I am a teacher. Watch out students of the world.

My month of indoctrination is over and I am now officially qualified to teach English as a foreign language to adults.

It was tougher than I thought it would be. Not so much the course content, assignments and practical work, but just the workload. It took over my life for a month. I was eating, sleeping, eating and drinking it. I still have not recovered. I’m deciphering every sentence I utter to see can I explain it in a simpler way to a non-native speaker.

I’d recommend the course to anyone but perhaps the less intense three month long part-time option would be more useful. For me I didn’t have the time.

Now I’m free to travel the world and support myself along the way. Feels good.
