We are offering a volunteering programme in Poland, where you will stay in a quality hotel in the middle of a beautiful Polish countryside for 6 days meeting business professionals in a very laid back environment.
During the programme you will talk in English to Polish business executives..and this is pretty much all what is required from you. The objective is to get together a group of interesting people (Around 12 English speakers from all over the world, and around 12 Polish participants, mostly quite successful professionals) and enable them to talk deeper about their interests, learn from each other, exchange ideas, and simply have fun. This is the process in which the Polish participants will practise their English.
The only costs you may need to pay is your flight + any hostel before/after programme. You can get here from anywhere in Europe with Ryanair/Wizzair for as little as GBP 60 return, and should you need a hostel in Warsaw before/after the programme, it can be found for as little GBP 7. These can be all your costs.
Angloville offers:
* an extraordinary experience of Poland, its culture and people
* a chance to interact and network with business executives and successful professionals
* free accommodation in a quality hotel
* the experience of Polish traditional cuisine: full board, 3 meals a day are provided free of charge in the hotel restaurant
* a free tour of Warsaw
* free transport from Warsaw to the programme venue and back
You need to be a native speaker of English, and at least 18 years old.
Our applicants should be enthusiastic about the opportunity to discover a new country and meet the local people. Enthusiasm and good energy is what we are particularly looking for.
The applicants need to enjoy talking to people (due to the intensity of the programme), they should be able to talk about a variety of topic with different people, and also they need to know how to take the initiative in the conversation (since the non-native participants will generally be a bit shy at first, due to their level of English).
We are open to people of different backgrounds so if you think you have a good story to tell, do not hesitate to get in touch with us.

The aim of the programme is twofold. For the English-speaking participants, it is to experience the real Poland and learn about the country from its native representatives. But it is also to benefit them on the broader scale. We are bringing them an opportunity to interact with successful professionals from a number of fields, who are ready to share what they know. For the Polish participants, the programme allows them to take their language to the next level and let out the linguistic potential that each of them is holding inside. It is about improving their speaking and comprehension when interacting with native speakers of English. The benefits lay in the social and cultural sphere as well.
