He didn't get the job. He may have thought that his statement would impress me, as a fellow Aussie. It didn't. He also mentioned cheap $5 a night guest houses as another motive for moving here.
I also have to deal with the new wave of young, hipster applicants, who now seem to form the majority. A French woman told me recently that she believed in total equity and her mission was to ensure that every student achieved the same result in her subject. There are a few schools in PP that would have jumped at the opportunity to employ her.
Old, fat, half white...

How can you make such an obviously chauvinistic, incorrect statement?
It should be.."Was she hot?'

This is great but it is missing entirely the particular shade of red I become when I spend time outside of PP in pretty much any season!Hanno wrote:

Your skin color is a factor but this is not what it boils down to! Ok so you have no proper quals, do a good TEfL and go the extra mile, do your due diligence so you actually know what you are talking about as far as that is possible as a beginner. Read as much as possible about educational approaches on the internet, dress well ( smart, ironed and well fitting clothes) and make sure you are not too hung over to interview well. Then interview well!AceFrehley wrote:Excellent. I suspect that is what it boils down to. If I do show up, it will be during the winter months here in the US as my skin color varies from winter to summer. Thanks for the best input yet!Alex wrote:There really is no such thing as "half white" around here, I'm afraid. Either you are, or you are not. The one who interviews you will be the judge.
Totally beast your trial lesson and then keep reading about education when you get the job, a TEFL can be good but it is a starting point, you are not yet a teacher, especially if you teaching small kids!
Good luck, we don't need more western teachers here, we need more good western teachers.

Relax, Ace.
You're as good as any.
