About Me

I'm a high school teacher (Physical Education/Science/Maths) on the Gold Coast.  I'm doing this course so I can teach privately on the coast and when I get out of here (ASAP) teach abroad.

Hi!


I couldn't post on your Spain blog for some reason, so here it is :)


From personal experience I would say wage wise you might be a bit disappointed, most of the time living expenses in other countries are cheaper so the lower wages can often stretch further but they are usually lower from what you might be used to making.

Fun wise though, I think the experience is what you make it. It’s always going to be new and exciting and daunting all at once but a lot of people prefer teaching in a foreign country, the students usually have a greater interest in you as a person and teacher and you can enjoy working in a way you wouldn’t normally have to (eg; gestures etc).

Hope it helps!

Hi there,


My name is Crystal, I work for i-to-i in the Australian office. I just thought that I would send you a big warm WELCOME TO CHALKBOARD!


It's great to see that you already have your TEFL qualification and you're making your way through it! How's it been going for you so far?


Have you thought of where you might like to travel to once you've completed your course?


If you're ever in need of any TEFL advice, please don't hesitate to call us here in the office on 1300 885 036 and we will be more than happy to help you!


Cheers!!
