Seattle is a great place for English teaching. That’s part of why we chose it. I’m currently teaching at 2 schools. In the morning I teach immigrants and refugees at a nearby community college, and in the afternoons I teach international students at a private language school. Both jobs are really fun.

At the private language school I got to design my own elective courses, so I’m teaching a class about dating, and another one on “mysteries”. That one sounds weird, I know. We’re reading a simplified john Grisham book and exploring all kinds of real-life mysteries. We just finished a unit on the Roswell UFO incident. Two thirds of my students believe the government is hiding aliens somewhere!
