Hiya! My name is Melanie, I'm 25 and from Australia. I recently returned from an i-to-i volunteer trip to India. Since coming home, I haven't been the same. I have now enrolled into a TEFL course, as an excuse to have to travel again, like I need one! I have no idea where I want to teach, so I would love to hear about your ideas and your experiences :)

Log in to leave a comment or Create an accountgday mel. Im about half way through the course bu have kind of come to a standstill at the moment. Ive been pretty flat chat at work. Yea im heading off early january and flying in to costa rica, but no plans really from there. How about yourself?
Hi Mel,
I had to take time off to help my goddaughters after a car crash. They are home and doing well now, and so am I!
My classes begin Sep. 27. George has been happy with the online coursework, but the in-person classes are much more effective in terms of being hired.

hi!!
Are you happy with the courses??I think I'll start too and give it a try to find a job abroad!!!I would love to go to South America as well, Argentina especially!!!
Hi Mel,
My life was interrupted when my goddaughters were in a car wreck. Fortunately, they are both alive and back home now. I am helping their parents for the next few weeks. THEN, I will be heading for Mexico. My course will start on September 27. I will be happy to share my experiences!

Hello Mel,
Thanks for dropping a line. Yes, theres heaps of jobs been advertised in Turkey currently for the new semester in September. Let me know if you decide to go. Istanbul, Antalya, Izmir are perfect areas to teach in Turkey. Cute pic, nice big smile:)
Hi Mel,
I'll be going to Guadalajara in late September. My husband is going to begin the online course this week and then take the 5-day teacher training in Guadalajara while I'm there. I'd be happy to share information on my experiences there.

Hey, how's it going? I haven't booked ny flights yet but I'll be going around the 20th October I think. Any ideas yourself? Having a little look it seems between £300 and £350 seems like the likely price to me - don't know if you've seen different? Heathrow seems like the main airport as well which suits me fine - I'm not all that far from Heathrow or Gatwick. Is there a group going together that you know of?
Hey Melanie, welcome to Chalkboard! Bet you had an amazing time in India, can imagine it would be hard to re-adjust back to the daily grind! If you have any questions about teaching english or the courses we offer, feel free to send me a message or call me in the office on 1300885036. Cheers!

Hello :) I bet your travels in India were fantastic? What area did you do to? My friend has a non-profit that works in a school in the Himalayan region...I hope to go there someday!
Where are you interested in teaching English abroad?
I am looking for further information..i want to take the lessons too, but i am a little disappointed because if you want a job abroad its preferred to be a native english speaker and i am not :(
Were would you like to teach??
