Tinga 1 | 1 13 Mar 2014 #1Hi all, I'm a native English speaker who has been studying Polish for over two years. I recently moved to Reading from further north and have struggled to find many Polish people or Polish-speaking people to meet with. I would love to join some sort of group or group classes to continue my studies as I am slowly losing my ability to speak Polish! Does anybody know anywhere I can go, or is anyone interested in holding classes or meetings? We could teach each other our native languages (I know there are a few non-English Polish speakers in the area). It seems a shame as I made so many Polish friends in the north, and now I'm finding it hard to converse with anyone.Thanks.

BuckeyeInPoland 18 Feb 2022 #7I also love Duolingo. I have reached about a B2 level in Polish, and it's mostly just from using Duo every day.I also do weekly conversions online via Preply. I can send a referral link if you want a discount to try a lesson on there. There are quite a few Polish Language tutors on that platform.
Lyzko 42 | 9,083 18 Feb 2022 #8Indeed there are, BuckeyeInPoland, indeed there are!Reading knowledge of any language is to my mind the third phase in the traditional four-skill process: listening, speaking, READING, and writing:-)As I suggested to the person who originated the current thread, joining a beginner's book club, either virtual or face-to-face, can also be a valuable tool in acquiring reading knowledge in the target language.
