Almost Done!

Apologies that I have been so negligent in updating over the last week.  As most of you probably know, I'm finishing up my course and it's been quite a hectic time!  I taught my last lesson this evening as a student-teacher...whew!  It's been a long and challenging course, but I've learned SOO much ... about myself and about my abilities.  It's been a great ride ... even the bumps in the road were a learning experience.   


We have one last project to hand in that's due tomorrow afternoon.  After that, the only thing standing in my way for a Trinity CERT is an interview with a moderator who comes in from London to interview us.  Cross your fingers that it goes well on Friday afternoon :-)


My plan for the next four weeks while I'm still in Barcelona is to teach some classes at Oxford House (where I just had my course).  I am hoping to get experience teaching different levels of English learners.  I'm also going to try and get some private tutoring work.  There are a few websites here in Barcelona that I've been told about where I can post an ad for some work.  In addition, I want to take another course here that will give me more focus on teaching English in the business world.  I'm thinking that may be a great option for me when I move back home.


Sorry that I don't have any photos to share this evening, but I'm hoping to get out and about a bit more now that the course is over and I won't have so much computer face-time!


Thanks for checking in! xoxo
