Are you teaching English in Poland? [120]
OK, I'll answer ur questions in order.
1) Yes, I am
2) In Gliwice, near Katowice
3) I came to Poland to teach, it was full of jobs in 2004
4) U can work with so many schools these days, check the websites
5) There are many language schools in Poland, more and more are popping up
6) Yes, I have a CELTA
7) I use English File, English in Mind and Market Leader, as well as others
8) I didn't get much training as I already had experience and was deemed not to need it
9) It was easy to find work
10) The best schools, hmm, I can't speak for Warsaw or Krakow. Profi-Lingua is one of the bigger schools, I work for them and Britam
11) There are contact addresses online.
12) Ur earnings depend on what u negotiate. 4000PLN maybe. I work for 2 schools and do privates so that changes things
13) U can live a decent life, no problem
14) U can support a family but u have to budget more in that case
15) U could pay a mortgage but I'd advise against it, ur future is far from assured

I've kept my responses short. Please ask for specifics if u want
