- The courses are fully adapted to the students' needs.
- The people in a group keep each other going, help one another, learn from each other's experience and make friends.
- A group course consists of 70 teaching units and runs for about four and a half months, with classes twice a week (2×45 min. per session).
- Levels A1–C2, in line with the CEFROur courses cover every level of Polish – from A1 to C2. Each level can be split into two stages, .1 and .2, which lets us match the pace and the scope of the course to what the students can already do.A1.1 → A1.2 → A2.1 → A2.2 → B1.1 → B1.2 → B2.1 → B2.2 → C1.1 → C1.2 → C2.1 → C2.2A1–C2 are the official CEFR levels; .1 and .2 are how the school organises them and not separate CEFR levels. Because the Slavic languages resemble one another, Slavic speakers can move up a level faster.
- Optional: the course can be extended with language walks (walk & talk), language workshops, films and specialist knowledge about Polish culture and history.
How long does it take to reach the next level?
As a rough guide, moving up one level takes about 50-60 clock hours for somebody who already speaks a Slavic language, and about 100-120 clock hours for somebody whose first language is not Slavic.
These are guides, not promises – how fast it goes also depends on your own aptitude, on how regular the lessons are, and on how much you put into them.
