I want to teach English in Poland and I don't know where to start! PLEASE HELP! [23]
Thank you guys for your advice! You honestly are helping me so much
If you can get one that will qualify you to work as an elementary school teacher
Do you feel drawn more to one than the other and if so why?
I honestly feel much more drawn to teaching adults. I want to teach people who want to be taught and I get excited thinking about helping people achieve their goals. However, I assume that there are not many jobs to teach adults, since the older generation probably has little interest in learning English at this point in their lives, while younger adults probably are able to speak English already from learning in school. So, the main reason I even considered teaching elementary is simply because I know there would be great demand as Delph said. The idea of teaching school age kids freaks me out a bit though, but that might just be nervousness/fear of the unknown?
Also I would like to move to Krosno ideally, not small but not huge either. Krakow is also on the table depending on where my husband ends up working but we both would prefer to live in Krosno if we can.
And as for timing, I did some digging and my university does offer the option to take BEd as an after degree on top of my BSc and it would only take 2 years. However it looks like that would only be for primary & secondary education and so far I only see masters options for adult education :/ I'll have to keep looking though
