Good afternoon, hope everyone is well.
I'm planning to spend a couple of years working in Poland, preferably in education.
I'm 29 years old, I have a degree in English Literature, a PGCE plus a CELTA. I've no baggage and a fair bit of money saved!
I've been studying Polish for 3 years at evening classes and have a couple of Polish friends who I practise conversation with.TBH my written Polish isn't all that good but I can get by with the spoken stuff!
I have 5 years experience teaching TEFL and ESL in the Bristol area.IT skills aren't great but I can get worksheets together if need be!
Been reading lots of personal accounts of teaching in Poland, some great success stories.
I know the market for teachers in the big cities is saturated, so where are the jobs going to be?
I am very happy right now
TBH, I am living in paradise here:)
You seem to have really cracked it!
Don't want to queer your pitch, any clues as to the rough area you're teaching in? N, E, W, S? Province?
I'd like to work in the northern area of Poland but anywhere to start off with!
Ideas welcomed!
