Hello there. I was asked to be giving Polish lessons for money but I've got no idea how much can I ask them to pay me! Any advice? I'm not a qualified teacher but a native Polish language speaker. Thanks!
Hey there Wyspi, you can get as much as 25 pounds an hour but the hours may be few and far between. My fiancee got 20 pounds in hand, not bad at all. It's good to couple this with another job as many people do.
$30 Quoted on the above site. I think it depends on if the lessons are in person or over the internet and if you will supply homework and learning materials etc.
You are welcome. She got that in Peterborough. No doubt, some people will try to drive down the wages due to the financial crisis. Still, make your case for more. Polish is becoming more sought after. Still, I'd do some practising first as Polish isn't the easiest language to explain to people, especially novices.
That's what I am secretly afraid of Seanus. You got any advices? Also, could you please recommend any sites with materials which might be useful? Thanks!
Do I have any advice? Hmm...English is more my forte. Truth be told, I think your judgement, coupled with your natural knowledge of Polish, puts you in a better position to select good websites.
I'm not quite at that level of Polish where I can evaluate websites. Trust your instinct, Wyspi :)
How you doing? I've been learning Polish 11/2 hr a week for the past 2 years (still some way to go). My lessons take place in London, but during the week I live near Peterborough and have sought to have a few extra lessons as 11/2 hrs a week isn't enough. For a while Peterborough Adult College had a course on , but this died a death after a while. Then I had some private lessons at £15 per hr which was quite reasonable. The best books I have seen or used are the ones I use for my course in London 'Hurrah' (they started using them at the Peterborough College). I have even studied at the school that produces these books in Krakow, which I must say produced better results in 2 weeks than I achieved in 8 months studying in the UK.
Anyway, to find out more about these books google 'Prolog Krakow'. They have student and teacher books. If I were you I wouldn't ask for much over £15 per hour if you want long term custom as it all mounts up over time - not wanting to detract from what you're providing.
Thank you David. The thing is, a person who I was reffering to was rather more interested in me than lessons. As soon as he found out I'm not into dates and I'm in a relationship, he suddenly changed his mind about how much he actually wants to study Polish..

Hi! I am offering English lessons as a native speaker for 30 pl. for 2 hourly sessions!
People have mentioned different prices, £15, £20 and £25 so maybe go for a special offer 3 lessons for £50 and then £20 a lesson after that. Sometimes you have to dangle a carrot for the first clients to bite.
