As my South American Adventure gets closer and closer, I am so lucky to have the love and support from not only my family and friends, but also my colleagues. Fellow teachers have supplied me with a plethora of resources, strategies, and tips. One teacher has shared with me what her daughter is currently changing in Costa Rica. Her daughter's school is part of the World Leadership Schools. This week, she is taking a group of students to Costa Rica to help change lives! How inspiring. I am definitely going to enroll my future school in this program when I return home. What is better than traveling with kids ;)! Here is her daughter's blog, if you'd like to check it out for yourself!

Simply Making a Difference

Epiphany
Yesterday, as I was writing a paper for my TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) Course, I realized that I could be using this blog to help me accomplish and achieve my goals instead of simply fulfilling graduate course expectations. From this point on, you will see that everything posted on this page will be relating to my journey to South America in less than one year from now. Not only will I use this blog as a form of preparation, but I plan on also using it to share my experiences and adventures when I am teaching abroad. This can serve as a form of consistent communication for my friends and family, along with serving as entertainment and professional development for aspiring TEFL teachers.

Exposure Central
I must say that since I began taking this course, I have really grown as a teacher. Not only have I explored various teacher and classroom blogs, but I have already made the connections (even if it is just following a site/blog) that will continue to help me grow as a teacher in the future. With the upcoming year filled with firsts (including teaching in Argentina), exploring the net and the blogging world has only helped with my endeavors. I've diigo-ed many useful ESL sites along with begun following a classroom blog in Argentina! Just goes to show that the internet really DOES have everything!!
