About Marta


Bio

Hi my name is Marta, I am a native Polish speaker, born and raised in Poland where I lived for most of my life. I graduated from Polish High School and I've got my Master’s degree form Polish University - Jagiellonian University of Krakow, major: Polish-English Interpreting and Translation. Polish is my first language which I still use every day. I don't have any foreign accent, so I can teach you proper pronunciation.

Hi my name is Marta, I am a native Polish speaker, born and raised in Poland where I lived for most of my life. I graduated from Polish High School and I've got my Master’s degree form Polish University - Jagiellonian University of Krakow, major: Polish-English Interpreting and Translation. Polish is my first language which I still use every day. I don't have any foreign accent, so I can teach you proper pronunciation.

I’m very flexible at the scope of teaching: I teach Polish at all levels: beginners to advanced, or if you just need to practice speaking or polish your Polish I will be more than happy to help with that too. I teach speaking, reading and writing, but if you need to know more about grammar, I am also very proficient in that. I can introduce Polish culture and customs to you as a part of our classes. I have been tutoring since I was in college, helping students to prepare to their Matura (polish equivalent of SAT), but also children and adults, who want to improve their language skills or learn from scratch. I enjoy working with adults, teenagers and children. I am very patient, extremely reliable, I believe in repetition and consistency, and represent commitment to excellence. I am passionate about languages.

I'm available in person or online. I always provide the first meeting as a free consultation class, so I can understand students’ needs and give them the chance to decide if they like my tutoring methods and if we are a right fit. I am easy to reach and will always provide prompt responses. The cancellation notice is 12 hours. Please don't hesitate to contact me for your free consultation meeting!

Extremely Knowledgeable Polish Tutor

Marta is extremely knowledgeable in the Polish language as well as Polish history and culture. Since Marta currently spends part of the year residing in the US and part residing in Poland she has a unique perspective and approach to tutoring. When I began my Polish lessons with Marta my knowledge of Polish and my speaking ability were very limited. Thanks to Marta, in a very short period of time my knowledge of Polish words and language is much improved and I am now able to speak, read and write Polish quite effectively and comfortably. Marta has a very pleasant, comfortable and respectful approach to tutoring and is very accommodating. She has a great sense of humor and would periodically lighten up a lesson by introducing various Polish idioms. She has the ability to keep every lesson moving at a very nice pace and to make them interesting and enjoyable. I've had experience with other Polish tutors and Marta is by far the most knowledgeable, the most pleasant and most importantly the most effective and successful Polish tutor. I would highly recommend her to anyone wishing to have an enjoyable and successful Polish learning experience.

Very patient tutor

Marta and I are heading towards our fourth lesson, and I am very pleased with her. She's very attentive and patient. We're focusing on conversation and she makes Polish very easy to understand!

Wonderful Teacher!

Marta has been great thus far! I've been learning Polish on my own via Apps for eight years on-and-off. I wanted help to take my knowledge to the next level and get beyond broken conversations. Marta straight away picked up on my level and went into a deep dive of the basics to help me make connections on things (like grammar) that I had been introduced to by the Apps but never mastered or knew why they were as such. Marta is patient and I have ended each lesson with her feeling super confident and excited with my progress! I look forward to continuing working with Marta and highly recommend her!

Great teacher, fun class!

Marta is very patient and fun to work with! I am new to learning polish, and it can be very daunting as a native English speaker. So far she has taught the fundamentals of the language, shared info on culture, practiced conversations, and recommended tips to best learn the language. She is not forcing me to memorize words, but rather teaching in a way so I can gradually learn and feel comfortable speaking the language on my own. So far I’m really enjoying the classes!

Fabulous tutor!

I had a wonderful trip to Poland in September 2021 -- one reason it was so great was because of my Wyzant Polish teacher, Marta S. I visited Warsaw, Krakow and Gdansk, and also went on a day trip to Bialystok, where my Jewish grandfather Leo emigrated from over 100 years ago. Polish is such a difficult language, almost as difficult as Chinese and Arabic according to the U.S Department of State. But Marta not only made Polish easier, but fun! I felt comfortable reading signs, menus and even exchanging some greetings with Poles I met. Many younger Poles speak English, but they were so delighted when a native English-speaker could actually pronounce words correctly. Marta also answered my questions about Polish history, food and the culture. My classes with her were language classes and cultural orientation classes combined! I highly recommend Marta. Besides being a terrific teacher—knowledgeable, patient and flexible—she is a terrific person.

Fun and knowledgeable!

My kids love meeting with Marta every week. She is able to teach to their level, and have them excited to learn Polish every week, by making it fun. Even though they’ve only met a few times, their language has already improved!
