I'd like to spend a year in Turkey to polish my language. Does anyone know if it's hard for a foreigner to find a job there? I have a master's degree in English and I've been teaching English for 5 years, but I'm not a native speaker. Well...I am a native speaker but a Polish one Do you think I stand a chance to find anything?

you definetely have chance to find a job as a teacher but you have to apply to the right places in the big cities.
I know many places in both Ankara and Istanbul where they need forign teachers. One place where you definetley have to apply is ODTU or METU in Ankara since they have department for Polish language as well.I graduated from that school. That's why, I know that they teach Polish.
By the way, all the programmas are given in ENglish in this school. You have chance to teach English as well/ They have department of English language teaching and English literature
www.metu.edu.tr
Bilkent university is also possible to teach for forigners

Slm!
I have this same question too, I am from Mexico City, I'm 23 years old and finish my major I might go to Turkey for a while. Im trying to learn turkish but I find it a little bit hard however, I am doing all for learn.
However, I cant say I talk the language, I study marketing, I talk english and italian, I know accounting and I am took also a secretary course, i've worked before in this area too. Here I can get good jobs but I dont know how easy could be getting a job in Turkey... I can give spanish or italian lessons, I could do several stuffs but I dont know if it could be hard finding a job in there.
Kisses to everybody

For a foreigner, it is much easier to find a job in Turkey that it is a native turk in many cases.
The most important thing that these course managers are looking for is native speakers. In many cases, foreigners without a teaching degree will get the teaching jobs before a native turk with a degree and certification. I dont think the typical language schools pay very well, so the best thing a foreigner can do is after getting settled, teach private lessons. You will make alot more money. These jobs are mostly without insurance or work visas so another drawnback to working this way is that you will have to leave Turkey every 3 months to get your tourist Visa renewed. They even run buses to greece or Bulgaria so that you can do this in one day from istanbul. I hope this helps someone and also encourage everyone to come see the most fantastic city in the world.
