Today’s challenge: publish a roundup post that links to posts on at least three other blogs, and tell us why we should read your recommendations.
A roundup? What is a roundup? I don’t actually know; as I have never done one! However; WordPress state that “Roundup posts are collections of links to things you love — shouldn’t be the basis of your blogging, but they can be great add-ons. They’re less stressful and time intensive than generating an original post. They open new avenues of conversation. They attract new readers, and are highly share-able.”
This is going to be a hard and lengthy post as there are so many blogs I am currently loving and need you all to read and follow them. Most the blog below are ‘Travel’ or ‘Teaching’ themed; I do apologise for that. As after all this blog is all about my TEFL adventures…
Firstly, I have selected:
Cornish Kylie – Teaching adventures in Thailand
Kylie’s blog was one of the first few blogs based on TEFLing that I started following. Kylie is currently in Thailand; which is one of the places I have been interested in Teaching in. One of the posts that Kylie has written that has stuck in my mind was published on September, 28 2013 – Five for Friday; myths about TEFL teaching. This post has made me think about TEFL teaching more. It was one of the many reasons why I have done the extra modules via i-to-t TEFL.
Nerd in the Brain
I have only recently started following Nerd in the Brain; it is a wonderful insight into home schooling. Fab resources and clever ideas for children. I know that I am going to use some of them when I am travelling – especially this idea about NEDs – wonderful for the students’ responsibilities.
This is another blog I have only recently started following; I love the weekly themes that Ailsa creates…it is good to see what is around the world with the themes! An excellent blog for Photographers to build their portfolio.
My TEFL Adventures 
Thanks for including me in your round up, I’m enjoying following you on your journey to becoming a TEFLer!
*smiles* many thanks Kylie…I love reading your blog to and finding out what life is truly like as a TEFL teacher!
Sometimes I worry I have been a little too honest at times… but hopefully it prepares people for the ups and downs that is life teaching abroad!
It definitely has opened my eyes but me older than most first time TEFL teachers; from what I have read and researched, I feel am more prepared!
Oh, thank you so much for including me in the roundup! I love the idea of NEDs spreading across the globe through you. 😀
