She teaches English
and understands people.

Ana holds a degree in psychology, earned in an English-language program. She has a Cambridge C1 certificate, and regular trips to the United States have helped her develop a natural American accent.

She has sharpened her skills through programs such as Summer College at Lasell College in Boston and a course at Rennert Bilingual in New York. At the studio, she’s in charge of foundations, phonetics, grammar, schoolwork, and preparation for exams, competitions, and academic olympiads.

Fluent English opened the door to work on international teams, including for UEFA during EURO 2012. She shows her students that a language is a passport to big projects and to discovering the world.

Native speaker · Boston / Key West

Living language.
Real conversation.

Johnny is an American with European roots. Born in Boston and raised in Key West, he brings natural English and a broad cultural perspective to every lesson.

He has experience working with children, teens, and adults. Through conversation, he helps students break down communication barriers, and his warm, calm style gives them a safe space to build confidence.

He’s a car enthusiast who brought his beloved car with him to Poland. He’s happy to talk about history, cars, current events, and whatever the student is into — any topic goes.

Equal opportunities

We also work with students who need extra support, including students with ADHD, Asperger’s, or difficulty concentrating.
