wwwpolyglotocom: but I just noticed that many people are criticising Callan method? I am very interested, why? Because the best method is taking advantage of all available methods in order to adjust to your students` needs.

Fully agree, but I was always in favor of Callan method. Of course, I realize it is not good enough on its own and students are required to do some self studying. At least this method let you talk and listen to the spoken language, and I think that in Polish schools oral English is very limited. If you go for Callan classes you still have to do your own grammar exercises using online courses or books.

mactifosi: As a foreigner you will need to get an ID card - Karta Pobytu. After six months you are also supposed to change you driving license to a Polish one etc etc. Are you sure? I think you can drive on your EU licence anywhere in the EU.

Pushbike: Are you sure? I think you can drive on your EU licence anywhere in the EU. No obligation to exchange an EU licence - and in fact, there is little benefit unless you're a permanent resident. Temporary residents must pay fines "on the spot" - and also get points. Other licence holders must pay on the spot - but no points, unless you're stupid enough to tell them that you have a PESEL.

But do they understand what they're saying ;-) I hate the Callan method and there is a reason you don't need to be qualified to teach it.
