UK, Ireland / I'm going to a Polish New Years Eve Party in England, help?! [12]

Hi everyone,
My family are Polish but I was never really taught Polish as I was growing up so I cant speak that much Polish, alothough Iam learning it at the moment :)

Anyway, here in England, I have a few Polish friends and one of them has invited me to a new years eve party at his friends house. Everyone there is going to be Polish and from Poland so they will all be native Polish speakers. Iam getting very anxious now as I only really know him (my friend) and nobody else. Also, everyone will be talking Polish and I will feel like I'm annoying everyone because they will have to talk to me in English. I will of course, try and use my polish as much as possible, but it would only be little phrases like please and thank you or hello. How do I fit in more? Even though Iam one of them technically, I fear I will feel like a outsider :(

UK, Ireland / Does anyone know of any Polish Tutors teaching in the Berkshire, England area? [6]

Cześć! :)
I was never taught Polish as a child even though my Dad is Polish... But I really want to learn the language. And I know it is very difficult but Iam very willing to learn! I know some Polish but would really like to learn it at GCSE/A Level, level. I live in Reading, Berkshire. Iam willing to travel within the Berkshire area for my lessons. Does anyone know anyone who teaches in the Berkshire area? Thanks :)
