szkolaandersa.com - The School of General Anders; you'll find a phone on the website.

thanks, but I can't read a word of it. I need to know if they teach adults, when, etc. Can I email them in English and get a response?

6723 West Devon Ave. Chicago, IL 60631 USA Dyrektor Szkoły - Wanda Penar tel. 847-298-7349 Prezeska - Maria Ciastoń tel. 847-823-1291 ----------- If they teach Polish in Chicago, I assume they understand English and can talk in English. I don't work there so I don't know what they offer, but they surely teach foreigners the Polish language and should be able to answer your questions.

At one time Northern University in DeKalb had Polish classes. Elgin is not that far away from DeKalb. You can check out the university website and see if they still offer Polish classes.

Hi, do you know where I can take Polish classes in Chicago? Tks

Raquel	Dec 12, 06, 16:49 #8
Yes, you are right. I opened the page but I can understand some words only. I guess they should speak English, too, right?

Raquel	Dec 12, 06, 16:53 #9
I have just called them and they don't have bilingual classes, only Polish.

Hey brandy919r, If you are looking for Polish classes in the Chicago burbs, try College of Dupage in Glen Ellyn. Here is a link to their course catalogue: cod.edu/aspcod/Schedule/quarterly_search_by_description.asp Hope that helps! Czarli

I do believe there are some classes held on Saturday somewhere in Palatine. Diane

Lyons Township High School offers it in their adult evening education program. Moraine Valley Community College also offers it in their non-credit program.

Basia: There are many Polish Language Schools in the metro Chicago area....You just need to indicate whether you are looking for schools for adults, teens, or children. I suspect you are looking for adult classes....I have friends who teach Polish at Lyons Township HS and Wright College. There is much mor information I can sent to anyone interested. Dr. C

Just to let you know....this is from experience. I live near Elgin.
Palatine offers bilingual classes. They are pretty good because it is a well established school that has been around for decades. They meet at Palatine High School. Schaumburg/Milosz advertise that they offer bilingual but they do not. There is a school in Wauconda I believe they offer bilingual. The schools are very hard to find because not many kids/people enroll. Other than that, not many places offer the bilingual. There is a program in Lincoln Park/Lakeview called Discovery Center that offers Beginning Polish. Wright College would probably be best for adults.

As far as Dekalb, my sister lives in Dekalb and the polish program there closed down because of lack of enrollment.

Hi my friends, I as well want to take Polish classes. I live off of Austin and Belmont. Does anyone know where I could take them? I made a deal with my Polish buddy...he is going to take classes to speak better English and I figured since I am around Polish guys and girls all the time, I would take Polish classes. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks,

FYI - I just found out that Oakton Community College has Polish I and Polish II classes, and they're starting soon! (oakton.edu)

^^ I just signed up for the class. If you live in-district (which I do) then it is only $84/credit hour = $336. Not bad for a college level foreign language class.
