I have recently finished my Masters of Education program in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages and I'd love to make my way to Poland to pursue teaching. I'm told that many Polish schools will simply be unresponsive to teachers applying from overseas and my experience seems to back that up. I'm wondering how reasonable or perhaps unreasonable it might be for me to simply hop on a plane and go to Poland to search for English teaching work in person. I've been reading about the difficulties of non EU members getting work permits in Poland but it's hard to know how things really are without having tried before. I'm hoping that there are a few experienced expatriots on here who have some knowledge of the Polish EFL industry and can give me a description of the reality of finding work there.
Thanks,
Robert
