Hi Patryk,
Forst you need to work on getting the right contact on the ball. A brushing contact will get you to generate spin. To be able to get the brushing contact think about just touching the outside of the ball. Like there is an ant on the ball that you are trying to brush off without hitting the ball.
Take a look at our lessons on Serving Secrets. This will guide you in the right direction.
