I'm retired teacher, age 69 - I want to teach English in Poland voluntarily, in return for Polish language [22]
How easy is it to find work?
Very easily if you're offering to work for free in a nowadays affluent country. The owners of private language schools will scarcely believe their luck.
Worth remembering though that there's an oversupply of people chasing teaching work in PL and every lesson you teach, you'll be taking bread off the table of a Teacher there.Some have kids to feed and depend on their wages to live.
If you're still interested, there's a company that does intensive courses (at a high cost to participants) which are taught in good rural hotels by mostly elderly volunteers. All they get is meals and a (shared) hotel room. I forget the name but will ask an octogenarian friend who sometimes does it when I write to her later today.
Another possibility is to advertise free lessons for the unemployed who otherwise wouldn't have access to them. Churches and charities in poorer post industrial areas may be able to advise on that. If you want a contact, there's also an organisation called Smile Warsaw. They're on Facebook and findable on Google. They work with the homeless and mostly provide food however other professionals do offer their services for free. They're a good bunch of people and if language training doesn't fit, someone there may be able to point you in a direction that may suit.
