Objective

My objective is to gain practical experience in teaching English as a foreign language to young adults. My goal is to eventually teach at the college level and I’m looking for experience that will be relevant to that. Travel has been the most positive experience of my life and I have also enjoyed my previous tutoring experience.  Now I have an opportunity to combine the two and get a more in-depth cultural experience at the same time.
