Work / Teaching English in Poland - better opportunities for an American? [20]

Hey all. I'm an American who currently teaches English at a kindergarten in Moscow. I use the term 'kindergarten' loosely because it's more like a ****** daycare for rich people. Not entirely sure if I've picked the wrong career or if this school just sucks, but whatever the case, I'm looking for greener pastures.

I lived in Poland as a child and have always thought of going back. I've even toyed around with the idea that I might try becoming a citizen, although I'm not sure how feasible that is considering I'm not fluent in Polish (yet). It's also been awhile since I've been there, so I could definitely be jumping the gun on that one... For now, I just want to get back and see what happens. I've read a lot of bad about the TEFL scene in Poland, but I still want to hear from people who currently work there. What are some good schools to apply to? I'm not seeing a lot of job listings out there, and I'm trying to avoid places like York School of English and the rest of their ilk. I'm not opposed to working in smaller or rural areas either. I used to live in Czestochowa and am wondering if anyone's worked there before?

Your advice is appreciated!
