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
