About Me

I'm a qualified teacher looking to expand my experience by teaching English abroad. I'd love the chance to work in Japan primarily as well as other areas of East Asia and South America. I qualified as a Science Teacher back in 2007 but a conspiracy of circumstances has kept me in the private sector until now. But now it's finally time to properly get out there and do something new and where better than the land that spawned all my favourite games, movies and animé. So now I'm starting down the road to getting a TEFL qualification.

The Calm Before the Classroom

So, my classroom experience starts this weekend and I’m really looking forward to it. I have no idea what to expect, but I’m hoping it will start by addressing my major concerns. I’ve already got a fair bit of teaching experience under my belt. I know how to put a lesson together, measure a bit of progress and so forth, but what I just don’t know is how to get around the language barrier. When...

Pokemon, Sheep and TEFL courses - Away to Japan!

Life has a way of upending even the best laid plans, so when my current plans went about as far as 'holiday in Cornwall', life had no trouble in throwing them out the window. When I recently found myself on the wrong side of the latest management restructure I was therefore suddenly faced with a bit of spare cash and a dauntingly uncertain future. As such, I started throwing around a variety of ludicrous ideas...
