About Me


Hi there. My name is Joey. I am a 37 year old residing in Orlando, Florida/USA. I love to travel, have fun, and enjoy life! I haven't participated in the Teach English Abroad program, but I am very interesting in it. I hope to be doing it around August 2012. If anyone has any tips or advice, feel free to send it my way :)
 
I am very interested in Europe as my first choice to teach. If I am not able to be placed in Europe, I would like to try Brazil, Argentina, or Asia. I love to travel, so I am very excited for this opportunity.
 
Also, I am an artist and graphic designer. I have worked in this field for about 12 years while residing in Orlando, Florida. If you want to see my work, check out www.krop.com/joeygomez.
 
CIAO :)

Prague/Training Course/Zivnostensky List

Hi there! I was wondering if anyone has heard of a "Zivnostensky List" in Prague? It's a trade visa, I believe. Apparently it makes finding a teaching position a lot easier, since you are legal to work. Has anyone attained one before? Also, what's a good TEFL training course to take in Prague? The good ones which are reputable, and the ones to stay away from. (TEFL Worldwide Prague, The learning House, Oxford TEFL...) Thanks!!

TEFL Certificate Abroad or no?

I was wondering if you get a TEFL certificate abroad as opposed to doing it in your hometown/online, do you have a better chance of getting jobs in that city/country where you took the TEFL course? For example, I am in the USA and I can take the class in my city, locally. But I would consider taking the Czech Republic 4-week TEFL certification class in Prague, if I had a better chance of getting...

OMG, wow. That's funny about the beach and weather. Yea, I definitely have had my fill of blistering hot summer weather. I was thinking of backpacking too. But yes, the money situation does present a problem. Maybe I could just charm them into giving me a job, lol. Glad to hear about Barcelona. I have hear it was pretty amazing!  So where would you like to teach?? Have you heard of the company, "TEFL Worldwide"? 

hahaha aww baby! lol :-) yeahh we clearly both know the feeling! oh wow, really don't know the meaning of hot weather, people freeek out here and hit the beach when we hit slightly more than minus temperatures haha :D yeahhhh agreeeed, i almost wonder if backpacking would be better. problem with that is no money to my name! ahhhh sooo jealousss! and ohh yes of course, yeah they make it very easy for EU citizens to work in diff EU countries, but not so much for others... grrr..! i'm sure you'd manage it somehow, just charm them :-P and yesss barcelona is the best, go there for sure!!

Oh great! I visited London and Paris while in high school. Which was many many years ago, LOL. Brighton sounds like a wonderful place. But I completely understand living in a "pretty" place but wanting to get out and experience more. I grew up mostly in Florida, which is an amazing state. And I do like Florida, except for the summer months. Which is typically like 6 months long of really hot weather. It's funny, I feel the same about Europe. It's so big, and I don't know where to start! Yes, we have the Harry Potter world here in Orlando. It's pretty amazing what they did to create that at Universal Studios. I would actually LOVE to teach Spain before Czech Rep. But I heard without a EU passport, it's almost impossible since it's so popular. So I guess I will settle for visiting and traveling to Spain.

I'm from London, there at the moment trying to focus away from my university town, which is Brighton on the south east coast of England! it's an amazing place; seaside, amazing nightlife, prettiest houses/buildings.. all very colourful, surrounded by lots of countryside! haa :-) no wonder I can't do any work there lol!! ohhh that's awesome, I've never been to America, it's so big I wouldn't know where to begin, ha! how do you find living in florida?! omg just realsied you must be near the Harry Potter world then... ahhhh soo jealous!!! big fan, ha. and oh awesome that should be really fun!!! i'm tempted by europe myself, maybe Spain as have been lots and it's really fun and liberal etc! 

LOL, that's great tho :)  Yes I hope so too. Where are you from? Where are you interested in teaching? I'm from Orlando, FL-USA. I'm interested in teaching in Europe. Hopefully Prague. 

thanks!! :-) i love how i created that group even before filling out the rest of my profile... too gay for my own good haaa! :-) i hope more people join!
