What people think teaching abroad is: - It's a holiday, all day, everyday. - Repeat the same thing everyday in class. - You have a lavish life. - Language is always a problem. - Isolation is your life What it usually is: - The reality is, teaching abroad requires the same level of dedication and hard work as teaching in one's home country, if not more due to cultural and language barriers. - Different cultures have different learning needs and styles. A teacher needs to adapt and evolve according to the country they're in. - Often, teachers can earn more teaching abroad than in their home countries, especially when considering benefits like housing allowances and cost of living. - Many international schools teach in English, and learning the local language, while beneficial, isn't always necessary to effectively teach. - With technology, it's easier than ever to stay connected with loved ones. In fact, many find they build a new 'family' within the community of international teachers. It's not all pain. Remember you chose this life. And like everything we choose, it comes n a package.

NEP 2020's focus on eliminating English from early education is a step in the wrong direction. In a globalized world, English is a vital tool for communication, education, and career opportunities.

"I'm connected, Anke, but I can't turn on my video because there are b•mbs in our area." Got this DM during a Zoom immersion class the other day from a teacher trainee in Pa!e$tine. Big statement on the value of the immersion class to her, but I have no energy to be grateful. I am so angry. We as a society talk such a good game about saving languages, preserving heritage. But we care so little about saving THE PEOPLE WHO SPEAK THE LANGUAGES AND INHERIT THE HERITAGE. 😤 Here is a speaker of an endangered language - right, not even an Arabic speaker, not that it should matter - who is training to save her language, and doing so from a bunker. May we never forgive ourselves for what we, the US, are funding in the "cradle of civilization." May we never dismiss or justify the unrelenting horrors done in the name of wealth hoarding. May we understand that true education and liberation are inseparable. There is no point in saving a language if we have no interest in saving its speakers. There is no point in an education system if knowing truth is a capital crime. Cօlօnial education is an oxymoron. Profit-driven progress is an illusion. We decolonize our thinking, our systems, and our values immediately or we all perish in the fallout. 🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉
