She learnt a lot about the English language itself, about how Spanish is different, and above all that an English teacher needs patience! I also chat briefly with Matt Treglia who began teaching English face-to-face in Korea but now teaches online and is location independent.\r\n \r\nFinally, I chat with long-time English teacher and writer of some excellent text books and readers for English learners here in Australia, Clare Harris, who has a whole host of useful tips for people who may be considering teaching English somewhere in the world.\r\n \r\nLinks:\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Cassandra’s blog, The Quirky Pineapple -  <a href=\"http://www.thequirkypineapple.com/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">http://www.thequirkypineapple.com</a></li>\r\n<li>Matt’s site Words with Winos - <a href=\"http://wordswithwinos.com/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">http://wordswithwinos.com</a></li>\r\n<li>Interview with Matt on The Offbeat Life - <a href=\"https://www.theoffbeatlife.com/episodes/makemoneyteachingenglishonline/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.theoffbeatlife.com/episodes/makemoneyteachingenglishonline/</a></li>\r\n<li>Clare’s site The Book Next Door - Australian ESL materials for adults and young adults - <a href=\"http://thebooknextdoor.com/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">http://thebooknextdoor.com/</a></li>\r\n<li>Clare Harris - Englishy Things - https://clareharris.com </li>\r\n<li>MOOC on “Exploring the World of English Language Teaching” - <a href=\"https://www.futurelearn.com/courses/explore-elt/3\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.futurelearn.com/courses/explore-elt/3</a> </li>\r\n<li>Join our Facebook group <a href=\"https://www.facebook.com/groups/thoughtfultravellers\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.facebook.com/groups/thoughtfultravellers</a></li>\r\n<li>Tweet me @amandakendle</li>\r\n<li>Hashtag #thoughtfultravelpod</li>\r\n<li>Follow me on Facebook at <a href=\"https://www.facebook.com/NotABallerina\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.facebook.com/NotABallerina</a>   </li>\r\n<li>Show notes: <a href=\"http://notaballerina.com/83\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">http://notaballerina.com/83</a></li>\r\n</ul>","author_name":"Amanda Kendle"}
