Work / The qualifications for teachers in Poland? [101]

Hi,

does any of you know what are the qualifications for teachers in Poland?

I have an undergrad degree in Canada, and hoping to start teacher's college in Ontario.

What specific training do you need in Poland beside getting an undergrad? I have a Psych degree here. I am hoping to work with deaf/hard of hearing children.

Any information would be great!

Thanks!

Work / The qualifications for teachers in Poland? [101]

Thanks :)

Do I need to get a master degree in Poland? or can I just get it here - in Canada?

pedagogy would be translated as "education"? sorry I'm not all familiar with that word.

I might as well get a master degree in education. that would be the samething? I hope so!

Language / (part 2) Polish Language Pronunciation - Sample Words and Phrases [311]

Merged:How would you pronounce the name "Lila"?

Hi,

I am trying to figure out; how would a Polish person pronounce the name "Lila"?

In English; Lila would be: "Lie-la"

I want something in Polish that will sound like "Lie-la" how would you spell it in Polish way for "Lie-la"? so that my Polish relatives can pronounce the name as in "Lie-la" not "Lee-la"

Thanks! =)

Life / Looking for a Polish hiphop artist... [19]

I know this may be impossible...but I will give a shot here.

A few years ago; a friend of mine send me a music video of a hiphop video...in the video the artist is bald, age I would say in his 30's; he was walking down the streets (a sunny day)...the music started with a nice whistling sound ...I fell in love with the music (the whistling sound was great)...it wasn't a fast rap but a slow kinda rap with a slow nice beats, whistling background...anyone would know the name of the artist? video?...I have been trying to search all over...:( I don't remember the name...(I wished that I have wrote the name down but I had to reformat my computer forgetting to save my music :(() any names you may think would be of this artist or the song?

Thanks!!!! :)))

Life / Looking for a Polish hiphop artist... [19]

yeah hahah :)) I know it is pretty impossible! but I am at my dead end trying to find this song or video even. So I'm desperate! :P

I don't remember the lyrics...:(( I just remember the lyrics has closely relating about the day in the country, about the country you're living in it...the guy is rapping walking through the streets on a sunny day showing people on streets enjoying the day, a video go back to his studio (him recording the song), it is a nice slow rap video :))

ah! I don't think I will ever find this song :(( I've been looking through all over...I guess I should just give it up...:'(

I'm not sure if that is him =// the guy is bald in the video (he isn't slim more like built, big guy I would say)...he wore a track pant in the video...casual sporty like...

names would help! maybe he grew his hair now? not sure...so any names would be helpful :)) thnks!! I'm trying to give it a shot here...

but what is the guy's name in the pic?

Yes he is pretty good looking ;) he remind me of this other Polish rapper (the guy from "FU") I thought he was hot and his music was pretty good too :D too bad I don't hear him much anymore :(

you can find jeden osiem l on myspace with all their released music videos available ... myspace.com/jedenosiemlmusic is the link taken via my friends list on there :)

Love / Confused English man: is she stringing me along or is she confused? [62]

3 years is pretty long; I mean I can understand maybe she thought "something else" or maybe has other issues but she can't just play along with another person's feelings...you know?? this isn't just about "her". What I am trying to say; she led him believe into something...now just dreading on? or whatever she's doing now? doesn't look good to me; pretty immature on her side =/ she should be honest; be a grown up...realized she may be hurting another person here..she can't play his feelings (this guy is confused; phoning her for 3 yrs, came to Poland just for her...how much can a guy seriously do? wait longer? at least some honesty would be a nice gesture on her part)...I'm not really liking it...she need to be more mature on that part...I don't know...

Love / Will he have an affair with me? [17]

Shall I wait or make another move? I do not want to scare him. Thanks !

Are you crazy?? Do you seriously want to "break up" someone else's marriage? I hope this isn't for real...because I would find it absurd & disgusting...

I just don't get women or even men like these...what are they thinking?? don't they think of their family? their children? (of course not; because they're only thinking of their own needs without even caring for hurting others)...please stay away...I still can't believe people would do something like this...just outrageous to even think of doing something like this...

even if you say this might be "his decision"...please use your own brain here instead...be someone smarter here & at least use your heart...as fishstick posted: "...Don't break up happy homes..."

Life / The nations Poles don't like (stats) [55]

You should try reading the history behind these "reasons" :)) I know I was a bit surprised too. I know some Ukrainians in Canada don't like us. They say Poles controlled Ukrainians (back in like the King's day in Poland). Which I don't get it fully because at that time Russians wanted to take over Ukraine...The Polish King at that time; said ok you can join us but just follow our rules...Ukraine joined Poland (but not to be a part of Poland) just the Polish King ruling over them too; so that Russia doesn't take over the country Ukraine. They felt more safe with Poland at that time (Poland was powerful).

So I guess not everybody were happy being under control of the Polish King.

During the Great World War; Ukraine were with Russia (part of Red Army?) they helped them; killing Poles. I know this because one of my grandfather's brother's whole family were killed by Ukrainians during the war....so I would assume the # of these Poles still don't like them because of that history.

and that's your fault you see because you were directly involved and they definitely suffered as a direct result of your actions.

Gosh it's sad and pathetic what people come out with to justify their feelings- something quick and easy that doesn't take too much honesty or thought.

I think you meant to "quote" me :)

I am confused by what you are trying to say here? that it's my fault?? Could you be more clear here? if you don't mind, thanks..

Language / My reading and writing is awful - POLISH IS HARD TO LEARN [13]

Spelling would be my weakness :( (another thing it is hard-er for me because I lost some hearing (from an illness) as a child; so...I would have a hard time hearing the soft words like s, sz, ...etc. Polish was my first language before coming to Canada when I was about 6.

I can read...I just need more practice on writing with tricky letters that I can't always hear well (that would be my main concern).

Kasia84 well what do you think I meant?

Well to be honest; I'm not sure 100% on what you're really indicating on here...?? All I asked you if could please re-explain to me on what you meant; is just wasn’t clear for me. Sorry =//

I am not judging anybody here; I am stating what I’ve seen here and heard from others (the Ukrainians themselves too). I, personally, could not care less! =P I get along with everybody else easily....Ukrainians or not lol :))

...but again could you please enlighten me here? On what exactly you were trying to say?

Life / Polish Train Travel - Scary? [101]

yes be careful; my gran was robbed like 3 times =// I feel much safer travelling the trains in Canada. I've never been robbed here; we leave our car doors unlocked, garage usually unlocked, some time our house is unlocked =P we never encountered a robbery here...just different here :)

every time I leave to Polska I worry about them robbing me :P hehe but despite that I still love going there :D is just different. I love travelling in trains in Poland (haven't been robbed yet well maybe because I didn't travel alone? don't know?) :) I like to watch the green land passing by :)) it is so pretty!

Food / Polish food is making me fat [49]

This thread is making me so hungry. We have an aisle of Polish food at my local supermarket. (Pasta with strawberry sauce hey haven't heard of that one before?!)The only problem is this requires someone to cook it and being a microwave queen to me that's like finding a cure for cancer...

All you need is sour cream, fresh mashed strawberries, sugar...mixed it well (if you have an electrical mixture...would be helpful :))

You can have it will noodles or some time I have rice instead
