Summer School of Polish in Lodz

A summer language course is a perfect investment. It enables the learner to learn the language in its mother country. It is a great opportunity to be in constant touch. You will be able to combine spending a fantastic vacation time with learning at our school. What is more, the teaching process takes place in international groups which helps meet interesting people from around the world and to meet new people. Our teachers aim to create a relaxed and fun learning environment that encourages student interaction whilst ensuring organized and focused lessons. During Summer School we organize different events throughout the week, such as cooking lessons, dancing lessons, movies, local tours, Aquapark, and other outdoor activities. This unique and innovative program, the first of its kind in Łódź, gives students the opportunity to learn and practice Polish while exploring Łódź.
