Salary for Teaching EFL in Krakow

Your willingness to acknowledge what you have or haven't heard can't change the past so I'm happy to let this go but if want to prove your point then I'll be happy to read it:)

Believe me there is absolutely no law to prevent someone to set up a business in Poland whether you are from Latin America, Middle East, China etc as long as :

1) it is a legal activity

2)You are an investor

On the opposite ,Poland is trying to attract Foreign investments and Businesses!

And I challenge any Polish Lawyer to produce the legal documents saying the contrary.

Isn't the burden on you to produce legal documents stating that was the case in the years I mentioned?

And as long as the person doesn’t want to set up a dzielnosc gospodarcza. The right to do business in such form most certainly is limited to Poles and certain foreigners (e.g. US citizens can run that form of business but Canadians can not). And given that operating any other type of business will mean significantly higher start-up costs and running costs, the disadvantage which one can be put at in comparison to persons who can run a dzielnosc gospodarcza is enough to de facto prevent one from doing business on a certain scale in certain industries.

You really should stick to giving advice about things which you have a vague clue about.

Of course not, if there is no law there is no law.

And in this case there is freedom.

There are some written laws protecting agricultural land which could only be bought by Poles but it was possible to buy agricultural land through a company.

You did not just believe what incompetent lawyers told you verbally ,did you?

A teacher who stays in the same 'cozy' place for too long becomes complacent, lazy, and starved of inspiration . And before you ask, I say that from a lifetime of teaching experience, in both public and private sectors. When I hear of a teacher who retires after being in one school for most of their career, my sympathies go to all the students who were starved of inspirational teaching, and creativity... by a teacher who either so lacked confidence in their own abilities that they were afraid to face new challenges from time to time, or was just too lazy to!

We all learn and develop as individuals and teachers by expanding our experiences, not by adopting insular practices, which virtually guarantee that our methods and ideas will never be challenged. Complacency is a well recognised trait amongst some teachers. So perhaps a little less smugness and an appreciation of an alternative opinion to you own may just be worth considering.

As a senior manager, when appointing staff I am far less likely to be impressed by a candidate who does not have a range of different experiences, gained in at least several different institutions.

I agree PWEI but this is another question, we were strictly talking about the right for non EU or non US citizens to set up a Business in Poland,and not about costs.

There is no such law that prevents a non European non American citizen to set up a legal Business in Poland.

You PWEI should not post a comment just for the sake of contradiction if you don't have a clue of Polish Law

And the law is that citizens of nations where Poles are permitted to run one-person companies are allowed to operate dzielnosc gospodarcza and citizens of countries where Poles are not permitted to are not allowed to. But do feel very free to ignore this fact and just keep banging on about utter bollocks. This is your best line of drivel since you claimed that B&Bs in London cost double the price at which a room in a four-star hotel can be had!

I have 20 years' experience in several countries. After travelling for a long time I decided it was time to settle down. Any problem with that?


You sound like a lot of fun to work for.
There is nothing complacent about my teaching Mr Senior Manager.

apparently he does:




I enjoyed reading that:)


Well then why the hell were you trying to take a dig at me for moving about?

You Can have a four star hotel in London for the price of a B&B in London (50£ a night for a 4 stars you said,right?) but in Gatwick and certainly not in Central London!

I checked your thread and your bargains are all way out from London center.

Twickenham, actually. Am I wrong in thinking that that is London? Although do feel free to now move the goalposts and insist on 'central' London now that you have again been proved wrong.

I wasn't having a dig at you. Why on earth would I do that given my own career path?
I said, "You certainly get around." Read it however you like, but no dig was intended. Have a nice day.

My, My! I do seem to have hit a raw nerve with 'teflcat' don't I. Your sarcastic comment in response to a perfectly valid statement speaks volumes. But what you now say contradicts what you said in your earlier post: that is it better to "stay in one place". Read both your own comments again...and try to decide what you actually believe.

You are right PWEI Twickenham is London, 50£ for a 4 stars hotel in Twickenham.

(Allow me to just remind you that i was saying that the monthly rental price of a flat in Krakow was the equivalent of 4 nights at a B&B in London, i should have said 8 nights at a 4 stars hotel in Twickenham)

Did I say that? I don't think so. Read carefully.

Of course it was a sarcastic dig! Foreigner4 took it for just what it was. For an English teacher you seem to have great difficulty in expressing yourself clearly and effectively.

Why are you so keen to make enemies here? You joined only yesterday.

I refer to my earlier comment... that you do have considerable difficulty in expressing yourself clearly and effectively. Although I may have paraphrased your comment for the sake of brevity...if what you stated was not a recommendation to "stay in one place", then I don't know what is. Do you not understand how in English we use logic and reasoning to deduce inference?

My recommendation to you would be...when in a hole, stop digging!

BritGent. Check your PM.

teflcat has been floored again this round, even if he gets up he'll be on wobbly legs and likely swinging wildly... the question is if he'll beat the count or if it's a ko?

How can you be so sure that sarcasm was intented? You look pretty silly from where I am because I know what my intention was, and it wasn't sarcasm.

Foreigner and BG, I'm sure you'll be very happy together.

Yes, there it is, the wild swing as was predicted....he's swung at the corner man ladies and gentlemen! The referee is waving his arms and this bout has ended in a ko for the BritGent!

You genuinely do not like to be challenged do you. How presumptuous and arrogant of you to assert that the duration of my membership of this site in some way restricts my right to contradict somebody who is talking utter nonsense. Perhaps you would prefer it if I deferred to your supposed 'seniority'. If you cannot enter into a debate, and take as good as you give...without making comments like "make enemies" then you are seriously intellectually challenged. God help your students!

Your private message to me: "BritGent. You make an awful lot of assumptions about me without having the slightest knowledge of my experience, qualifications or skills. You joined this forum yesterday but seem to be in a hurry to make enemies. I suggest you have a look at regular members' past posts so that you can get a better measure of who they are."

....could just as easily be said in the main thread. But realizing that you are making a fool of yourself, you seek to do it privately. If you really do not like people with strong views and opinions, then I what are you doing in teaching! You will not browbeat me my friend! Get used to it. Enemies like you I can cope with believe me!

agreed


Hmmm, a British gent with American spelling...

Telfcat, you are no match to Britgent. :):):):):) You can learn from him.

Oh dear. What an angry man.


I have no problem with people expressing strong views, just with people who would, "...cavil on the ninth part of a hair."
I've got work to do so I'll leave the last word to you or your new friend.

It was neither, actually. I'm surprised that a man as learned as yourself should make such a mistake.

Although given that you appear not to know that a question form is followed by a question mark, perhaps you are not as learned as you would like us to believe?

Oh my, you must have been waiting for that one with fingers at the ready on the keyboard, you got it in so fast. LOL So my learned friend....who was it? ( Here's your chance to shine! ) Incidentally....do you know how to spot a rhetorical question when you see one?

An ideal solution is also to work in a private primary school, thereby working mornings, assuring guaranteed work, with a much more stable and warm atmosphere and better working conditions. Wieliczka Montessori School is currently recruiting. wieliczkamontessori.pl
