers can use. Each student has different needs and learning desires, and due to the nature of one-on-one study, having one format is not desirable. We actually have many books available for our students and teachers to use, but if they are not asked for we do not force them upon the student. Teachers check out the books they need each day. Some teachers prefer to use books; some do not. It generally depends on their feel for the student and the student's individual needs.
