Cultural Polish for Beginners
Is a museum a good place to learn a language? Of course! There is no language without culture and no culture without language.
In mid-September we are starting classes for learning Polish language through heritage. Museum exhibits will become an inspiration to develop communicative competences. We focus on exchange of ideas, learning from each other, openness to other cultures. Above all, we practice the ability to listen and speak in Polish in authentic, real-life situations. You are welcome!
Intercultural game Sabir at the temporary exhibition about Warsaw cuisine
During this meeting we will visit the exhibition about Warsaw Cuisine and talk about cultural differences that manifest themselves through food preparation, customs and traditions around the table. We will check what unites us and what makes us different. Maybe we will learn new things about each other?
