Polish for Life & Studies – level A2

Opis

Polish for Life & Studies  course  (A2 level) is designed for everyone eager to speak and understand Polish, regardless of their background or residency.

The topics have been selected so that each lesson is useful in specific life situations. We hope that this course will not only help in many everyday situations but also allow you to discover the most interesting aspects of Poland and its people.

The Polish language course consists of 30 carefully selected thematic lessons (situations from life in Polish) for self-study.

Each lesson consists, on average, of 30 screens.

All lessons are available in translation into the English. It is worth increasing the effectiveness of your study: on some screens, there is the option to turn on/off the translation so that after familiarizing yourself with vocabulary and structures, you can understand the text or individual words on your own.

Each lesson is dedicated to a specific topic presented in real-life situations. The initial screens introduce new words in a friendly manner, while the following ones show structures where these words are most commonly used, so that the “learner” can quickly apply new knowledge in practice. The next step includes dialogues and texts about specific situations, introducing new characters. Finally, the necessary grammatical rules are provided.

Between these parts, various engaging exercises are placed. Each portion of material contains a minimum of theory and a lot of practice, increasing the efficiency of learning. The lectures conclude with reinforcement and repetition.

Vocabulary and grammar tables are available on instructional screens.

Your guides will be Pol and Pola, providing instructions, household comments, or additional explanations.
