So I'm going to click that and I'm going to submit and then it should, yeah, it should show up. Awesome. Cool. And maybe just so we can see this better, I'm going to make myself a little bit smaller. Oh, why am I in the corner now? Okay. There we go. I like this better. Cool. So we have three people who participated and everybody is already certified. Great. Let's see if someone is here that is not yet certified. Four people, everybody certified. Great. Great. That's awesome. Cool. Yeah. Cool. Everyone certified here. So that is good news. That is awesome. Then today we'll be very helpful for you. But also, yes, if you're not certified, somebody just voted not certified that will also be very useful for you as well. And also we have this 30% off opportunity. So you can take advantage of that. Since you're not yet certified, no problem at all. So yeah, awesome. Five people voted so far. Good news. That is great. So I'm just going to keep this open for a little bit longer and maybe I come back to it later as well. So some people can vote who might join us a little bit later, but feel free to do that now. Oh, Tony says, I did receive an A. I would have liked to teach in the Middle East, but now. Okay. Yeah. Good question. And I hope I'll be able to answer that today. For you, I know that I am going to talk a little bit about the Middle East. So stay tuned for that. There will be my recommendations after my own research and what other Teflon teaching experts have said in terms of what are really good places and countries to teach English abroad in 2022. And one of the countries is actually in the Middle East. So stay tuned for that. Okay. Good. Then I'm just going to leave this there and we'll come back to it later. But really, really cool to see that you guys are mostly certified and those who aren't have the opportunity to take advantage of the 30% off if you want to. And then let's jump into today's slides. So what to know about teaching English abroad and online in 2022? Let's jump in. As always, feel free to leave your comments, your questions in the comment section on Facebook and also on YouTube, where many of you are watching from at the moment. At any time you can ask questions, there's also going to be a Q&A section at the end where you can tune in and ask any other questions that maybe are not related to today's topic. So don't hesitate.  So before I start, let me take one more sip of my coffee and then we get right into it. Hmm. Yep, that's good. Okay. So first off a little bit about me in case you don't know who I am yet. I have been doing the live sessions for ITTT for about over a year now, but we constantly get new viewers, regular viewers and new viewers. So I always like to introduce myself before I start. So my name is Linda. I am a travel writer and content creator under the name Linda goes East. I also run my own website at Linda goes East.com and on Instagram, you can also find me at Linda goes East. I'm originally from Germany and the US. My mom is German. My dad is American. And now I am based in South Korea for the past. I've been here for the past six and a half years. Before that I also taught English in China. I actually studied Chinese and university. I was very interested always in Asia. So I moved to China and then I moved over to South Korea and I've been here ever since. And yeah, my first year in Korea was a full-time English teacher at a international English speaking kindergarten. And then I transitioned into Teflon TESOL marketing with ITTT, which stands for international Teflon and TESOL training. And as many of you probably know, since you are already certified with ITTT, you can find us at TeflonCourse.net. And also on Instagram, if you're curious, just check us out at international Teflon training. What is ITTT? ITTT is a leading Teflon TESOL course provider worldwide. We offer a variety of different Teflon courses, online courses, in class courses, combined courses, a lot of different specialized courses. So a lot of things to choose from, depending on what your goal is for the teaching field or career. Hello. Lou Rodriguez is watching as well. Hello. How are you? Where are you watching from? Cool. So this is a little bit about myself. And now let's move on to today's topic. And let's really talk about this. Who is currently already teaching abroad? And maybe where are you teaching? And if you are not teaching abroad, where would you like to teach abroad? Or would you like to teach English online? Let me know. I don't have that as a banner, as a question. But yeah, let me know where would you like to teach? What's your situation right now? This way I can better answer any questions or tailor. You know, my answer is better to you guys when I understand a little bit more about your backgrounds. But yeah. Hi, Irma. Good to see you again as well. How are you? Thanks for tuning in. Yeah. I know a lot of people who actually taught English abroad and then due to the pandemic they moved back home or they moved to a different country. I also know a lot of people who actually started teaching English abroad during the pandemic. So yeah, everything is possible. Oh, you're in Puerto Rico. Awesome. Cool. Nice. I like that. Hi, Nalyn. Oh, I like that name. Nalyn, I hope I'm saying that right. I'm listening from the Bahamas. Oh, I'm so jealous of you all in the most beautiful places here. Oh, nice. That's definitely a place where I want to go. Maybe next year, maybe 2022 will be a good opportunity to visit that part of the world finally. So yeah, let's look at the first thing that I actually want to mention. Okay. Cool. Actually, before we do that, I see that a lot of new people have joined. So let's do this again. If you're already TEFL or TSOL certified, we just did that poll. But everyone who just joined now, why don't you also go ahead and vote. I'm going to share the link again. And you can vote if you are already certified or not. The link looks like this. You just click on that and then you just vote yes certified or no not certified. Could you do that? And then we'll see. I think a lot of new people just joined, so I want to get those in as well. Thank you. Yeah. Okay. Six people voted now. Not certified. Cool. Okay. Thank you. Thank you for voting. Great. All right. Don't be shy. Don't be shy. Try if you can. I know some people might not be able to. If you're on your phone, you probably can't really maybe click on it. I don't know. Sometimes it's weird, right? But yeah, I appreciate you voting. We can also do this again, maybe in a couple of minutes later at a later point. But maybe then we can have a look at it at the end of our session to see what the results are of today's poll. But yeah, it's very interesting and also helps me, like I said, in kind of tailoring to your needs. All right. Juliana here says, I would like to teach English in Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, and online. Nice. Yeah. So East Asia. Great. Irma is listening from the Philippines. Cool. Hi, Irma. Thanks for joining again. And Marina is from Canada. Awesome. Hi. Okay. All right. Good. Then let's go back to the slides here. And let's talk a little bit about the first point I want to mention. So I think that a lot of people who are interested in teaching abroad kind of are thinking that because of COVID and the pandemic, it's an impossible thing to do. And everything is closed and there's no demand right now. No, not true. So this first point I want to mention, this is actually from the UNESCO Institute for Statistics. They have found that the world actually needs almost 69 million new teachers to reach the 2030 education goals. So by 2030, the demand, there will be so many new students that we need almost 69 million new teachers to cover that demand. And a large part of that is English education. So despite the pandemic, despite COVID, the demand is still very, very high. And we're going to talk a little bit about that later on as well. Excuse me. When I'm going to talk about the specific countries and destinations that are hot right now where the demand is really high and why that is as well. So you want to stick around for that. But I just want to say that off the bat that the demand is still high. English teachers abroad and online obviously are still getting hired. And it's of course different now. Things have changed. And this is why we're doing this live session today to talk about the changes of the industry due to the pandemic, due to COVID, but also due to some other things that I'm also going to mention. All right. I just want to start off with that and tell you that it's still a very in demand industry. Still, even teaching abroad is still very in demand. And compared to this year, 2021, 2022 looks a lot better in terms of actually going abroad to teach. It looks a lot better. It still, it wasn't impossible in 2021, but it was, you know, a lot of new restrictions came around. It was very quick. Those sudden changes, a lot of governments, they were like all over the place. There were no, you know, cohesive. It was not very transparent about all the regulations and things that are going on. 2022 in that aspect looks a lot better, a lot better. Okay. What one big change. And I think everybody is aware of that, that for 2021, if you want to go and teach abroad, you might need documentation certifying COVID free status. So this could either be, you need to take PCR tests before, you know, entering the country, same as tourists. It could also be, also some countries have, require tourists and people, foreigners entering their country to be fully vaccinated. So you might also have to provide proof and documentation of being fully vaccinated. This, however, is still, even still now kind of in the early stages, right? And a lot of governments, a lot of countries are now developing these new regulations and entry regulations for tourists and for also migrant workers, teachers, expats. So this is obviously not something that you can just pinpoint and say, this is how it is, because it's different for a lot of countries. In every country, they have different regulations right now. Some don't have any regulations yet. They're completely closed. Some opened up already. They have regulations and some have stricter regulations than others. And it also depends on your citizenship or the country where you are coming from. So it's very, it's not very see through, right? So you need to do your own research always and check with embassies as well, because I put this little disclaimer here, which says on regulations, regulations are changing frequently always to your research and check with official authorities, right? We are not an official authority. So you might want to check with the embassies of the country where you want to go to or your own, like the embassy of the place of the country where you want to go to in your countries, they will give you the most up to date information that fits for your case. But this is probably something that we're going to see a lot more off in 2022 when it comes to international travel or just moving internationally, so to a different country. And I wanted to share with you this interesting map right here, which is a map. What does it say exactly? It shows how vaccination passports are applied worldwide, okay? So for example, in the blue, the dark blue countries, they have extended use of vaccination passports nationwide. So these countries have more stricter regulations when it comes to COVID and vaccination passports. So they might have might have certain restrictions for unvaccinated people, right? So this obviously is not specifically for teachers, teaching going abroad to teach, but it's kind of going to help you to get an understanding of if you, for example, want to go to Korea right here, they have an extended use of vaccination passport. So if you are not vaccinated, you might not be able to go, you might not be able to enjoy life to the fullest, have all the advantages that non-vaccinated people have. So those are dark blue colors, for example, right? And then you can see the different colors, what they mean, but this is just a trend that we see right now. So those countries are enforcing those regulations more than others. So that's something to be aware of. Like I said, always check with the authorities, right? And I'm going to share this map with you. I'm just going to share the link with you so you can have a look because it is interactive. So you can actually hover over the countries and then get more information as you kind of browse the map. So I just wanted to share this with you. It's from hellosave.ca. This is the link. And it's called the vaccination passport map. So if you're interested, you can have a look at that to get more details. But yeah, this is just something kind of to take into consideration that definitely if you want to go to those blue colored countries, you 100% need to be vaccinated probably for sure. And then the other ones just take that with a grain of salt, right? Hope that makes sense. But yeah, good. So this is definitely something that we see not only for teaching abroad, obviously, but international travel in general, vaccine passports and proof of vaccination and COVID free statuses. The next point kind of adding on to that, that if you want to go and teach abroad, you might have to spend two weeks or maybe one week. It depends on the country in quarantine, on arrival. And this is still something that we still see today. What has changed though, compared to 2021 actually, that now more and more countries are recognizing vaccine, vaccinated travelers, right? They give benefits to people who are vaccinated as to they can skip quarantine or the quarantine time will be shorter. So that's also something that we see a lot of countries are doing now. Also a lot of countries, for example, I'm in Korea and they just recently signed a deal with Singapore, where they created a travel bubble. So Singapore and Korea now have this agreement that they mutually allow vaccinated tourists from each place. So if you're vaccinated in Korea, you can travel to Singapore without quarantine, without any problems. And vice versa, if you're from Singapore and you're fully vaccinated, you can now travel to Korea without any problems. So we're going to see a lot more of that, definitely a lot more advantages for people who are fully vaccinated in terms of skipping quarantine or shorter quarantine time. But some countries don't do that. They don't care if you're vaccinated or not, you still need to spend the full two weeks or 10 days or one week in quarantine. So again, always check with your with official authorities and do your research and adding to that for a lot of people who are teachers. I know that in Korea, for people who arrive in Korea, teachers are actually able to quarantine at home in their teacher home, which is completely free. So you don't have to spend any money for quarantining. However, there are other countries where you are required to quarantine in a hotel. And that is oftentimes very expensive and you need to cover the costs. So again, varies from country to country. I know that that was the case in Vietnam, for example, and a lot of other places where you need to spend quarantine in a hotel, probably near the airport. It's like designated from the government where you need to stay and how much you need to pay for. And most schools, I heard that some schools that was specifically for Vietnam, they do like a 50 50 thing where they cover 50% of the quarantine costs for you. The other half is paid by the teacher, or they pay the quarantine fees for you, but then deducted from your first salary or first two salaries or things like that. So it depends on where you're going. So again, your own research is involved here. So that's I think also another thing worth mentioning that probably teaching English in 2022 involves a lot more research, a lot more phone calling to authorities to embassies and things like that, right? Another thing. All right. Okay, next point. Employers are more selective in choice of who to hire. So because and there's two things kind of because the first thing is because of these new regulations and the quarantine and things like that, it's kind of employers, they need to go through more hoops in order to hire teachers from abroad. It's a little bit more complicated right now because of these new regulations. So they are more selective. They are definitely going to hire the best of the best, basically, because it's money and it's more time, the hiring process right now. But also, because there are a lot more applicants for 2022 compared to 2021. And that has kind of two reasons. So 2021, there were fewer teaching positions also in the big government funded programs that we see like Epic in Korea, Jet in Japan, they had kind of lower intake numbers in 2021. And now for 2022, they kind of had have their intake numbers higher again. But now all those people who couldn't go in 2021 are also going to apply for 2022. So you're going to have a lot more applicants, especially in really popular countries and countries who are now open again in 2022. So two things. Employers receive a lot more applications and they are more selective because it takes more time and a little bit more effort to hire people. So that's something to note. And I'm going to give you some tips later on what you can do to stand out and to have better chances to stand out from all of those other applicants and what you can do to have better chances. That's going to come in just a little bit later, but it's coming. Yeah. And feel free to ask any questions if you have some in between. So that I know that I'm making sense. Because sometimes I know it might be a little bit rambling or not sure. I just want to make sure that everybody's understanding what I'm trying to say. But yeah, I hope that we are good. So next point will be that teaching English online continues to grow in popularity. And we've seen this since really the start of the pandemic, how teaching English online really just grew and was through the roof. A lot of in-class teachers had to transition to online. And many of them liked it. So they also started teaching online. They might have gone back to the classroom, but also now teach online a little bit on the side. Myself included, I actually started teaching English online this year in March also due to the pandemic. Because before that, I had a lot of in-person classes that because of COVID were all canceled. And so I started teaching English online. And it was really a lot of fun. It was great. It has been great. I'm still doing it now. So I think a lot of teachers are doing the same thing. And there's so many teaching platforms that you can choose from. But I think that's the next point as well there. If you watched, I think two weeks ago, my live session, it was about the things happening in the ESL industry in China, which plays a huge role here. So in July, August of this year, the Chinese government announced that basically English online classes were no longer will be able to continue. So no English teachers from abroad will be able to work for Chinese online teaching companies that has many different reasons. And if you're interested and want to know more about this issue, I think I'm going to talk a little bit more about that in just a second. But I'm really going in depth into that whole situation in that live that I did two weeks ago. So if you're interested in that, go check that out. I'm also providing in that live a Google sheet of 20 non-Chinese teaching platforms where you don't have to worry about getting pay cuts or getting just sacked from one day to another. So you can check that out. But basically, so a lot of online teachers, especially from North America and countries outside of China just lost their online teaching opportunity from one day to the next. That's what happened because now a lot of Chinese online teaching platforms are no longer able to hire people from abroad. And so that kind of was a huge blow in the online teaching world. But it's gotten a lot better now. A lot of these companies have kind of restructured and there are still so many other online teaching platforms to choose from. You don't necessarily need to teach on those Chinese platforms. So it still grows in popularity online teaching. So that's what I'm trying to say. See, and this is where I go kind of rambling and off topic. So that's what we're trying to avoid here. All right. Yeah, so this is the next topic. Yeah, usually. And that's what we've said in many, many live sessions before. That's what we always recommend to other teachers that China was like this huge, amazing ESL wonderland, too many vacant positions to fill with teachers. It was literally if you wanted to teach English abroad. If you were non native English speaker native speaker didn't matter where you were from, you could go to China, you could find a position and you'd be set. But this due to that new regulation, which started out with online teaching is now also kind of drizzling, dribbling into teaching in person in teachers. And like I said, I talk a lot more in depth about that in the other live.  But yeah, for 2022 and from then on, it just doesn't look like it's the ESL wonderland it used to be. So very that's a huge change, I feel like, because China always if you watched some of my live sessions before, I always talk about China as being really this incredible place for English teachers. And now it just really doesn't seem like it's that anymore. It's it's a lot more difficult to get hired there now. And most especially private language schools are very much struggling. There's a lot of new things that they need to do in order to hire foreign teachers. So it's a lot more complicated now. And a lot of people actually a lot of teachers who were teaching in China after the new regulations they left, they went back, they went elsewhere. So but again, it's something and I also said that two weeks ago in my live session, it's something that we still need to kind of keep an eye on. There's still a lot of things that are just not clear what that's actually means. The regulations, how they are going to be implemented exactly. So at this point, we can just kind of watch and be cautious. But at this moment, I would if you're not already in China, I probably would not recommend going there at this point until this is all figured out and more clear.   And you have to pack and leave from one day to the next, which can be very scary. And I don't want that to happen to anyone. So that will be my advice in terms of China. Yeah, I'm like I said in my life in my other life, I'm keeping an eye on the situation. I'm talking with a lot of people. And I'm going to definitely give you an update maybe in two, three, four months, we're going to have much clearer idea, idea, I can't talk idea, what it really means for China and what the future of ESL teaching in China looks like for 2022. For right now, I would say maybe choose a different place until they have figured their stuff out. Okay. Yeah, let's see. This is a little bit slow. Okay, yeah. So also some changes I want to talk about here are that some teaching programs are actually no longer operating. What are what teaching programs? Am I talking about? I'm talking about those government funded programs that a lot of countries have in place. So for example, the Jet program in Japan is one of the biggest ones. And also the Epic program in Korea, they hire English teachers, foreigners from abroad, and then place them into schools around Korea and Japan to be teachers. And those programs are really, really great. Obviously, they are also quite competitive. A lot of people apply for them. But they are great, especially for first time teachers abroad because they offer a lot of support. They have like two weeks orientation. They have this really great community. They have this really good support system for their teachers. And so that's why they're also very popular. Some teaching programs are actually no longer operating due to the pandemic. And that is the one program that I know is no longer operating is the talk program, which is also in Korea. And this program used to be very appealing for people who have completed an associate's degree, so two years of university, a degree of two years in a university, and younger people who maybe are looking for like a gap year thing. So they are no longer operating. So that program is completely gone now and only epic in Korea is left. That is a big change. Huge blow for a lot of people. It's very sad. And then the other program that is also currently not operating is the English open stores program in Chile, which also was a really great program, especially in the Latin American, South American region, because there are really not a lot of programs there at all. This might actually be the only one. I'm not 100% sure. But this definitely was one of the very few programs of this kind that we're operating. And it's currently on ice. So it's not no longer, it's not gone completely. But it's still not accepting new teachers at the moment due to the pandemic. So this started, I think in 2020, all throughout 2021, they were not doing anything. And still, they are not doing anything. I just recently checked their website. They are not back in operation yet. So yeah, that's something also definitely to note that some teaching programs actually do no longer exist. But the other ones, the big ones, the popular ones are still working and existing. And so yeah, I actually know a lot of people who started teaching in Korea with EPIC also during the pandemic. So yeah, however, that the JET program, I think in 2021, this year, or 2022, I can't remember, they had lower intake numbers. So it's something that I mentioned in the beginning. A lot of schools or programs had lower intake numbers in this year or the previous year. And now for 2022, they drive their intake numbers up again. So more positions, but also more applicants are expected. Actually, I read an article where a school now is getting four times more applicants than before. So the demand is like four times higher now. You have this whole bunch of people who want to go and teach abroad. So something to think about. So these, this is very interesting now. So these are the high countries with a high demand for teachers in 2022. I read many different articles, and those four countries were always mentioned. So the first one is Taiwan. They have a very high demand. They actually, they also recently just opened up again. They're up, they're also hiring. We have a recruitment partner called Reach to Teach Recruiting. They are recruiting heavily for Taiwan and also for South Korea. And they actually stopped recruiting for China. So you can see the changes here as well. And a lot of people who were previously interested in China are now kind of going towards Taiwan because they also speak Chinese. They have a same history, shared histories, shared background, similar culture. So Taiwan is a great alternative for people who were previously maybe really stuck on going to China. South Korea as well. The Epic program is in full operation. Also private schools because Epic is for public schools, but also a lot of private schools in Korea are hiring. And actually the hiring of teachers in Korea never stopped. Even throughout the pandemic, like I said, I know many people who actually got here during the pandemic and were hired and started teaching, which is really funny because all they know is Korea during the pandemic, which is really funny. Everybody's wearing these masks all the time and they actually meet people, some of their colleagues that they've never seen without their mask on. It's just wild. But anyway, also Columbia has a huge demand because they actually, at the beginning of the pandemic, they had, they struggled a lot. So a lot of teachers, English teachers there, they just up and left on humanitarian flights. Actually, they left the country at the beginning of the pandemic. There was like this huge thing where a lot of teachers, foreigners, foreign teachers just up and left. And now there's a huge demand in Columbia for qualified teachers. And actually, oh, I wanted to put this up, I think, the numbers for Columbia. They also have a high vaccination rate. So they have it more under control now. And a lot of schools are looking for teachers. And I read several articles and several people, people who have language schools there and recruiters from there, they are like, they have like 600 open vacancies. So anyone who's coming to Columbia right now and wants to teach, they've got a job 100% certain. It's what they were saying. So yeah, Columbia is great high demand right now for 2022. Also in the Middle East, this is for who is asking in the beginning about the Middle East. I hope you're still here. I hope you're still watching Tony here, who wants to teach in the Middle East. Oman is very high in demand right now. They have very high demand for teachers. They also have a very high vaccination rate. And they are looking for teachers at the moment, very, very high demand. So those are the four top countries to look out for in 2022. I think it's a good mix because you have two countries in Asia, Asia, which is the biggest ESL region. And then you have one in the Middle East and one in South America. So I think maybe there's something for everybody here. But as always, and I should put this claimer here as well, do your own research in terms of the requirements, what you need in order to go there, et cetera, et cetera. But those are the four that are really looking for teachers right now very desperately. And now, I think this is almost the last point now. So tips for teaching English in 2022. What can you do? Now that we've heard all of this information, we know that there are a lot more teachers teaching this year. What can you do kind of to stand out from the crowd? So one thing, and I know that's why I did the poll, let's go back to the poll just one second. Here in our audience, we have 57% who's certified, 53% who is uncertified. So if you're uncertified, definitely you want to get certified. Or if you are certified upgrade your existing certification to 120 hours plus. So how can you do that? 120 hours is like the international minimum, the basic requirement pretty much for TEFL certification. You want to have at least 120 hours. And this is also why our 120 hour course is the most popular. But if you're already certified, you already have 120 hours, what you can do now is look at different TEFL and TESOL specialization courses. And let me just get the links for you so you can, you know exactly what I'm talking about. So this is teaching English to young learners. This is teaching business English. We also now have a grammar and phonology course. We also have a academic planning course. So we actually just got a bunch of new different courses that you can check out and they will really kind of boost your resume and help you stand out. So let me just share that with you. And again, those courses, you can use the 30% off link on those. So that's why I already added the discounted part at the end of the link, which looks like this.  So on this page, you will find all the specialized courses that we offer and that we recommend. And if you have specialized courses on your resume, this is really going to make you stand out from the other applicants a bit. If you are not yet certified, and you also want to get, you know, specialized courses and better training, you can do TEFL and TESOL course bundles, which we also offer. So for example, here, I'm also going to share that with you so you can have a look. But it's basically basically bundle courses so you can buy or purchase the 120 hour course plus the specializations already together, which can actually save you some money as well. So let me just also post that here in the comments so you can have a look at the bundles. And again, you can use 30% off of those bundles as well, which is also going to save you even more money. So there you go. Basically, the more TEFL hours training you have, obviously the better, right? So that is the first point to get your TEFL and TESOL certification in check, specialized courses that make you stand out. You can also enhance your resume with professional development. So there's a lot of other options you can do. For example, we also have an observed teaching practice course where you actually get a certificate for, yeah, observed teaching practice.  And you also get a certificate for that. We also have that. But you can also do volunteer teaching in your community, for example. You can also look at a couple of different MOOCs. So those are free online courses that you can find. If you Google like MOOCs, you'll see there's a lot of websites like Coursera or Udemy, or a lot of these websites, they will have free, really valuable courses for your personal and professional development. You can also get certain language certificates. And this is definitely useful. I would say useful for both non-native and native English speakers. But for example, if you are a non-native English speaker, you definitely want to get an English language certificate. So a TEFL and IELTS or a Cambridge certificate of a very high level that proves that you are very, very good in English. And if you are a native English speaker, obviously you don't need to take an English language certificate. But what I would say, what would probably really look impressive and helpful, for example, if you want to go and teach in Korea, if you already had Korean language skills, and maybe a Korean language certificate, obviously this will not apply for everybody. And it takes a couple of years, probably, to master that and to get one. But that's something maybe you can work towards. And that would look really, really impressive on a resume, right? Yeah. And then also what you can do is to boost your teaching skills is to go into online teaching. So what a lot of people are doing actually now during the pandemic, or what they did this year, was doing a lot of online teaching so that you can gain experience and also money on the side, right? And then for 2022, you can put that on your resume as teaching experience and like, you know, some management skills, et cetera. And that will look really, really good on your resume as well. And then another tip I want to give you is to work with different recruiters and different experts. So we at ITTT always provide lifetime job support for all of our TEFL and TESOL course graduates. So if you have a TEFL certificate from ITTT, you probably know what I'm talking about. You have access to lifetime job support. We will help you find a job in the place where you want to be. We also work with a lot of different recruitment agencies. We have partners who are more than happy to help our graduates also find jobs in other countries. So that also includes that. And then also what you can do for yourself is look in different TEFL forums.  There are a lot of specific like country or region specific forums as well as TEFL blogs. So you find a lot of TEFL teachers who are teaching abroad blogging about their experience, like what I do, for example, on lindegosis.com. I share a lot of content about teaching English in Korea and also Facebook groups. Again, there's a lot of country specific groups. So you find, for example, groups like English teachers in Korea, English teachers in Japan, things like that. So if you join those groups, it will also be a really great benefit. They would give you tips. They also maybe share job postings in there and just local little hacks and tricks how to find jobs and how to get hired there. So that's also something I definitely recommend. And I always mention Facebook groups because I think they're very helpful. Okay, I think this concludes my slides. Let me just double check. But yes, so now what I want to do is open up Q&A. So, and this is just a reminder for the 30% link so you can scan the QR code or again, just sign up via the link that I shared in the beginning. But let me just share it again. And then you can ask me your questions. If you have any questions, if something that I talked about was not clear, because I know sometimes maybe I don't make sense, feel free to just ask.  So feel free to ask away. And then maybe we can also have a look at the poll again and see the final results. And maybe I'll just share the mentee link also again, so that you can vote. But yeah, let's see, where is it? Oh, here. So I'm just going to share this again, the mentee link. So you can vote if you haven't voted yet, if you are or are not TEFL certified, you just go to this link. And then we'll see some results here and we can check the final results before we turn off for today. All right. Yeah, I think somebody just voted. Now it's seven people. Okay, cool. Thank you so much for voting. Let's see. So yeah, I think just a little bit of a recap. Teaching English in 2022, I think it's going to be in some aspects probably easier than this year because now a lot more countries are open again. Oh, nice. 50-50 now. Somebody voted. Are you already TEFL and TESL certified? Okay, great. Yeah, so it's going to be easier in some aspects, but also I think you're going to need a lot more documentation. You definitely need to be vaccinated probably if you want to go abroad. So those things you need to think about and just say it's more competition and the China thing for sure. Maybe if you were set on China, maybe not now. Now is maybe not a good time, but yeah. So this was it. Let me know your thoughts. What do you think? What are you thinking? Was there something new that you learned today? I hope there was at least a little bit, something new you learned and maybe something that surprised you or something that you heard you want to add. Feel free. Feel free to add any comments and yeah, keep voting. So now we're at 50-50. Awesome. Yeah. So yeah, those of you who want to teach English abroad or online and you're not yet certified, I highly recommend taking advantage of this 30% off opportunity. We only share that during our live sessions. I always say that, but it's true. It's true. So yeah, I recommend checking that out. No pressure. You don't have to fill out your application today. You can also take your time and browse. We have so many different course options. It can kind of get overwhelming. So that's why we also have a great support team. You can reach out to us directly and we will help you find the best course that fits your needs and your goals for what you want to do, where you want to go, or if you want to teach online. We also have a lot of great online courses like online courses specifically for teaching online. We also have online courses for then going abroad. So definitely. Hi, Leonore. Yeah, I just saw your question from earlier. I didn't forget. I'm so sorry you were asking about joining the TEFL course in Alexandria, November 21. And I think if the date is on the website, then it should be running, but what you want to do is double check with our team and you can email them. Let me just get you that email address if you don't have it yet. So you can email our team and then house teaching in Egypt. One second. Because yeah, sometimes that's the other thing with in class. A lot of our training centers are definitely running, but you never know the developments and what is, you know, the regulations are always changing. So you just want to double check with them. The course is definitely taking place. One second. Okay. Yeah. And this goes for everybody. So if you have any questions about more like course details and stuff or anything else, you can reach out to courses at tesol minus tesol.com. So Leonore, that's what I would recommend doing for the in class course in Egypt. And actually house teaching in Egypt Um, you know, it's actually not one of the most popular destinations for some reason. I have been to Egypt actually, but not for teaching, but for travel. And it was great. I had a wonderful time and I actually really, really want to go back. And I don't have too much information about what it's like teaching there. I have not personally taught there. But I feel like it's sort of an underdog destination. So we do regularly have teaching positions for Egypt on our site. And you can also browse those. I think it's, uh, hold on. And this is also interesting for everybody, our job section. So you can check out our job section and look for jobs on there, like this. And you can also read more about Egypt on our website in general. But I would definitely recommend reaching out to the support team at courses at tesol minus Teflon. They will give you more information about the current situation there. So please do that. But yeah, Egypt is a great, a beautiful country. I really want to go back. I was so impressed when I, when I traveled there and that's also a long time ago already. Really want to go back there. So yeah. Okay. Good question. Leonor says, thank you, Linda. I've been in contact with them already. It's just that I was not sure, but I definitely love traveling. Yeah.  And there's this one girl and she was recently in Egypt or I think she is in Egypt still. So they had a blast. They did a big trip there. So it's definitely open to tourists. It seems like. So I'm sure that they also hire teachers at the moment. But yeah, that's unfortunately all I can tell you about each of that the moment. But yeah, good that you were in contact already with our support team. That's really great. So yeah. Awesome. What made you interested in Egypt? That's interesting because it's like really not not a lot. I think you're the first person who's ever asked about Egypt like on the live stream, you know, it's not super popular. Last, last week was really interesting because I did a Q&A and we also did a poll and it was like so many people were interested in Japan. So Japan was really a winner last week. It was super popular, which was really like surprising, but not really surprising, but that so many different people were interested in Japan. It was interesting. Okay, let's go back here. And then yeah, I'm just going to take a couple more minutes. So if you still have a question, feel free to ask it now.  So if you have any questions, feel free to ask. And then also again, if you have any questions, you can always reach out to us via email. This is the email address courses at tesaw minus tefl.com. And you can also reach out to me directly if you want on Instagram at linda goes ease. And I'll try my best and answer your questions on there too. Or if there's something, you know, more personal or just a question you don't want to ask in this open chat, feel free to, yeah, feel free to ask. Juliana, thank you so much for watching every week. She says, thank you so much for sharing this information with us. I have learned a lot from it. Thank you. I'm so happy about that. Thank you. And Leonor says it's the one place that I have not visited from the country's offering courses this year. Oh, cool. Wow. Then you also love traveling. That's great. Yeah. Cool. Definitely, definitely. So I hope it's running. I really hope it's running for you. I want you to be able to go. Cool. All right. Let me see. I'm just going to wait a couple more seconds here because there is always a delay between me talking and then you actually seeing it. So just want to make sure that everybody has the opportunity to ask a question before I sign off. And then just final reminder, please don't forget to like and subscribe before I go. And then I'll see you again next week, hopefully, probably, maybe again on Friday, like the usual day. Good. Then I think I'm ready. There seems to be no more questions. But still, I mean, if you're watching the replay and you have any questions, you can always put that in the comments and we'll get back to you later. That is totally no problem. Also, do check out our playlist on YouTube and on Facebook for previous live sessions. There's so much information. Like I said, we've been doing these live sessions every week now for over a year. So there are a lot of live sessions, a lot of information out there that's still relevant and helpful and useful. So pick the topics that you're interested in most and watch that. And then yeah, I'm going to see you again next week. It was a fun session. Thank you so much for joining.

Thank you so much. You're very welcome. Awesome. All right then. Have a great rest of the week, rest of the evening and day, wherever you are. And then I'm going to see you again later. Okay. All right. Bye.


From the heart of the jungle comes a savage cry of victory. This is Tarzan, Lord of the Jungle. From the black core of dark Africa, land of enchantment, mystery and violence, comes one of the most colorful figures of all time. Transcribed from the immortal pen of Edgar Rice Burroughs. Tarzan, the bronze-dewight son of the jungle. And now on the very words of Mr. Burroughs, the story of jungle smoke. There was no more than the usual commotion in the jungle as Tarzan wrote easily in the back of Tantor the elephant. But a thousand miles from this tranquil scene, a man worked swiftly, cautiously, not realizing that his actions would soon bring him face to face with the lord of the jungle. The man was Harry Douglas, whose clever hands were busy packing a parachute. He smiled to himself as he folded the white silk because he knew this parachute would never open. The smile vanished as the door to the hangar where he worked slid back. Hangar at this hour of night? Oh, oh, Eli. Going back to bed. I'm just getting ready for tomorrow. You might have told me instead of letting me worry where you were, I thought maybe the police had done that. The police don't know anything. By the time they do, nobody's gonna know where we are. I hope you're right. I hope it won't be necessary to actually use these parachutes. Don't you worry, Eli. This is my part of the show. You got hold of the diamonds. It's my job to get them out of Africa. And the sooner the better. I'm getting nervous, Harry. Just relax. I know what I'm doing. I hope so. Well, if we're gonna take off in the morning, you better get some sleep. I will. Don't you worry about me. Just worry about yourself, Eli. Some 5,000 feet above him in the hot African sky, Tarzan saw the small twin-engine Gemini winging northward. His primitive instincts resented this intrusion of civilization, even so far above his beloved jungle. And what would have been his thoughts had he been able to look into the cockpit and see what was happening? The hand of Harry Douglas slipped stealthily to the throttle, deliberately eased it back. The engine slowed and faltered. Harry, what's the matter? The engine's what's happening? I don't know. They're conking out. We'll have to jump. Jump? Harry, I can't. The diamonds will lose the diamonds. That's better than losing your life. The strong box is in the valise. There's no time to get it out now. Jump, Eli. I'll try to hold her on course until you're clear. Open the door. Jump. Harry, I'm scared. I can't. You've got to jump, Eli. Jump. So long, pal. Now then, I'll just pull out of this dive, I'll give her a little throttle and... And what? It's jammed. The throttle's jammed. Turn over. You have to turn over. There's no use. I gotta jump. This parachute, you better open. As he sat on the back of Tantor the elephant, Tarzan watched the tiny speck of the body fall from the plane. Held his breath, waiting for the parachute to open. But it never did. The tiny speck became larger, then was swallowed silently in some distant part of the jungle. He saw too the plane diving out of control and the second figure jump clear. But this time the white silk billowed out and Tarzan raced toward the spot where the man had floated earth. He found Harry Douglas swinging from his shroud lines, which were caught in a tree. Stay back. I have a gun. I kill.  I kill. I understand, Tarman Ghani. You... you speak English? I speak many tongues, including those of my brother's Man Ghani, the ape, and Tantor the elephant. Well, then cut me down. But don't forget this gun. I don't trust a savage no matter how he talks. Oh, Tantor, do you hear? He has a gun. He threatens Tarzan with a gun. Tarzan? Yes. And when I come as a friend, I do not like to be threatened. But if I don't cut you down, sheath of the Panther will... I was wondering how long I'd have to hang there. You should know better than to fly your craft over this part of Africa. I... well, my compass went out. I was lost. Oh, say, talk about heat. That's the hottest breeze I ever felt. And for good reason if your civilized nostrils could only tell you. Huh? What do you mean? What's happening? The crash of your plane set the jungle on fire. The animals are stampeding. Oh, quickly! Let Tantor swing you to his back before we're crushed. No, he'll kill me. Why, that elephant could... Tantor! No, no, no. Don't let him touch me. No, no, no. He'll not hurt you. Hang on while I swing up behind you. No! Run, Tantor! Run! Back there! The flames! I can see them. You brought this destruction to the jungle. If it overtakes us, there'll be justice in your punishment. How much of a chance do we have? That's up to the wind. Faster, Tantor! Faster! Faster! There was one hope to reach the banks of the Ubangi River. Although Tarzan instinctively distrusted Harry Douglas, he could not desert him. From out of the previously silent, almost motionless wilderness, now poured every sort of beast and bird. The leopard and the lion, the hyena and the jackal, the redditary enemies fleeing side by side. Behind them, the wall of flame leaped forward. Tarzan! The river! I can see it!  You'll live now to see another day. Oh, that's one ride I'll never forget. Oh, how long will it be until the fire dies out? Kudu, the sun is already hidden by black clouds. There'll be rain in the short while. Yeah, that's good. That's fine. Real camp on the other side of the river. In the morning, I'll take you to Garara, the English settlement. I'm not going to Garara. And neither are you. If you want my help, you'll go where I say. And listen, Tarzan, I've got to find where my plane crashed. Why? There's nothing left of it. Not quite nothing. There are some things that don't burn. Well, what sort of thing is that? That's my secret, Tarzan. But I'm going back to the plane. You wouldn't last one day in the jungle. Oh, no. You seem to do all right. I was raised by the apes. This is my home, just as the great city is yours. You're taking me back, Tarzan. Maybe a slug from this 45 wouldn't be much good against a lion, but against you? Well, you're only human. I'm not afraid of your gun, but I am curious to know what reason prompts your foolhardy desire. Never mind the reason. Just do what I say. Tarzan will take you back. But you'll wish you'd gone to Garara instead. Whatever's left of the plane should be someplace nearby. Uh, it better be. I can't go much farther. But don't think I'm too tired to pull this trigger. I never underestimate an opponent. Look, there it is. There's the pile of twisted metal you think so important. Yeah, that's it all right. Come on. Yeah, here's the steel handle from the valise. That means the strongbox is around here somewhere.  I could have killed you. Yeah, you could have. Now that we're here and I know the way back, I don't need you anymore. Oh, you think you've learned the ways of the jungle so soon? I just think maybe you shouldn't live to know why I came back here. Without me, you'll never get back alive. It's burnt over all the way. The only animals we came across were dead. There are other things to fear besides the animals. Look, across the ground behind you. Natives! Must be a hundred of them. Put your gun away. They don't look very friendly to me. Do what I say. We'll go to meet them. You're not okay but no funny business. Get rid of them. I don't want them hanging around. Come on and keep your gun from sight. Go on, Gunny. Tarzan approaches you in peace. To come in peace. Advance. Tarzan does not know the mark of your tribe. We are Ramabu and Okate is our chief. He has sent for you and your company. Tarzan has other matters to attend to but I send your chief my greetings. You come with us. Tarzan has spoken. He has sent his greetings. What are they jibbering about? I can't make it out. What I've heard of the Ramabu's and what I heard I don't like. Why do they look at us that way? Let's get out of here. Let's make a run for it. No, it's too late. They have spears and the fire has destroyed the protection of the jungle. Two natives went down with bullets through their hearts. More fell to the flashing steel blade of Tarzan's knife. But the odds were too great against them. Eventually Tarzan and his crazed companion were born to the ground and bound securely with leather thongs. Then they were marched many miles to the Ramabu village which had escaped the fire. In the center of the village Tarzan saw something which gave him his first indication of what was in store. Tarzan, what are they going to do to us? Look over there, lying on the ground. It's just a dead goat. What does that mean? The goat is dead, yes, but from the marks and wounds I know the animal was tortured to death. You mean they get some kind of kicks from doing things like that? They only use animals as substitutes when they have been unable to capture any humans. What? You mean that they... oh no, they wouldn't not to us? We may still get a chance to fight again. That must be the chief over there. Talk to him Tarzan, tell him. Yes, tell him I know where to get him a million dollars worth of diamonds if he'll let us go. Oh, so that's what you went back to the plane for? Yeah, but he can have them. I just want to... Tarzan. What? Look beside him, the strongbox. He's already got the diamonds. You want to keep us tied up on this dirty shack? Why don't they get it over with? You know as much as I do. Oh, cut to their chief only said we'd know our fate at sundown. Oh, the diamonds. All the careful planning. How to get them. How to fly them out of Africa without getting caught. And how to kill Eli so I'd have them all for myself. They had it worked out perfect. No crime is ever perfect. We'll soon know where your crime has led us both. I come to tell you your fate. Speak, Ocutta. But remember you speak to Tarzan, lord of the jungle. No longer lord of jungle. Arzan and friend must die at ceremonial dance. Why chief of the Womabo? Why must we die? Iron bird that fall from sky set jungle on fire. My people's cattle destroyed.  You be sacrificed at feet of idle then maybe cattle come to life again. The idle cannot bring back your cattle. We see everything ready. You will be tied to stake and soon dance of death will begin. They can't do it. Not like this. Not in cold blood. Is it any different from the way you killed your friend? I have no sympathy for you. But I would rather die under the fangs of new mother lion than at the hands of the Gomongani. What can we do? You gotta think of something Tarzan. Tarzan has been thinking. Cata Tarzan call. You ask if Ocutta is sure that his idle will restore the cattle. Idle often angry. Not do as we wish even after sacrifice. Tarzan can do what your idle cannot. If Ocutta gives Tarzan the shiny stones from the iron box, the Womabo will have two head of cattle for everyone they lost. How Tarzan do this? Ocutta knows the word of Tarzan will not be broken. I will do what I say before the next full moon. Will Tarzan pledge not bring back with him band of Ascari or any other men? Tarzan will pledge what Ocutta asks. Sure. Yes, chief.  You stay here. Hostage.  Go now, Tarzan. No. No.  Don't leave me with these savages. Tarzan. Tarzan. Tarzan. Tarzan was in the jungle free again but not free of his promise. It was late the next day that he heard what he hoped for. It was a tribe of apes. Tarzan dropped from the trees and faced their leader. The bull ape lunged at this strange intruder but Tarzan moved faster than Tarzan liked me. Grabbing the wrist of the long ape arm, sending the animal crashing to the ground. Having established his supremacy, Tarzan gave the apes his instructions. Then he vanished into the jungle toward Garara and the diamond merchant there. Tarzan, what are you doing in town? Hello, Bill. I came to get money to buy livestock at the office. Well, if it's not too much, I'll be glad to help you. I need a great deal. But I've got diamonds to sell in exchange. There you are. Let me see those. Pick one that's worth about a thousand pounds and then keep the rest in your safe until they can be returned. Tarzan, I don't know where you got these, but I'm unable to help you. Why? What's the matter? I can't give you a thousand pounds for one of these. In fact, I couldn't give you 50 pounds for the whole box full. They're all fakes. I don't know, Tarzan. It's a strange story. But where could the real diamonds be? I'm sure that Harry Douglas thought these stones were genuine. Why not just forget the whole thing? A man like that's not worth rescuing. Let the Wamarbows do what they want. I told him I'd return, and I also gave my promise to Okata. I wish there was something I could do, but a thousand pounds of... I know. Thanks anyway, Bill. It's crazy. You said you promised not to bring back any other people. Even if you had the cattle, do you mean you could drive them through the jungle single-handed? Something like that. What are you going to do now? Go back to the jungle. I've got to think about this, and I don't think well in the city. Just don't go back to the Wamarbow, Tarzan. I have to. We'll have to go back. I have to, with or without the cattle. But Okata will answer to my knife if he tries to bind me to that stake again. You've got until the next full moon. If you'd like, I'll spend a few days with you. I'd like to get away from the city myself. Come along. The peace of the jungle will give us our answer. It's been a long time since I've been in the jungle. More beautiful than I remembered. Soon we'll come to the place of the fire. You will not find that beautiful. No, I suppose not. Too bad it had to happen. It was nearer here that I first saw the plane. I wish I... Look, Skah, the vulture. I wonder what he's found this time. Bill, come on. It's a thin chance, but... maybe we seek without knowing it what Skah has found. What do you mean, Tarzan? It's probably just a dead deer that the hyenas aren't through with yet. Probably it is. Over there. There's something. A man. At least it was. And there's the parachute that never opened. This is the man Harry Douglas murdered. What are you doing? Why are you ripping his coat apart? Perhaps Harry wasn't the only one with plans for a double cross. Perhaps? Yes. Look here. From the lining of his coat. Diamonds. Let me see one. These are the real ones. They have to be. Yes, these are genuine. Oh, what beauties. They're so smart they outtrick themselves. We'd better get these stones back to Garara. I know. There isn't much time before the full moon. A few days later, began one of the strangest cattle drives in history. Through the jungle, Great Bull H rode herd on the frightened cattle, driving them along, defending them from the jungle perils. Finally, the wild apes, the docile cattle, and the lord of the jungle, near the Womabo village. Okata's people cannot to meet them. The apes melted unnoticed into the jungle beyond the village. A short while later, Tarzan stood with Okata and Harry Douglas inside the village palisade. He did what he said, Okata. Now how about untieing my hands and letting me loose? Yes, Okata. Release him. No. My people have cattle again. Now we offer sacrifice to idle. Show our thanks. The idle didn't bring the cattle. Tarzan did. All things come from idle.  Tarzan kept his word, but the Womabo chief did not. Now Tarzan will punish Okata. What's that for? Noise of Tarzan, not scare Okata. You are surrounded by warriors. And your village is surrounded by mine. Look, Okata, coming over your walls. Apes, apes, hundreds of them. Tarzan, die for this. Look out, Tarzan. Okata's behind you. Do I see him? What happens now, Tarzan? What are you going to do with me? I will take you to the police. It got out of... Or you can remain in the jungle alone. I figured it'd be something like that. The jungle's better than prison. You made your choice. So now I leave you. He's gone. Disappeared in the trees. No. No, I can't do it. I can't stay here alone. Tarzan! Tarzan! Tarzan, come back! Yes, yes. I've changed my mind.  Just don't leave me here again. But once you show signs of wisdom, the jungle takes care of its own, but unlike the civilized world, it punishes traitors and criminals in slow and unmerciful methods. Come. We'll go to Karara. Strange that only the young and the strong disappear from the tribal village. And then the answer seems to loom on the horizon, seaword, a black-hulled brigantine with a hold large enough to convey slaves. Tarzan, despite the objections of an historical skipper, becomes a passenger aboard ship that is caught in an all-consuming fire at sea in evidence destroyed. Tarzan, a transcribed creation of the famous Edgar Rice boroughs, is produced by Walter White Jr., prepared for radio by David Chandler, with original music by Albert Klasse. This is a Commodore production.
