After a constant influx of questions surrounding teaching English abroad and all that jazz, I decided at long last to make a brief(ish) and pretty basic video surrounding the subject…I realised as I was doing it that I shouldn’t go too far into detail as it would be a few hours long…so this really is the bare bones.
Here I talk about where you can teach English, the best sites on which to find jobs, and a couple of my own experiences surrounding the field. Will probably do a couple of more detailed videos if people seem interested!
Any questions just get in touch!
Oh, and if you have a video request you can leave a comment, or send me an email – if it’s a cool/interesting idea then I will get to it as soon as I can!

This is really useful. I just wish I’d known this in my 20s.

Really helpful information for those interested in pursuing this! My son is going to teach English to orphaned children in El Salvador for a week after school lets out this summer… he’s 16. I will share your video with him!

Yep – thought it would be a life changing experience for him… never traveled abroad… just seems like a week is too short, but the program is well-developed, so I assume they know what they’re doing! You will be an inspiration to him 🙂

It’s only a week? Oh, that’s a shame – but maybe he will look on to more, may be a good thing!

I know, right? Don’t really get that! He lives at the orphanage with the kids – kind of rough conditions.. but still – I know he’s going to get so into it, and then have to leave! But maybe it will lead to other things – we’ll see! Thanks, John!
