Three years later she won an honourable mention at the National Vocal Competition for secondary school students in Wrocław. At present (1999) she is a student at Boźena Harasimowicz-Hass at the Academy of Music in Gdańsk. She has taken part in the courses of vocal interpretation in Duszniki-Zdrój (1994, 1997) where she worked with Gerard Kahra, Delfina Ambroziak and Zofia Janukowicz-Pobłocka. In 1998 she took part in the master-classes given by Fedora Barbieri in Gdańsk (honorary diploma of participation). She also perfected her skills at an international course given by Siegfried Lorenz in Rostock. She has won a special award for the interpretation of Moniuszko Songs at the National Student Vocal Competition in Duszniki-Zdrój.
