Lektor Ula A. (Zielonka, Warszawa) język: English
Personal Information
Hi! My name is Ula and I'm from Minneapolis, Minnesota. I've been to Poland many times, fell in love with it, and moved here in 2011. Before I taught English, I had a long line of jobs with dead-ends and jobs with advancment oppurtunities, but I wasn't ever satisfied with them. Since I started earning a living teaching English, I knew that I found something that was a good fit for me. Most of all, I get to continue learning through coversation with students and of course, preparation!
I taught English in the US to highschool students and refugees for over two years. In March of 2011, I came to Poland and immediatly started teaching English. I try to accomodate the student's learning style as much as possible to ensure they reach their goals more efficently. I have worked with students of all levels and abilities ages 4 to adult, levels ranging from A1 to C1, providing lessons and conversation.
