My name is Hana, i'm married to a wonderful husband. We went travelling together last year in Nov for the first time. We went to London and Europe. It was amazing and beautiful to see all beautiful places we visited on tv and then seeing and touching them in real life was incredible and undiscribable unless you've been there yourself. So i have a new passion for travelling and would love to go back to London in the near future. I've been looking at TESOL for the last two years, but didn't have the passion yet to take the first step, until we got back from our OE last year and thought i'd love to keep travelling but it's so hard when you have to come back home work for acouple of months to save and then it's not just only me i want to travel more with my husband. So alot of factures came into place. And when i looked at TESOL i could see that we could do all of it, travel and learn and teach at the same time. Now it's just up to seeing if the hubby wants to do TESOL as well. So fingers crossed guys...lol
Im hoping to teach in Japan/China first as i've always been fascinated with their culture and to be able to live in any one of those places would diffinetly be a dream come true. I love the food, the history, the culture, i can't wait to see if first hand.
Then seeing how that goes maybe South America, or Indonesia...the world is our Oyster!!!

Hi,
Are you looking to work in China?
Do you want to work with Kindergarten children?
Do you want a good Salary?
Do you want weekends off and two ½ days?
If you do, please contact me today. Our kindergarten needs teachers for the new semester starting September. We also have vacancies in our training centers. We are based in GuangZhou, Dongguan, and Foshan all in Guangdong Province, China.
Our school is called CIEO (Canadian International Education Organization)
If you want more details then please get in touch, If you know someone who might be interested then please forward this to them.
If you can’t start September don’t worry, you can still apply as we need teachers throughout the year!
All the best,
Robert
Hey,
Thanks for your message. With the China internship, our partners TTC will do everything they can to place you and your husband in the same school, however it's not 100% guaranteed, as all schools have different requirements and schools in China are notoriously fickle!
Hope that helps and if you have any other questions give me a shout :)
Hey Hana,
Welcome to Chalkboard! That's cool you're planning to head out on a TESOL adventure - hope you manage to pursuade your hubby it's worthwhile!
To get you started on the stie you might want to chat to these guys who are out teaching in Japan and China at the minute to get their advice:
China: http://www.tefl-chalkboard.com/roberts121 and http://www.tefl-chalkboard.com/rozel09
Japan: http://www.tefl-chalkboard.com/pdixon/
Also, as it's your first time teaching abroad, you might want to look into doing a teaching internship in China - it's a good option as you get loads of support, free food and accommodation and living allowances so you can enjoy your free time. You can get all the details here: http://www.onlinetefl.com/teaching-internships/china/
