My name is Ania Wojtasiak, and I teach Polish
as a foreign language…
I am a graduate of the University of Warsaw. In 2004, I completed a master's degree in Polish philology (teaching specialisation).
My native language is Polish, but I also speak:
- Russian - at a professional level (TRKI-IV/C2 certificate),
- English - at an advanced level (C1),
- and Italian - at an intermediate level (B1).
I’ve been teaching Polish to foreigners since 2005, which is over 15 years now. Initially, I worked at language schools in Warsaw, but then I set up my own business at 2007. I conduct various types of classes: individual and group, in-person and online, for adults and for children, as well as private home lessons and training sessions for companies, and I can help you prepare for the government-recognised certification exam at every level.
I can explain grammar complexities simply (it isn’t as difficult as it may seem, really!), but I will also willingly practise casual conversation with you over a cup of tea, improvise a job interview in Polish, or read Polish books together with your children. While conducting my lessons, I use different coursebooks and other teaching materials, some of them old and some brand-new, with the goal of making the learning process interesting and tailored to your needs. In addition, I like to prepare a variety of teaching materials myself, which I am happy to share. You can find them on the "Materials" subpage.
In my line of work, I appreciate having the opportunity to meet and work with great people from different countries, cultures, and backgrounds. I’m really quite proud of all the exams my students have passed, the language barriers they've overcome, the books they’ve read in Polish for the first time, and all other successes (both big and small) connected to improving their command of the language. Accompanying learners on the path of exploring my mother tongue is a real pleasure!
I’ve always liked to read; as a child, my dream job was to work in a library. To this day, I often read books in my spare time, especially in the fields of belles-lettres, religious studies, and psychology. My passion is learning foreign languages and exploring the cultures related to them. Besides my native Polish, I already speak Russian, English, and Italian, and I'm not going to stop there! 🙂
However, I am not a typical bookworm, as I also like spending my time in active ways: on a yoga mat, at the gym, on long walks, or even on a bicycle. I’ve been practising yoga for over 10 years now, and since 2019, I have been working as a yoga teacher. Last year, with a desire to deepen my knowledge and develop my skills, I enrolled in postgraduate studies at the Józef Piłsudski University of Physical Education in Warsaw in the field of relaxation and yoga.
