Because I asked because, as I mentioned before we started recording, I no longer work at the British Council, actually.
I changed... Oh, you haven't mentioned yet that I live in Taiwan, but I guess now we'll mention that bit.
So...
Yes.
So I moved to Taiwan two and a half years ago to work at the British Council here.
And I was adult coordinator, which is kind of assistant head of the adults department for a couple of years.
And then I moved to a new job at the beginning of this school year.
So that was like August, late August, early September.
And I now teach English at
in a French school in Taiwan.
So I'm teaching English as a foreign language to students who speak it as a foreign language and also teaching English the way it would be taught in the UK, like as a first language, so literature and language to students who already have a fluent level of English.
So I've got two kind of different streams of students in my classes.
And my favorite thing about
I think is seeing students progress.
And also sometimes you get like really encouraging stories from students like they, I don't know, maybe they do really well in a, in a university entrance exam or interview or something.
And sometimes,
It's because of what you've been doing during class.
So it's kind of there's a really kind of tangible result there where maybe actually all they needed was a bit more confidence.
But they've they've got there through the practice.
And I think that applies even more when I'm teaching teenagers.
