Kasia and Marco are very warm, welcoming and it is a pleasure working with them. The schedule is not too demanding and the lessons are easy and simple to implement. I enjoyed my time in Grodzisk Mazowiecki and was also able to spend time in Warsaw. Both homes are nicely equipped with whatever you may need. I enjoyed my stay so much that I have decided to extend it past the original date! I would absolutely recommend this volunteer experience for anyone interested in visiting Poland!

I had a really great experience volunteering here! Kaza and Marko are very kind, attentive, and welcoming. The schedules are respected, so you have plenty of free time to explore and enjoy Warsaw. Working with the children was such a lovely experience, and I really enjoyed my time here. I would definitely come back and highly recommend this volunteer opportunity. It was a great experience overall! :)

An amazing experience! I had the best time ever with Kasia and the "the organization Holmes - Meet the organization" team. My experience was mostly participating in a summer camp with kids from a local school, helping them practice their English. I didn't actually teach with a textbook, it was mostly making the kids feel comfortable to practice talking. The kids are fun and the school is beautiful. Kasia and the organizing team made me feel welcome and were so accommodating and flexible, I had a lot of time to explore Warsaw! I also had online conversation practice with adults, also great! 10/10 🩷

I was curious about teaching English and wanted to meet Polish folks while I was in the country--this was a great way to do both! The role is as described, so read the description (and add'l info provided later) well. Kasia was an energetic & communicative host, and we worked together through a couple of needed shifts that emerged. As she states, flexibility is important! I enjoyed working with a range of student ages, levels, & interests.
The house and my room were more than adequate, and I enjoyed the overall house vibes. The Warsaw location is lovely. I truly recommend & hope to return!

I had a great experience volunteering in Poland through Worldpackers. I enjoyed teaching English to different age groups, visiting schools to teach, and even going horse riding, which made it very memorable.
Kasha was an amazing host—welcoming, kind, and supportive throughout my stay.
If I wasn’t in the military, I would 100% go back. I’d highly recommend this experience to anyone looking to volunteer, travel, and make an impact.

I enjoyed my time at the organization Holmes. My biggest complaint would be that we only received our schedule the day before, so it was hard to plan our free time during the week. Katarzyna (and her daughter) could appear a little disorganized at times, which could be difficult to navigate around, especially concerning something important or time-sensitive. Overall, though, I had a lot of fun talking with students and the other tutors.

As explained at arrival, schedules are shared day by day due to frequent last-minute changes and cancellations.
We’re also glad you had plenty of free time to explore Warsaw and Poland while staying in one of the city’s best districts.

They were kind to pick me up from the train station and taking me to the grocery store. The other people in the house were nice and kind, overall I felt comfortable and safe. The work hours are good and the host is super kind and always replies fast, the house is in a good location with easy access to public transport. I would recommend if you wanna connect with locals and help them improve their english, along with improving your polish.

I really enjoyed my time here. The work is straight forward and hours are flexible. It is really nice meeting local Polish people and talking with them. Katarzyna is also a lovely host and made me feel very comfortable. The home and living environment is very nice and I felt welcome living there. Overall my experience was fantastic and I would come back if I got the chance.

My experience here has been lovely! I couldn't ask for a better host/boss, and the other volunteers are just awesome. I would recommend this experience if you prefer a slow-paced lifestyle and enjoy having great conversations with all ages.
