First lesson
You meet your tutor and try the format; we adjust the plan if needed.
Regular lessons and progress
Check-ins and feedback after every block — you see real progress, not a feeling.
Frequently asked questions
Can I study in Poland for free?
In Polish at a state university, yes, if you are admitted on the terms for citizens — as an EU or EEA citizen or a holder of the Card of the Pole, for example. Other foreigners pay, on average €2,000 a year.
Which certificate do I need for admission?
The university sets the document and the level. The state certificate in Polish as a foreign language is the official proof; we check your programmes' requirements.
How do the lessons work?
Online, one-to-one or in a mini-group. In the first lesson the teacher assesses your level and plans the route to the exam you need. We match you with a native or Russian-speaking teacher to suit your goal and timeline.
