My name is Radek and I come from Torun, Poland (the city is famous for gingerbread and Nicholas Copernicus). I graduated in economics. During these studies I went on foreign exchanges to Portugal and Italy. It was then that I became seriously interested in learning foreign languages. Life has taken me on many different paths over the years. After getting my degree, I worked at a management consulting company for 2 years, before realizing that it wasn’t the kind of job that fulfills me. I then studied linguistics in Barcelona. Now I want to share my passion to languages with others.
Ik als leerkracht
I focus on a friendly atmosphere. When teaching I prefer to use examples rather than teach rules. I try to use common sense when correcting mistakes.
In addition to Polish, I speak English, Spanish, Portuguese and Italian. I have also experimented with learning other languages, among them French, German, Romanian, Russian, and even Chinese. Thanks to this experience, I know the problems that adults who want to learn a language struggle with.
Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
At the beginning, I will teach you basic phrases and, using simple dialogues, I will present you the most important words and expressions. You will get used to the sound & logic of the language. Over time, we will move to longer recordings and texts, and start conversations. Classes are based on listening and communicating. Grammar exercises, intensive reading and writing are kept to a minimum.
I use my own lesson plans and authentic multimedia content (articles, films, songs, podcasts). I also use elements of the TPR and TPRS methods and techniques such as associations, cognates, and controlled language.
