Why Ogrody Residents Choose a Native English Speaker
Ogrody is a unique district that blends academic prestige with residential comfort. The massive Ogród Botaniczny provides a green lung for the area, while the UAM Campus brings intellectual energy. Residents in Osiedle Botaniczna and the historic streets like ul. Nowina value quality and authenticity.
That same commitment to quality extends to education. Whether you are an academic at the university, a student aiming for international scholarships, or a professional living in the new developments, you don't just want "good enough" – you want the best. That's why so many in Ogrody choose to work with a genuine native English speaker.
The Native Speaker Advantage
When you learn from a native speaker, you're learning how English speakers actually communicate in Melbourne, London, New York, and Sydney. You're developing authentic pronunciation, understanding idioms, and learning cultural nuances that make the difference between "textbook English" and "native English."
This is particularly valuable for:
- Ogrody Academics & Students: Native-level English is essential for publishing papers, attending conferences, and international collaboration at UAM.
- Ogrody Professionals: For those living in Osiedle Botaniczna and working in international business, understanding cultural context is key to career advancement.
- Exam Preparation: Cambridge, IELTS, TOEFL test real English communication. Native speakers understand exactly what examiners want.
- Moving Abroad: Learning from a native speaker prepares you for real-world English in Australia, UK, US, or Canada.
Local Service Meets International Quality
I serve Ogrody with attention to quality. Whether at your home in Osiedle Botaniczna, meeting at Jadalnia Ogrody, walking through Ogród Botaniczny, or online – you get authentic Australian English with genuine local service.
I know the neighborhood. I know the quiet paths of the Botanic Garden perfect for conversation practice. I know the campus vibe. This local knowledge, combined with native English teaching, makes the difference.

About Brian Stitt - Australian Native Speaker
G'day! I'm Brian from Australia, and I've made Poznań my home. As a native English speaker, I bring authentic Australian English plus British and American variants. My students appreciate that I speak "real" English – what you'll hear in Melbourne, London, or New York, not just textbooks.
Ogrody is one of my frequent teaching areas. There's something special about this district – from the academic atmosphere of the UAM Campus to the natural beauty of Ogród Botaniczny.
Understanding Polish Learners
I understand specific challenges Polish speakers face with English: articles (a/an/the), verb tenses, pronunciation ("th" sound, "v" vs "w"). I've developed strategies to overcome these.
Maximum Flexibility for Ogrody
I meet you where you are. Student or staff at UAM? We can meet nearby. Resident of ul. Nowina? I come to you. Enjoy nature? Let's walk in Ogród Botaniczny. This flexibility is why many Ogrody residents choose to learn with me.

Frequently Asked Questions - Ogrody English Lessons
📍 Do you really come to homes throughout Ogrody?
Yes! I serve the entire Ogrody district. Whether you live near UAM Campus Szamarzewskiego, on ul. Nowina, in Osiedle Botaniczna, around Pętla Ogrody, near Ogród Botaniczny, or anywhere else in Ogrody – I come to you. About 90% of my Ogrody students prefer home lessons because it saves time and is especially convenient for students and academic staff. I bring all materials, and we can start lessons within a week of your first contact.
☕ Which cafés in Ogrody do you recommend for lessons?
Ogrody has some specific spots that are great for lessons. I recommend Jadalnia Ogrody on ul. Szamarzewskiego (right next to the campus) for a casual atmosphere. For more formal or business English lessons, Restauracja Estella (Hotel IOR) nearby is excellent. For a quick coffee meeting, Cukiernia Zagrodnicza near the loop is also an option. We can also meet at any other spot you prefer in Ogrody. Meeting at a café works great for conversational English practice.
🌳 Can we really do lessons while walking in Ogród Botaniczny?
Absolutely! The Ogród Botaniczny (Botanic Garden) is one of the best places in Poznań for walk-and-talk lessons. It is quiet, vast, and beautiful, making it perfect for focused conversation away from city noise. We can meet at the main gate on ul. Dąbrowskiego. This format is very popular from April to October and is fantastic for practicing natural conversation.
💰 What are your prices for Ogrody lessons?
Pricing is transparent and the same regardless of where we meet in Ogrody:
Individual (1-on-1): 120 PLN per hour – fully personalized attention
Pair (2 people): 180 PLN total (90 PLN each per hour) – great for couples, friends, or colleagues
Small Group (3): 210 PLN total (70 PLN each per hour) – dynamic interaction
Group (4+): 60 PLN per person per hour – most economical for teams or families
These rates apply whether I come to your home in Osiedle Botaniczna, we meet at Jadalnia Ogrody, walk through Ogród Botaniczny, you visit my office in Grunwald, or we meet online.
🎯 Why choose a native speaker over a Polish teacher?
As an Australian native speaker, I provide something Polish teachers can't: authentic pronunciation, natural idioms, cultural context, and real-world English as it's actually spoken in Australia, the UK, and the US. When you learn from a native speaker, you develop an ear for correct pronunciation from day one. This matters enormously for Academic English (UAM students/staff), Business English, exam preparation (Cambridge examiners reward natural English), and if you're planning to move abroad.
👨👩👧👦 Do you teach children? What ages?
Yes! I teach children from age 8 and up, teenagers, and adults. For younger children (8-12), lessons are game-based and interactive. For teenagers (13-18), we focus on school support, exam preparation, and building confidence. Having a native speaker work with your children in your Ogrody home means they develop authentic pronunciation from the start. Many parents in Osiedle Botaniczna appreciate the convenience of home lessons.
🕐 How long are lessons and how often should we meet?
Standard lessons are 60 minutes (1 hour), though some students prefer 90-minute sessions for deeper focus. Most students meet once or twice per week – once weekly for maintenance, twice weekly for faster improvement. We can also do intensive courses if you're preparing for an interview or exam. Ogrody students often schedule lessons between university classes or after work.
📅 How flexible is scheduling?
Very flexible! I serve Ogrody throughout the day. If you have a break between classes at UAM, we can meet. If you live in Osiedle Botaniczna, I can come in the evening. Need to reschedule? Just let me know 24 hours in advance. The beauty of mobile service is that I adapt to your schedule.
🌍 As an Australian, can you teach American or British English too?
Absolutely! This is one of my unique strengths. I'm a native Australian English speaker, but I've lived and worked in the US, Europe, and UK. I understand the contextual and cultural nuances between English variants. Whether you need US English for tech/business or UK English for academic contexts (important for many UAM students), I can prepare you for real-world English across all variants.
🎓 What qualifications and experience do you have?
I'm a native English speaker from Australia with years of experience teaching English to Polish students. I specialize in Business English, exam preparation (Cambridge, IELTS, TOEFL), Academic English, and conversation practice. I understand the specific challenges Polish speakers face (articles, tenses, pronunciation). I've worked with everyone from children to university professors.
🆓 Do you offer a free trial lesson?
I offer a free 15-minute consultation – either by phone, video call, or in person at an Ogrody café like Jadalnia Ogrody. This gives us a chance to discuss your goals and see if we're a good fit. It's completely no-pressure.
🚗 What if I prefer to come to your office instead?
You're welcome to! My professional teaching space is at ul. Sierotki Marysi 19 in Grunwald (about 8-12 minutes from Ogrody by car). It has all materials and free parking. However, most Ogrody students prefer I come to them to save commute time.
💻 Are online lessons as effective as in-person?
Online lessons via Zoom or Skype are very effective – same quality, same materials. Many Ogrody students use a hybrid approach – in-person when convenient (home lessons, walks), online when busy.
📚 Do I need to buy textbooks or materials?
No! I provide all materials as part of my lessons. I bring everything we need – business materials, exam prep, conversation prompts. You don't need to buy anything.
❓ What if I'm a complete beginner? Can you teach basics in Polish?
Absolute beginners are welcome! While I teach in English to maximize immersion, I do speak some Polish and can explain difficult concepts when needed. We start with practical, useful English and build from there.
Ready to Start in Ogrody?
Whether preparing for exams, need Business English, want your children to have native-speaker instruction, or simply want to improve – I'm here to help, wherever in Ogrody is convenient.
I respond within 24 hours and can usually start lessons within a week. No pressure, no obligation.
