In May of 2017 I finally followed my dream of teaching Abroad! I took a leave from Tigard-Tualatin School District to teach five months in beautiful Thailand in Southeast Asia! I taught third grade in an English Program at Anuban School in Khon Kaen, Thailand. I learned so much from my experience abroad teaching as well as being immersed in the Thai culture. Below is my experience. You can also to take a look at my blog as well: globalchicksite.wordpress.com. Enjoy!
This experience teaching abroad has totally impacted the way I now teach in my third grade classroom in Tigard, Oregon. I teach slower and more explicitly as well as making sure to integrate global competency into my daily curriculum. |
