Japan TEFL Glossary

admin — Sun, 02 Dec 2007 01:31:49 +0000

Japan TEFL.Com Glossary I’ve been here seemingly forever now, and I often reference people and places that I have described in the past. Not everyone here has been with me since the beginning, so I think it’s high time I posted a “Glossary” of all the things, people, and places I discuss in the Japantefl.com blog. [...]

Japan Paperwork update

The visa is ready in Japan, so I had [...]

The Drama Begins

admin — Sat, 02 Jun 2007 01:54:13 +0000

OK, Let’s start in the beginning. My TEFL training doesn’t begin for another week, so I guess this is a good time to bring you guys up to speed on the story so far: This all began about three weeks ago when one of my professors (who doesn’t even teach English) sent me an email [...]
