Welcome to the continuing exploration of a new universe

I'm an English teacher.

If you've got a B.A.;
a lust for travel;
a knack for, and an interest in, teaching;
and a wee bit of patience -
Indonesia could be the place for you !
Experience preferred.

 

 

 

We do more before nine o'clock than ... Well, maybe it's not exactly like that.

Where have I taught?

I've taught in Canada, South Korea and in Indonesia.
I've taught writing. I've taught the usage of various software packages to college and business classes, and I've taught English. My students have been younger than six and old as sixty.

Teaching is exciting, frightening, fulfilling and frustrating. When you enjoy it there's no better job in the world. When you hate it, it's a physically and mentally draining nightmare.

If you're just in it for the money, WAKE UP! There are easier ways to earn money. Teachers are not the best-paid workers in the world.

There are very few highs to equal getting an idea across to a student, or a group of students. When you have a student present a concise, well-thought presentation you feel that all the effort has meant something.
