Hey Charlotte,


Trust the internship will be the time of your life you will meet people, everyone will be nervous but you will grind it out for a maybe a week then enjoy it. This is the vibe I have egot from people who have done it before whilst reading around the chalkboard.  You wont be alone at all you will have more friends than you can imagine.  I lived in Thailand for 3 months and and many other places in SE Asia and people are so hospitable as long as you just respect their culture.

Hey,


Welcome to Chalkboard. Great to see you're interested in teaching abroad. Have you thought about where you would like to teach?


To get you started on the site you may want to take a look at the groups to get an idea of what teaching in different countries is like:


http://www.onlinetefl.com/tefl-chalkboard/groups


To give you a good idea of where you can teach and lots of graduate-specific advice, you should download a free copy of The Graduate’s Guide to Teaching & Travelling Abroad from here: http://www.onlinetefl.com/graduates.


Hope you enjoy the site and feel free to ask me any questions you have :-)
