RE: Is Teaching ESL in China a Dead End Job?!
Very true! And a joke: when you see an expat/a foreigner in China, you ask: "Are you an engineer?""No.""Ah, then you must be an ESL teacher?" Haha, of course there are other jobs too... but you know both, so you can rock there! ;)
Exactly. I actually thought about becoming an engineer in China but being a teacher allows more freedom and a higher salary lol.
For my 5th year in China, I really want to become a professional in filming/editing and take my classes to the next level. I am thinking about creating a kickstarter campaign with my students to create some brand new product. I have done something similar in the past but it wasn't a brand new product. That ended up successful.
The kickstarter campaign with your students is a brilliant idea! You will have a lot of fun and it's great for their creativity, problem-solving skills, entrepreneurial spirit and so on... They will learn so much more than from the boring textbook for sure!
And remember to tell me your new product after it's created, so I can promote it on Steemhunt, haha... :D
Nice :)
I am planning to post a new blog in the next few days about the product my students and I manufactured and sold on campus. They sure learned a lot.
Thanks for your help, Donica. I appreciate it.
