Milestones
My road in life took a while to figure out.
Had passion for languages, but didn't know what to do with it.
Took all the language classes possible at university, although they didn't count towards my major.
Studied abroad in Germany for a year.
After college, got a job as an English teacher in Bordeaux, France.
Decided teaching wasn't for me and I got a desk job.
Hated sitting in a chair all day, so I did a course to learn how to teach.
Taught English in California, London, and Singapore.
Started teaching English in San Sebastian, Spain in 2012.

Advice for Getting Started
Here's the first step for professionals
Many people are transitioning to become English teachers nowadays, because they're bored with their desk jobs and want something more stimulating. The most important step is to do a course like the CELTA or TEFL, which will set you apart from the competition and land you that first job in the US or abroad. South America, China, Saudi Arabia, Africa... the world awaits you!
