Information about my Courses
Face-to-face classes in Łódź
Face-to-face classes in Łódź may last either 45 minutes or 60 minutes.
In-company classes in Warsaw and Łódź
In-company classes in Łódź and Warsaw may last either 45, 60 or 90 minutes.
Online classes
Please note that online lessons do not last for fixed lengths of time. Instead, students pay for a bundle of prepaid minutes, and a running record is kept which details the number of minutes used. However, I do insist that online classes last for a minimum of 20 minutes. In my view, it’s better to have short but regular classes, i.e. every three or four days, rather than one long lesson per week. Should you wish to have 45, 60 or 90-minute lessons online, please let me know and I will look into it.
Prices
Prices are available upon request. I can assure you that my prices are very competitive.
