Work / Brazilian moving to Poland - job ideas, Polish language, other tips? [30]

There are little differences all around in grammar. And bigger ones in pronunciation.

I'm learning Brasilian Portuguese, and once I bought an European audio CD course. I didn't find anything Brasilian, so I thought it will also be ok.

And gosh, Portuguese speak it almost like Germans :D

I also think that the Brasilian version is much more simple.

Life / School system in Poland? [59]

Maybe I didn't read something, but I think somebody forgot about some other schools:
After kids finish gimazjum, they have 4 types of schools to chose:
- Liceum Ogolnoksztalcace (higher-secondary school that's aim is to prepare for studying on a university. When you finish it, you write Matura, a general exam that gives you access to higher education and is also a certificate of middle education.)

- Technikum (something like LO, but you also get to learn a job. At the end of the school you have to pass Matura AND another exam, that checks your job qualifications. If you pass it you get a certificate that says for example that you are a competent informatic)

- Szkola zawodowa (here you concentrate on getting the job. You don't write matura)
- Liceum Profilowane (same as Techinkum, but with different array of jobs)

If you for don't want to study at the university, and don't have a job certificate (or you want another), you can go to Szkola Policealna (literally 'after-liceum school'). There they teach different skills and jobs.

Wow, looks nice! Thanks :) I already found myself another audio course before, but this will also be a great help! The file size looks promising.
