Students looking for an English tutor in Poland
I need an English tutor
Tell us the level, the goal and roughly when you are free. The request goes up without your name or contact details on it, and tutors reply through us, so you are not publishing your email to the open web.
I teach English
List yourself and answer requests as they come in. Listing is free while the board is being built, and you decide what of your profile is public.
This side of the board is new, so there is nothing to show yet in Poland. Everything here is posted by real people who asked to be listed: we do not copy tutor profiles from other sites, so it starts empty rather than starting fake.
How tuition requests work in Poland
- A student or parent posts what they need. Level, goal, whether they want lessons online or in person, and roughly what they can pay.
- We publish it anonymously. The listing shows the level, the area and the kind of lessons wanted. It does not show a name, an email, a phone number or an address, and a request from a parent about a child says so without identifying the child.
- Tutors reply through the board. The reply reaches the person who posted; their address is never handed out, and they choose whether to answer.
What we will not do
We do not copy tutor profiles or student enquiries from other sites. Every person listed here asked to be. That means this side of the board fills up more slowly than one built from scraped profiles, and it means nobody finds themselves advertised here without having agreed to it.
Paying a tutor
Rates vary far too much by country, level and whether lessons are online to quote a figure honestly, and we would rather say so than invent a range. Agree the rate, the cancellation terms and how you will pay before the first lesson, and be wary of anyone asking for a large block of lessons up front.

Private English tuition in Poland sits alongside a large, well-established language school sector, and the two serve different people. Schools take the group classes and the corporate contracts; private tutors get the work that does not fit a timetable, which in practice means exam candidates, professionals preparing for an interview or a move abroad, and children whose parents want help with school English.
Three things shape demand here. The school year runs from September to late June, and requests for help with school English cluster around the start of term and again before the matura in May. Business English is the steadiest adult segment, concentrated in Warsaw, Krakow, Wroclaw and the Tricity, where the international services sector is. And online tuition is completely normal: a tutor in Gdansk teaching a student in Rzeszow is unremarkable, so being outside a big city is much less limiting than it used to be.
On money, the figures we have come from researching live job adverts and TEFL providers in November 2026 rather than from tutors themselves: private lessons were being advertised around 80 to 150 zloty an hour, against 40 to 90 for classroom work at a language school. Treat those as the shape of the market, not a quote. What a particular tutor can charge depends on the level, whether it is exam work, and whether they are travelling to the student.
One practical note for anyone arranging lessons here: most private tuition is informal, and if you want an invoice, say so at the start. A tutor working through a dzialalnosc gospodarcza can issue one; a student teaching on the side usually cannot.

Common questions
Do tutors in Poland need to speak Polish?
For adult learners, generally no, and many prefer a tutor who does not, because it forces them to work in English. For younger children and for absolute beginners it helps a great deal, and some parents will ask for it directly. The bigger practical use of Polish is everything around the lesson: agreeing times with a parent, finding the flat, sorting out a missed session.
What are Polish students usually preparing for?
At school age, the eighth-grade exam and then the matura, where English is compulsory. Adults are most often working towards a job requirement, a relocation, or a Cambridge certificate; IELTS appears mainly where someone is applying to study or move to an English-speaking country. Knowing which of those a student is in changes the lessons completely, so it is the first thing worth asking.
Is it better to teach online or in person here?
Online is the default for adults and has been for years. In-person still wins for young children, for anyone whose motivation depends on turning up somewhere, and for the premium end of business English where the client wants someone in the building. If you are in Warsaw or Krakow, in-person work is there; outside the big cities, expect most of it to be online.
How do people usually pay for tuition in Poland?
Bank transfer after the lesson or at the end of the month is normal, and BLIK is widely used for one-off payments. Prepaid blocks of lessons happen but are worth being careful with on both sides: agree in writing what happens to unused lessons and how much notice a cancellation needs, before any money moves.
