Disney Magic

I've currently on my 3rd contract with Disney English. I've worked in two different cities for the company.
I've so many stories I don't really know where to start....Ok...Well before I joined Disney English I taught in a few secondary schools in England, I was never given my own tutor group and I was never in the schools long enough to see the students develop etc. This has to be the foremost reason why I've stayed so long at Disney English (and not because my manager threatened to steal my passport and hide it if I ever said I was leaving) Having the students renew and keep coming back to class, having parents demand that one spare seat in your class because they want their child to make up in your classes only and noone elses really strikes a cord. Having the parents message you in the group chats whilst your on holiday saying that their child is asking when you are coming back and they send you voice messages too. Knowing that a family really can't afford the price increase but they want the best for the child and still renew anyway.

I've just come back from my home leave and one of my students saw me in the corridor, ran down it and jump hugged me. I swear that my heart skipped a beat and tears filled up my eyes. I don't think I could ever find a job that would produce the same array of emotions that I've found here.

There are of course the usual low moments, but they are to be expected when you are away from home and the host countries rules aren't what you are used to. But they make you a better person and much more flexible for future positions where ever your next journey might be.
