The person behind Parlingua
A passion for language. A commitment to your progress.
Hello, I’m Hanna
I’m Hanna, a qualified language teacher with a love of helping people connect through language. I teach French and Polish to adults and young people, adapting every lesson to the learner in front of me.
My own experience of learning and using languages showed me how much confidence, curiosity and opportunity they can bring. That’s what I want to share with every student I work with.
Whether you’re starting from scratch, preparing for an exam or looking to feel more natural in conversation, I’ll help you make steady progress in a supportive, encouraging way.
My approach to teaching
You lead, I guide
Every lesson starts with your goals. I listen, adapt and build a programme that works the way your mind works — not a textbook’s.
Real language for real life
I focus on the language you’ll actually use: conversations, culture, professional contexts, and the subtle things that make you sound genuinely fluent.
Patience and positivity
Language learning takes time. I create a space where making mistakes is part of the process — not something to be embarrassed about.
