MikeSmith 1 | 1 22 May 2010 #1I will be moving to Warsaw in September (2010) with My Girlfriends job. I am a CELTA certified Native English teacher with over 2 years experience. I am presently teaching Business and conversational English with a school in Bratislava, Slovakia.Can anyone offer advice about schools? For example, what schools have good/bad reputaions and why?I am also interested in any information about life in general, Does and dont's, Expat communities and so on.Thank you in advance for any help.

For example: search for teach Poland.How was Bratislava? I live in southern Poland, near enough to the Slovakian boarder, I have not been to Bratislava yet but other places.I heard it's not a good place to go, is that true?Anyway best of luck on your move.

OP MikeSmith 1 | 1 30 May 2010 #4Thanks for your info. Sean BM.As far as Bratislava goes... It is not a tourist city like prague budapest or Vienna, But like anywhere it has its charms. They are just not as apparent as the other cities.

DominicB - | 2,707 25 Dec 2014 #6Do you have any salable qualifications or skills? If not, then the best you will do is cold-call sales or low-level collections at a call center, lousy jobs for lousy pay, especially in an expensive city like Warsaw.
