learn to teach English

I’d love to travel. Preferably do some volunteer work while I’m at it. I see this as a really useful tool to have at your disposal if you’re travelling.

It’s also something that might allow me to do some evening and part-time work.

I’m actively pursuing this: as of July 2009 I’m enrolled on a Cambridge CELTA course starting in September.

I can finally say I did it

I always wanted to be a teacher when I was at school. Teaching English as a foreign language wasn’t my dream back then, I would’ve preferred primary school teaching, but it’s what I want to do now. Firstly, it will allow me to travel and live abroad. Secondly, I think it will be a worthwhile job and I think I will be good at it. I’m going to do a TEFL course as soon as I can (which is basically as soon as I get some money together).

...but one has to be ready to understand and accept all responsability working in school involves. I don’t think I’ll be ready to do that for a year, when I’ll have my diploma. And – I am afraid, because once you get trapped into that beautiful world of teaching – there is no way out :) I’ve heard this so many times :)
