#10 Reverse culture shock. Yeah. After 5 years of livingg in rural Donegal, Ireland. I came home for what was to be 1 year. I had to stock my house from laundry detergent and food to lamps. I was doing fine, all the basics were in my trolly, then the UNTHINKABLE. The dish washing up aisle. I just needed some washing up liquid and it was a full a8sle of dishwasher or hand washing. 8 had this one side of a HUGE aisle 9f liquid dishsoap. Every kind, evert smell and color, every choice imaginable. * I ended up having a massive anxiety attack over freaking dissh soap choices. Discarded cart and contents, ran outside for air. I LIKED having just 2 choices, Fairy and the cheaper one. I'll never forget that day. It put so much into perspective. Pumpkin pie spice wahing up, linen breeze scent, citrus scent, guaranteed to cut any grease instantly in no less than 30 seconds. Yeah. BIG, BIG anxiety attack. I don't WANT an aisle full of choices. Not not or from when I was away grom the u.s. Had a total breakdown in my car. 😢

About #9, once I heard that it's really only Americans that suck about talking to people that aren't in their immediate vicinity. I read an article about how Indians are really good at keeping friendships once they're abroad because they're family oriented and friendships don't form so quickly so therefore they don't break so quickly. And then I remembered someone said the same about Latin Americans, and then I remembered someone said the same about Russians and Eastern Europeans and etc etc 😅 I think we're just so buddy buddy with strangers and new people that once people in our lives leave, we don't even bat an eye because then we just fill that hole with new people. And we're not used to people moving abroad.

I agree. America is a much more individualistic society whereas other countries are more family oriented.

Thank you so much for this useful information, I just want to ask you about how to be able to teach a month or a few weeks in so many countries like you mentioned in 9:00 min.. Please I need more information regarding this, like is there a website where you can apply or programs ? Looking forward to your reply, thanks

@ESLTeacher365 Жыл бұрын

To teach for just a few weeks or a month you are typically only able to do this as a volunteer or during a summer program like a summer camp. I recommend checking out my video on summer camps abroad. You can also check out international volunteer websites. Best of luck!

Hello! 😊 Please tell us the reason that an evacuation plan might be necessary.

@ESLTeacher365 Ай бұрын

In my case, I had to evacuate Egypt due to civil unrest. If you aren’t a citizen of the country where you are teaching, you aren’t offered the same protections during times of crisis, so your embassy may coordinate an exit plan or you may be responsible.

When I worked in Spain we were expected to exchange our culture with the students. We specifically had activities planned by the school for these holidays.
