Hello!
I am currently studying my undergraduates degree in Elementary Education at McGill University in Montreal. One of my courses required me to build a website on the topic of my choice. Thinking back to my experience working abroad and my hope to do so again after graduation motivated me to build a site focused entirely on teaching English overseas. Hopefully, it will provide a place for new teachers to find knowledge, for experienced teachers to impart said knowledge, and earn me a decent grade. : ) During my four-month experience teaching English in Cambodia, I found no sites that offered this kind of practical basic information. I spent many rather painful hours with an unreliable internet connection, searching for worksheets, suggestions and activity ideas.
My goal is to create a site that I would have wanted to consult before I left and even while I was abroad. My hope is that teachers will find this site and add to my very limited and sometimes erroneous knowledge so as to create a database of practical, helpful, available information.
Thank you for reading!
