Great opportunity to teach and explore Chinese culture

I really enjoyed the two months I spent teaching at the BOB school for English in Shantou, China. Not only did I get the chance to delve deeper into Chinese culture, fully immersing myself in the local way of life, but I also got to try my hand at teaching foreign languages, which is something that I personally, as someone studying modern languages at university, found incredibly rewarding. The teaching built my confidence as well, as prior to the program I had never been given authority over a group, and having this dependence upon me really made me push myself to come up with creative lessons which both myself and the students could enjoy. I would fully recommend Gotoco to anyone, not only those who think that teaching could be a future vocation, but also to those who simply enjoy exploring a new, alien culture.
