About Me
I am currently teaching at Shandong Vocational college of Business and Economics in Weifang, China. This is my first job as a TEFL teacher and am enjoying teaching very much.
I love traveling and living abroad. I want to travel the world and hope that my TEFL certificate will by my ticket.

www.blog.addingstamps.com I know these blogs are to help people at various places in their TEFL certification, I wish I had such a resource when I started out. For those thinking about coming to China, its an amazing place, but like every country has its ups and downs. I'm currently living and teaching in Weifang, Shandong province. Rather than keep two blogs I have posted a link to my personal blog for anyone who would like...

Log in to leave a comment or Create an accountHi there, I applied for the China internship, but was unsuccseful at getting a placement even though they had spaces available.
I am really upset at the whole matter as I have experience with children, and understand cultural differences. I dont have a degree though.
Hi Kayte,
Thanks for your honest and encouraging answer. I really love how everyone at i-to-i and connected with them is so candid. Other sites/ companies I looked at seemed to be sanitizing their testimonials and promotional blurbs, but here it's just straight out there. It's great because it allows us newbies to make a realisitc assessment of what we are heading into as we make our decisions. And so far nothing I've read has deterred me! :-) Kate.
HI, Just wondering if you had previous teaching experience and/ or a university degree before getting your TEFL? And do you have any advice/tips on traveling to/ living in/ teaching in China? I will hopefully be doing the Internship in Beijing in August and am about to start the 120hr online course. Thanks, Kate.
