Hello, my name is Jan. I am a law graduate with a passion for teaching and learning languages. I speak English, Polish, Russian, and Spanish. On Preply, I teach Polish and English from the elementary level up to advanced conversation classes with a particular focus on building specialistic vocabulary, such as legal or business. Currently, I work with students learning Polish and their reviews prove that my approach is effective. I have been working as a tutor full-time for the last year. In the previous years, I have worked as a volunteer tutor in a charity IntoUniversity, where my responsibilities covered helping students prepare for their exams in different subjects, including languages. Now, I am using this experience to teach privately with Preply. My methodology is the same for teaching Polish and English. However, I tailor classes to the individual needs and learning goals of my students. I use interactive materials to boost students' learning. In particular, games and video clips, as the studies show that different brain stimuli enhance language absorption. Depending on the student's language skills, the common themes in my classes are news reading section, vocabulary learning, and applying it to sentences or dialogues, picture description, video-based discussion with follow up questions. I adapt my methodology to children and adults with zero knowledge of the studied language. While the session is still very interactive, the focus is on learning new words and simple sentence structures and applying these to real-life situations. I conclude the session with a quick revision and homework task, should this be the wish of my student. If you are considering classes with me but your focus is grammar and syntax, I am not the right point of contact. The focus of my teaching is to be able to speak and use the language in daily life.
