sorry Dominic, but that is dreadful advice. Hanging up on someone means that immediately you have put yourself on the back foot.
Much better to say something like 'I am going to end this call now, do call me if you have a more sensible suggestion. Goodbye, bye'.

Temporary, are you Indian? I imagine you would get more stares, but then so do all foreigners.

I suppose anyone who writes,

" Its twice this has happens to some of the single girls going out meeting guy, someone buy them a drink and few minutes someone passes out!"

would be rightly wary of attempting to teach English for a living.

that kind of thing has happened in the UK too.
Tell your wife that if she goes out, to buy a bottle of beer and keep it with her, with her thumb over the top, even if she goes to the loo.

Sadly I had to tell my kids that too when they became teens.

while Dominic does speak some down to earth sense Littlegirl, do not be put off altogether.
What he said about contributing to the household is spot on - you do not want a Polish MIL slagging you off at every opportunity. And she will if she gets half a chance.

You might find work in a summer school, keep looking at TEFL.com
Also how is your Polish?

Life / Multiracial Poles [154]

I meant if someone wants to self identify as eg Irish, English, Polish, it is up to them, no matter where they live or where their parents are from.

It is intensely personal.

They dropped his name because nobody can say it here. so what?
