Well, this past weekend I (Cory) finished my TESOL Certification and attended a TESOL conference in Haeundae. For those of you who don’t know, TESOL stands for Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages. A TESOL certificate is good to have here, because if I end up being an English teacher then I get extra pay. Plus, it’s nice to have on a resume. The gentleman is in picture above is the CEO of the ASIAN EFL Journal who hosted the conference and offered the certification course. I learned a lot about tasked based learning, which is supposed to be really effective here in Korea. Also, I met some really interesting people, including a guy who used to run Track and Cross Country back in high school, and ran the same distance of races as I did. He runs a lot of 10k races here, and we may end up getting together some time to run.
