📚 How much Polish do I need to know to sign up for a course?
When considering college and learning center classes be prepared to show a language test profeciency score or take an entrance test to determine your level. Planned classes vary widely in terms of textbook quality, homework load and tests, so research those in advance. With personal Polish tutors you can find reviews for whom the tutor is effective with and which other specializations they make available (like classes for adults, etc.) For maximum flexibility, choose a tutor from those teaching online.
🔥 Why is Polish so challenging and are there ways to learn it the easy way?
Standardized language instruction practiced in schools is not the most effective way to learn Polish. Realistically, you can gain basic Polish fluency in 300 hours from zero knowledge. Studying and getting feedback a few hours a week you will be able to understand common phrases, express yourself, shop and place orders in about a year. Relocating is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a quick and fun way of acquiring the basic knowledge of Polish. After gaining basic skills, online marketplaces like Preply have Polish tutors who specialize in intensive classes for intermediate and advanced level practitioners.
🤷 How long does it take to master Polish?
Some people just have a natural ability and learn languages quickly, but for most to go beyond the basics and gain working fluency in Polish will demand at least 600 hours of practice. The required duration of time can differ quite a bit depending on your existing level of Polish or familiarity with other languages in the same group. After alphabet and basic reading it is best to use the language as often as possible: watch videos, start a journal or write posts and comments using your new language skills, seek native speakers to speak with, try more ways to think and speak in Polish out loud. If this is not easy you can also take conversational Polish classes online.
🤳 Can I choose my own Polish tutor?
In language learning academies, you can possibly choose your own tutor (from select few). Online, always! The largest selection of tested Polish tutors with extensive profiles and real student reviews is available on online language learning platforms like Preply.
🗓 What's the best time to schedule classes?
Colleges run classes two times weekly over a semester (15-week period). Language schools as a rule have shorter, 8-week, 12-week, and 16-week course sessions. Online, the number of lessons is really up to you, with early morning, day, evening and night classes available, on weekdays and/or weekends.
