Hi all,

I was just wondering if anyone could give me some ideas about what to do this summer for work. I currently work at a language school but at the end of June the school shuts for the summer break. Last year I did a summer camp, but I'm not so sure this time as it only provided employment for a month and the pay was not great. I have considered going back to Britain for these months and maybe working behind a bar etc. If anyone can give me a few suggestions I would be very appreciative.

Thanks in advance

Karl

Hi Karl,

I also teach English and a little bit of Polish too, and I know that many language schools are looking for teachers only for a holiday period. There are many job ads in May and June, recruiting teachers to work for them. You could also look for a job in translations, usually it's not a full time job, so you would still have time for another job if you wanted.

Good luck, malwinaflower.

Realistically, you have the choice of either working summer camps or working a manual job in the UK. In theory, the reason we're paid such a high hourly rate is to compensate for the summer months.

Anyone know of any jobs for teenagers in Krakow for the summer? Or where to look? My daughter's done a lot of walking with little success:((

Sorry, but that sounds a little risque! Questions: how old is your daughter, what kind of work does she want/can she do?

Can i go to Poland for the summer and find a job

im in college learning polish and it is very hard to learn it, so is this going to make my chances very limited or impossible. if anyone could tell me what website to go to so i can find info. im saving for plane ticket now and def want to go there for the whole summer. thanks.

It's not difficult. I got a job out there with no knowledge of Polish whatsoever. Plus it's busy in summer with lots of tourists so your knowledge of English will be useful in any hospitality place and tips will be good with it being busy. I am not sure about English schools and wether they stay open all summer, but I think they are so you can go into English teaching. I would check out gumtree for jobs (and accommodation).

Last year I did a summer camp,

When much younger, I used to go to summer English camps for 10 years. It was great fun, we did crazy things. Now I don`t have time coz I am busy relaxing in the countryside.
