because I take an aggressive approach
my first thought is to take the aggressive approach
Childcare and the beauty business must be dog-eat-dog in the US, but I guess that's how life is over there. Here in Europe your approach would not work, as what you have to offer is limited. You would be in competition not only with EU nationals, but also with Polish English teachers with higher degrees in Philology. I know several excellent Polish teachers whose English, and knowledge about the language, is far superior to most native speakers. Having said that, if you get here in late summer (June is the worst possible time) and start knocking on doors, you might find something.
