This Kymro subject, for instance, is the kind of owners I wanna expose and get them out of business. By quoting me and making one-liner comments shows enough of his ( I'll lay that you are a male) inability to make qualified remarks.
Man, you take it personal and try to be a smart aleck. Please, learn to spell the words "competetive" or "liceum". I'm sure they're way out of your league, or the teachers beneath you can help you in that matter.
Kymro is probably the kind of owner, who runs an illegally established school (out of a room in a lyceum?). He also takes my comments personal as if being alluded to the kind of "business" he's running out of one room.
So, Kymro guy, why don't you tell us which school is the one you own? Or would you be so kind to tell us which qualification made you earn 350 PLN per month?
By the way, one year teaching in Poland was enough and contributed to my 10+ years in the ESL field. |
The number one rule, if you want to pick up on others' misteaks, is not to make any yourself in the accusatory post. Makes you look kinda stoopid.  |

Where? Oh, wait. Let me wear my reading glasses. Where exactly? In yours? I'm not going to correct someone's mistakes. I leave that to his or her discretion. I could point them out as I did while I was drumming him out of character.
Tumteetum, though I won't discuss the absurdity of your comment, I'm willing to entertain your sarcasm. Are you less intermittently funny or explosive by adding anything remotely interesting to this topic? Do you have an easier protocol to correct mistakes? Speaking as an enormously humble person, I find difficult to maintain grudges against those who know better. So I must stand corrected... I certainly was a precipitating factor on your parody or technicality. |

Sorry to contradict but in Poland, liceum is actually spelt 'liceum' and not 'lyceum'.
Competitive is also spelt in the way I spelt it below, (which you happened to quote in your post).

So, congratulations, Bindair, you are the proud winner of the highly coveted 'Dave's ESL Cafe Poland Forum, Inaccurate Pedant of the Month' award for October, and as such find yourself in the esteemed company of previous winners, our resident Upper Class twit Mr Swindells/Shulgin, and his friend, your fellow countryman, the late lamented Shakespearean scholar, Crogo.

| Although there is strangely no information at all about Warrren's qualifications as a teacher anywhere on his website. Surely some mistake! |
If it helps, I have a 1st Class degree, and a PGCE, as well as that much coveted TEFL certificate.
What are your qualifications, Harry 
Would you be qualified to work as a teacher back home |

Kymro - I'm interested in what made you work for the state sector? Was this just so long ago that there wasn't much private-school work around? |
When I started working for myself I went to the director of a liceum (spelt with an 'i' in Poland btw), and asked to hire a room.
First he suggested a price, then said I could have the room for free if I agreed to work there as a regular teacher.
Wanting to keep in a good relationship with him I agreed.
The rest of your post was very good. |

Kymro, I have one word for you: Self-assertion. Once you learn to fake that, there'll be no stopping you.
By the way, you ooze. Yes, that certain something that subliminally champions ignorance. I feel pity that you felt alluded and this is tantamount to proving my point on the topic.
Now you are beginning to annoy others by trivializing this forum and name-calling. But I know that, towards the end, and out of compulsive curiosity, I always befriend my most colorful detractors. |

Don't really feel I was being alluded to.
As far as I'm aware you were going on about female bosses of Polish nationality, and I hardly fit this description.
Furthermore, you spoke about the need for native speakers to open their own schools.
Now, what exactly do you 'ooze'. An unpleasant cocktail of extreme arrogance, combined with abject ignorance and a dose of imbecility.
I believe you have succeeded in proving more about yourself than 'bosses'.

That's a little rich coming from someone who, in a post littered with howlers, falsely accused me of poor English.

I would suggest that some form of apology is in order. |

I'm a bit dismayed knowing that your tiny brain has been calcified by a capricious rant. It is reassuring to see that you haven't formed any sense, or something a little less on the nose now, on a topic far removed from you and therefore much less entertaining. It would have been one thing had you had any modicum of argument. But for reasons of pure bile and sport, you glibly drum yourself up for ridicule.

These are unrequited terms. You seriously need to avail yourself of basking and take it with sentiment. Or rattle. Your choice. |

I'm sorry, I understand that Kymro has a choice and I understand that there are two options to choose from. However, I have absolutely no idea what those two options mean. Would it be possible to elucidate? |

I'm quite favourably impressed by the breadth of the vocbulary you have employed here.
If you wish to further improve your command of the English language, you could do so by endeavouring to ascertain the actual meaning of the words which you have so recently introduced into your lexicon.
And, once having discerned the signification of these words, it would be advisable for you to at least attempt to master the technique of combining them to create comprehensible sentences. |
