Teaching English in Nepal after taking an online TEFL course could be the perfect option for an unusual and enriching experience, it has been claimed.
According to Jim Heckel, director of the Great Falls Public Library in the US, putting off retirement so he and his wife Pam could teach English in Nepal was a great decision.
He wrote in the Great Falls Tribune that they stayed in Kathmandu and taught monks in a Tibetan monastery on a mountainside.
"We immediately fell in love with the monks, who were eager to learn, bright and extremely focused," he explained. "They had an enormous capacity for spirited play and humour and were cheerfully willing to try anything."
Another individual who recently sang the praises of Nepal’s beauty and peaceful qualities is Jo Thompson, a British mother who went on a gap year abroad in 2009 and documented her experiences in the Telegraph.
