When it comes to speaking to you TEFLers who decided to pack up and jet off to start your teaching adventures abroad we always notice the same thing… There’s never as many of us guys out there then there are ladies! So with that in mind, we’ve decided to put together some reasons why this could be and try to inspire you men in to taking the leap where some of your fellow man could...

Hi Max!!

It made me happy to hear that it would be easier to search for a job in Argentina because its one of my favourite places in the world!!After I take the lessons will you help get in contact with the employers??

hi! im not sure where to go. anywhere would be fine lol. im planning to squeeze some time to take TEFL courses during nursing school. by the way nice to meet you.

Hi!!

Thanks for your interest!!I haven't started a TEFL course yet, I am intrested though..I am here because I need some further information. I am not a native speaker and I don't know if teaching abroad would be possible. I would love to teach in Thailand, Argentina, Japan or in UAE. Any advice??????

Hey thanks very much, I'm just looking for experience teaching and of a completely new culture. If I do a TEFL I would like to go to one of China, Taiwan, Thailand or South Korea in no real order. Still not sure if I can afford the initial step though and whether or not TEFL suits me, so I'm just thinking it all through and not rushing any decisions!

Thanks again!

heyy thanks for the advice! i called my doctor about the jabs so that's getting sorted out and insurance can wait til i get back from holiday :)

Hows it going Maxy! Cheers for putting me in touch with 'lintse07', I'm sure her advice will come in extremely useful.

Yeah after South Korea I'd like to go somewhere in Europe up until the olympics, definitely get back for that! What attracted you to Europe?

I started my 140hr Tefl training today. Seems to be ok so far. Thanks for your response.

Hey, I was considering South Korea but not 100% yet. Are you currently teaching?

Hey, Max. No, I have not taught abroad. But, I will definitely be traveling a lot in the years to come. Finishing this certification should really help. I want to teach in Ecuador and perfect my Spanish.

Have you taught abroad, yet? If so, where?

hey max...i'm a non native english speaker at the end of my 120 hr online tefl course. i'm hoping to get some advice on what my next step should be..was wondering if you help ?
