Teacher's Friend

I was truly inspired to join Teacher's Friend by my amazing boss, Georgie. Her passion for education and hard work captivated me from the start. We connected instantly, sharing a common goal to make education better by sharing our experiences and resources for teaching.

Lived in the US as undocumented, always felt like a bird in a cage. Once in the airplane way back to my native country, Mexico, I didn't know where in life I was heading to. I applied for jobs in Mexico, but not really something I wanted to do or live paycheck to paycheck, and started teaching English to my neighbours, and realized this was something I enjoyed doing. Moreover, I wanted to travel the world and do something new. In a meditation course in Mexico, I met people that inspired me to teach English abroad. Months later, here I am! I never expected that one day I'll end up in Vietnam or Cambodia.

I am from the UK. I decided to come to Vietnam to teach English after a lot of research and found that Vietnam was the best place for me because it had a low cost of living, high wages, beautiful countryside (mountains, lakes, beaches, countryside, caves), and very friendly and welcoming people.
