    Would anybody like to learn Polish?

    After reading some Irish forums (not only on Boards.ie) about Polish invasion of Ireland I'm a little anxious about replies to my offer:o But I found a forum for Dublin, where people were looking for Polish classes. I wonder if there is any need of it in Cork, because I am a Pole living in this city and I would be very happy to help somebody and use my knowledge as I've done MA in Polish language and literature in Poland.

    That's nice:) And it's not useless. Your post reminds me that I should be prepared to explain polish pronounciation with english sounds. I tried to do it a few times. "Jagshemash" (Jak sie masz) for example. Thanks, Dzieki

    I've seen FAS offering safe pass courses in Polish, in Cork and Dublin.
    I imagine there's plenty of requirement for Polish/English classes in the country.

    I see that evening classes in Polish are now available at Carrigaline Community School.
    I would love to do them as I deal with many Polish people in my business, but alas I do not have the time.
    I install satellite systems and I get a real kick out of bringing expatriate Poles TV from home. They are always very friendly and grateful.

    Hi,

    Definitely seems to be a gap for Polish classes, not just to get to know language skills, but also to get to know the country, its history and culture too.

    I've got a new job and I'm now working with Polish companies, and will be travelling to Poland several times during the year for that reason.

    While the Polish language is very difficult:mad: , it would be good to learn some conversational Polish, useful icebreakers and great for getting to know people, whether business or personal.

    I'm interested in getting intensive one-to-one grinds from a native Polish speaker with teacher training. If any Poles on the list fit this profile or know someone who does, please get in touch..
