If you have little to no knowledge of Polish, this course is an excellent starting point for your journey into learning the language! "Rusty" beginners—those who have learned some Polish but feel they need revision and practice—are also very welcome to join. If you anticipate that you might find the pace of a beginners course a bit too slow, we recommend exploring our more advanced Polish courses on our website.
On our friendly Polish – Beginners course you will start to learn the basics of this popular language by looking at the following topics.

You will learn greetings, including introducing oneself, friends and family and how to discuss your environment – classrooms, home, and town; likes and dislikes; colours; days of the week; months; and simple time expressions.

You will also learn to become proficient in Grammar; Polish Alphabet/Vowels and consonants in Polish; Pronunciation; Personal Pronouns; Gender; Negation, questions and word order; cardinal and ordinary numbers; and parts of speech.

Fee information
A text book is used to accompany the course but it is optional to buy this (average cost £20 - £25). The text book will support your learning for at least 1 year. You may also like to buy a small dictionary. Your tutor will be able to advise you at the first session.

As part of your course we may organise trips to assist you with your learning. Trips are optional, and you will not be penalised if you choose not to participate.

There are bursaries available to help you with other course costs. Call 01235 216 212 for more information.
