ASAP is a very generic term.

Quickly is possible if you care to speak a few words without the ability to have a coherent conversation. Of course your mileage may vary but to speak somewhat OK it will take at least months.

I don't mean to discourage you but the language is among the hardest in the World.

For now I'd concentrate on a few canned phrases and expressions. I'm sure the effort will be appreciated but don't expect to understand their replies. Then take it from there.

Good luck.

It's difficult to learn one of the most difficult languages in the world quickly.

But start with basic phrases and expressions. So you can greet the people you're going to visit in PL. Then sign up for a course, get a book+CD, and try to talk to Polish people more and more. Probably your BF can help you with that more and more as you progress. The best way to learn Polish is (of course) to be in Poland and interact with Poles.

I can guarantee that it's not impossible to learn, but it's a lot of hard work and it takes time.

Good Luck!

it is really hard to learn without teacher, the best option for you is probably, going to " polish for foreigners" school.

You need to learn Polish quickly and efficiently? Hm, I like to teach this way.

If you do not mind I would offer my service to you.

I am a professional Polish teacher. I live in Krakow in Poland but I teach learners from all over the world via Skype

Please visit my website polishviaskype.com

I invented unique an successful method to teach Polish online. I offer a 45-minute free Polish trial lesson to present it.
During lesson we do not use any camera. I believe my exercises (in writing and speaking) are more efficient then looking at my not really handsome face (-:

If you decide to cooperate with my you will never pay in advance. The rule is clear: First the lesson, then the payment. I offer a few save and comfortable payment forms.

You can order as many lesson as you wish (you can give up it when you wish)
You do not take any financial risk.
You get professional teaching service directly from Poland wherever you live.
You get individual tutoring for reasonable price.

So why not to test me and my method. There is nothing to lose and much to win (-:

I will send prices to you via email.

Hello(Cześc-Cheshch)
Find a Polish Home Association or so, you may want to look it up on the web. Find out what hours they are open and go for it! People are people they will be very happy to help you!!!
I am Polish and when I came to America American people were more than happy to help me, so it is with my nation. Good luck and be bold!

I know many people like rosetta stone. You can find a bit torrent of it for free.

You can down load byki for free at their website byki.com.

Get a good phrase book.

Its not an easy language. I have been working on it for almost 3 years and it's just now starting to make sense.

The easy thing about Polish is that the pronunciation is much more consistant then English.

No you don't need to learn Polish. Just be yourself, Polish people are great, they will know if you are trying to be someone else. They want you to be just the way you are, nothing else.

The best way is immerse yourself in Polish. Stop speaking in English and just go for it. Try to memorize a few phrases from phrase books, and I recommend getting "Polish in 4 weeks". Although it's likely impossible to really learn Polish in four weeks, it's the best book I've found for explaining grammar of Polish. Use this book, plus some phrase books and try to only speak Polish. You'll find people in Poland are generally willing to help you learn, as long as you're not holding up the line somewhere. :)
