Are you teaching English in Poland? [120]
Here are some good reasons to open a new school in Poland, aren't they? I agree with Seanus, personality is more important than any textbooks. To be inside is not that bad, I would always prefer economically experienced teacher to academically well-educated but theoretically overloaded teacher who start to whine without textbooks.
When I was in Poland in 2002, I was shocked by the low claim clients did have. The equipment of the language school was so bad, the work environment as well, but nobody complaint about it. All customers sat quietly in the last rows, shyly enough to cough in winter times. I tried to set up interactive role plays, but they felt really uncomfortable. My employer manipulated each month my pay slip on his own, but I gave him the tax office after the last term. Wolna Amerikanska - not with me. There were many natives who overbridged their two years'time tax free in Poland hoping to get any attractive Polish student for a short adventure what never happened. They did a really bad job. When I talked about business topics, I started monologues. I needed three months to break the ice. Hard-work, but you get it if you give them stuff enough to trust you,
