Reasoning

So for those of you who do not know, I have run into unfortunate positions with the schools I've been working in. For some reason, I get really excited about the part-time positions that I can specialize in. For example; reading specialist and G/T-Honors Teacher have been two very wonderful positions that I have enjoyed immensely. However, these are the positions that tend to get cut first when numbers in enrollment go down or there's a budget crisis. So for the school year of 2009-2010 I found myself without a job again. An opportunity came up through friend of a friend sort of thing and I found myself contemplating on whether I could got to Korea for a year or so to teach over there. Very gratefully, I find myself preparing to go teach preschool/jr. Kdg. class at an English speaking international school. This means that I will still be teaching content and not just English. I'm very excited about this. Helena will be attending the school that I teach at and my hubbers Dan/Doc (whatever you call him) will be a stay at home dad. He's very excited about the time he'll get to spend with Helena while I'm still working or tutoring. This the the reason for the blog...to keep my peeps updated and informed while I'm away, espescially for those who don't follow Facebook or Twitter. :p I'll be posting updates about my time leading up to and through the time I am in Korea as well as posting pics.
