EbonyandBathory 5 | 249 29 Feb 2008 / #1I live in LA and want to learn Polish. I have CDs and books and know a little but have no idea if I'm pronouncing things correctly. Learning languages on your own is so difficult and I'm looking for a tutor in the Los Angeles area to help me out. Any suggestions?
beckski 12 | 1609 29 Feb 2008 / #2Check out the bulletin board, located outside Our Lady of the Bright Mount Polish Church.The church is on Adams Blvd. in Los Angeles. You'll find advertisements of all kinds there.
RJ_cdn - | 267 29 Feb 2008 / #3have no idea if I'm pronouncing things correctly.In the meantime you can use this IvoSoftware.
Tom from CA 1 Mar 2008 / #4Try Rosetta Stone software. It has a sound analyzer which compares your pronunciation to a native speakers, it is an all around winner.
OP EbonyandBathory 5 | 249 1 Mar 2008 / #5Thanks, Tom. I've looked into Rosetta Stone, but it's so expensive. I guess you've got to spend money to learn a different language, though. Thanks everyone for your advice. beckski, I go to that church, so I'll have to look at the bulletin board, thanks.
phillygirl 1 | 1 27 Mar 2008 / #6i am polish and will be moving to LA in June, I could teach you Polish if u r still interested. tell me what are your needs as to a language like you want to speak for travelling, business or just for fun? do you speak any Polish already?
OP EbonyandBathory 5 | 249 27 Mar 2008 / #7phillygirl, I'd like to learn Polish for fun. When my grandmother moves on, no one in my family will be able to speak Polish and this would be a shame, I'd like to remedy that. I speak a little Polish, but I mean just a little. I know hello, goodbye, I'd like something to drink/eat, where is ______ street? Please, thank you. Just very basic stuff. I can't read or write any of it. I'd love to meet with you. I'm a fast learner and I could pay you. We'll have to keep in touch until June.

stumaniac - | 5 17 Aug 2010 / #13I tried both of the links in the last two messages, one was no good, and the second had no Polish tutors listed. I am looking for a Polish tutor via Skype. Any suggestions? I can probably afford about $15/hr.
