I like the school in Warsaw called Combridge.
Com Bridge I think it actually is.

To whom? My students prefer American English to British English because they say it's easier to understand when spoken. Americans don't swallow consonants like the British do. Their words, not mine.


Well, yes, because it is easier and sounds more "casual". Surely it has many advantages. But the nasty AmE phonetics demand from the speaker to chew tobacco while talking to gain that Southern drawl ;)

Maybe you meant it as a joke, but it's not far from the truth!

Lots of different regional accents in the US and in the UK. Variety is the spice of life although it must make students crazy.

British or American accent??. Deos it make any difference for a Pole?. Most of English teachers in Poland speak with a Polish accent anyway.

I knew one teacher in PL, nice guy, good teacher, who was from Alabama and spoke like an extra from Gone with the Wind. Until he entered the classroom at which point his accent suddenly changed to East Coast Social Register WASP.

The way people speak in England involves local dialects, obviously as a Yank you are probably unaware of this. Speaking as a Polish person living, working and teaching in Manchester I've experienced no problems whatsoever in coming to terms, understanding and adapting to all the local customs, traditions and ways of speaking. At least they know how to spell COLOUR.
