Hi, my name is Sarah Howson and I come from the UK. I am 21 years old and I have just completed my 3 year degree in drama and video production. All my life i have wanted to be an actress, but recently, because i know how competitve this industry is, I have decided to get some experience in teaching drama and english abroad, as this is something i would enjoy a lot as well.
My friends describe me as being very bubbly, outgoing, adventurous and determined.
I love shopping, eating lots of chocolate, going out with my friends and having fun and meeting new people.
I am hoping to go to thailiand on an internship in october /november time, I am just waiting for it to be confirmed.
I hope to meet people on here who are also thinking about going to thailiand to.
If you want to know more about me and have a chat, it would be my pleasure

Hi Sarah, How are you? Are you still coming to Thailand in Oct? Hope all is well! Susie x
Hi Sarah!
I see your'e off on the Thailand internship in October! My boyfriend and I are signed up for the supported package which is slightly different to what you're doing but it should mean that we are out in Thailand for 5 months teaching as well! How is online course coming? I'm still struggling through the grammar Awareness part but slowly getting there! Have you had a place confirmed with a school yet? Where abouts in the UK are you from? I'm from Welwyn Garden City in Hertfordshire and my Bryn, my boyfriend, is from Ashford in Kent.
Take care,

Hey sarah,
Congrats on the degree result!!!!! great news!!!!
the weekend course is great! bit of a brain buster, long days and lots of information but they manage to make it a good laugh and I found it very interesting! They do put you on the spot a bit with asking you to give a ten minute lesson on the first day but they train you well for it during the day and they let you do it in pairs!
Have you managed to get a letter or anything form your uni instead of waiting for you certificate? MAnaged to send my application off today, sooooo nervous, see quite a few people have been confirmed already!
yikes.
I love your idea of all getting the same flights and stuff!! Do uou think you guys will be flying from london or manchester? We should get onto all meeting up for a drink too, would be lovely!
Hi Sarah
I'm Lauren, just signed on to chalk board so trying to introduce myself to everyone :) I graduated three years ago now.. wheres that gone!! Its definitely time for a change. How are you finding the course? Theres alot to get done eh! Anyway, hope to hear from you, take it easy!

Btw, I see you're worried about not having your degree certificate. I've been told I can just get a degree transcript and a letter of confirmation from my uni so you should be able to do the same. I don't graduate until January but I can can get an early release of my certificate thankfully.
That's alright. I'm leaving Derby on Thursday so we won't be able to do Friday or Sunday I'm affraid. Never mind, as you say, we've got plenty of time. We could maybe do with canvassing people's opinions on when and where we could have a night together couldn't we? Maybe start a new discussion topic do you think?
How are you getting on with your course then anyway? I've got my grammar module certificate now so that's 20 hours down.
Hey sarah, very brave of you to make the call and go to thailand! Dont doubt it'll be the right choice then!
Where are you up to on your course? I'm just at the end of the grammar module, have done the weekend course and now just need to crack on with the important bit!
I've now completed my application but nervous about sending it off! haha.
Congrats on your summer job btw!!!
Oooooh get you. A 2:1! Well done. I know who I'll be sitting next to in class.
Tuesday is good for me. I'll be down Tuesday and Wednesday. We can either do it at Carl's house or we could wonder up to the uni. I don't really know of anywhere in town with wifi. I presume you've got a laptop you can bring? Look at us, we're like a regular little homework club aren't we? Get ya geek on!
By the way, I might have believed you're not a drama queen if you hadn't used the word 'typical' before it. So you're not a typical drama queen? You're an atypical drama queen then yeah? Whatever that is?
Hi Sarah!
just to say hello!! Ill hopefully be meeting you in october if all goes well with our applications :)
Exciting stuff! xxx
