A little bit about me

Hi, I’m Karolina, and I’ve been teaching ESL for over 26 years. Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of helping countless teachers and students thrive in the classroom. I’m passionate about creating practical, engaging resources that make a real difference in how we teach and learn English.

My materials delve into real-world topics that genuinely matter to students, sparking inspiration, fostering engagement, and creating a space where their voices are truly heard. By addressing issues that resonate with them, these resources encourage meaningful discussions and authentic connections.

I understand the challenges ESL teachers face, which is why I design resources that are not only easy to use and effective, but also relevant and thought-provoking. My goal is to help you elevate your lessons, make your teaching experience more enjoyable, and inspire your students to succeed!

What students are saying...

After knowing and working with Karolina for more than 5 years, she’s rather a dear family friend than just a teacher. Thanks to her passion for the language, huge experience, immense creativity and endless care, both of my kids speak English as natives. And even me, a 40+ Russian-native, born in the ex-USSR which has never been taught proper English and never believed he'd be able to communicate in it freely, not only has a decent vocabulary and capable of discussing virtually any topic, but also succeeded in overcoming his deep inborn fears of speaking a foreign language. Which is not trivial at all.

Bottom line: if you need a teacher who's capable of teaching you English individually, creatively building your personal fine-tuned curriculum, constantly pushing you forward and yet a caring, warm person who immediately builds rapport with each and every person (whatever age they are and whatever background they come from) - Karolina is your best choice!

Our son started online lessons with Karolina when he was ten. Being a covid-school child he refuses to learn online. The only exception is studying with Karolina. They started from very basic - he barely knew letters and couldn't speak. Now he is one of the advanced students in his class. Karolina knows how to make their lessons interesting, funny and valuable. She is an excellent teacher being able to adopt the learning process to the student. And she really loves her students and English language. We all are being very very lucky having her as a teacher.

Karolina is a really good English teacher on Skype. She makes our online classes fun and I never get bored. She always helps me when I'm stuck and gives good tips on my homework. Her classes have helped me get better at English.
