NY student teaching english in Poland?
I am a 20 year old student living in NY, but i am of Polish decent, and all my family and relatives live in PL. My grandpa said he'd be able to get me a job teaching English over the Summer in Poland, however, I dont even speak Polish. Do you think he's right, that id be able to get a job teaching english without speaking the native language? And also, if i were to get a job there, do you think itd be worth it, or is the polish currency much lower that US, where i wouldnt make too much when i turn it into US money?

According to EU laws, you would need to be an EU national to live and work in any EU country, and this includes Poland. By law, any Polish employer must prove that they cannot find a suitably qualified candidate for the job in order for the authorities to grant a non-EU national - someone like you - the necessary visa. And the two countries where English is spoken are the UK and Ireland, but EU countries, so .... I'm afraid the Polish ancestry thing means diddly squat, dear. Sorry. Anyway, given that you don't speak the local language, you'll probably be regarded as American, not Polish. You'll be an outsider. I think you'd be better off going to Asia where you everyone has the same chance of getting work permits, and where the money is better.
