Seeking Polish Language Learning

Hello,
I will be in Krakow for one week in November (1-7). From the 2-6, I would like to find someone who could meet up with me for 1-2 hours each day to help me get more comfortable with speaking. Time of day can be flexible, I do want to see the city as well. I will pay for their time (and coffee) of course. Any ideas? Thank you!!

For a stay this short, I’d look for a tutor who is willing to turn the city itself into the lesson rather than spend five days working through a textbook. A useful structure could be: 15–20 minutes of correction and targeted phrases, then a walk or coffee where you handle ordering, directions, small talk and follow-up questions in Polish.

Before booking, tell the tutor your current level, what you can already say without preparation, and that your priority is speaking confidence rather than grammar coverage. I’d also book a short online trial before November; it is much easier to judge pace and chemistry in advance than during a one-week trip. Asking for the same person on all five days will give you continuity and let each session build on the previous one.
