Work / Native English speaker looking to teach English in the Opole area of Poland. [29]

nobody learns English because the UK (yes, the UK, not 'England') is/was in the EU.
They learn it because of America.

And OP, please don't think that people will go mad for a 'native' speaker from the UK, they would rather learn American tbh, on the whole. Also people learn online, or from emigrating temporarily, or from TV and friends, from Skype - a 'native' speaker is almost superfluous these days.

Life / Is time on Poland's side? Unsustainable future. [21]

all this infantile bickering gets in the way of an adult, on points, conversation

only an old English teacher would even talk like that...:) Just saying.
The 'long' words, the belittlement..

In Canada, May 21 signifies a statutory holiday: "Victoria Day", in honour of the Queen of Englands' Mother.

QV died in 1901.
QE was born in 1926.
Do the math.

UK, Ireland / No Poles Allowed! - Latest Polonophobic Outrage Out of Britain [660]

the anti-polish sentiment has largely faded and today it is a fraction of what it was the 2 waves before

right thank you, so why are you still banging on about it? Unless you wish to fan the flames ?
Any situation where over a million people arrive from one country into another, is going to raise issues isnt it?

many brits and british media just lump us with the rest of the 'east European invader' pile.

and 'many' dont.

And no, you didnt see those headlines, you made them up.

UK, Ireland / No Poles Allowed! - Latest Polonophobic Outrage Out of Britain [660]

The most they had against the Poles was that they ripped off the benefits system and committed fraud and some burglaries

that is not even true tbh. It was the swans...:D

Listen Polish are 'top of the pile' , above Romanians , Bulgarians, Albanians, Moldovans and goodness knows who else etc. Stop being so egotistical about it.

UK, Ireland / No Poles Allowed! - Latest Polonophobic Outrage Out of Britain [660]

What bothers me is that there was so much anti-Polish sentiment in the British press

everyone goes on about that, but i dont see it. Other than a link to the Daily Mule of 7 years ago, could you provide any links?

Work / Diary of a Teacher in Poland [181]

it's a bit sad though isn't it, to get all those qualifications and then work for a company that seems incapable of stringing an English sentence together...

Anyway Delph - stop pretending you are a high earner, you obviously are not. What happened with the PGCE? did you **** up the probationary year and leave the country?;;)

unless they're under qualified of course.

that would be your answer.
To teach English as a second language, all you need is a four week certificate course. Most people that do this are graduates, but not all by any means.

To teach English as a school subject, one would need a degree, a year training course, plus a probationary year to get qualified.

News / "It's too late for Germany" (but not for Poland) [1798]

You really think these muslim kids care about education and learning german so they can get a decent job?

i daresay some Muslim kids want to
" hang out with their buddies, collect benefits and maybe grope or rob some scary ass looking liberal hipsters walking on their street and sell some weed."

others not.
Your mind is very simplistic isnt it?

Work / Can I get job in IT sector after finishing masters in Poland ? [6]

Remember that all Polish speaking people in Poland have Masters degrees

no they don't, how silly.

OP you know if you do a Masters in the UK, you become 'highly skilled' and it is much easier to get a visa to stay on.

Plus, it would be more highly regarded.

Genealogy / surname Krawiec [38]

it means 'tailor'.
Like the German 'Kravitz'..
It is why there are so many Jewish people called 'Taylor' in English speaking countries, direct translation.
A very very common name.

News / Intentional Miscegenation in Poland [26]

'misceganation' I haven't heard anyone say that since about 1976...:D
and even then it was only said by very old white people who were about to die...

News / EU confirms it will take action against Poland over court reforms [554]

That's the UK's big proud legacy? That people speak English? .. big deal..

well yes, it is a big deal, English being the world of international business etc. Yes I know 'there are more Spanish and Chinese speakers' as I went to junior school.

Not sure what your problem is, but you have a massive chip on your shoulder.
Why not just concentrate on your little American life and let others get on with theirs. I am sure the Mayor of London wont be upset..:)
