Holy crap!

I'm going to Cambodia to teach English.  What?  I don't know what gave them the idea that I am qualified to do this.  Sure, I can teach a bunch of privileged white teenagers how to write a research paper, but teaching first graders the alphabet is a different story.  Welcome to my journey!  I hope you enjoy the trials and joys of this great adventure. 

Like any bright and educated individual, I went to the Internet for guidance.  I typed "teaching esl" into Google.  Guess what?  There are about a thousand sites devoted to this topic, complete with sample lessons and tests.  Yes!  Problem solved.

Armed with my laptop, a set of whiteboard markers, and some heavy duty vaccinations, I think I am prepared. 

Now, I just need to figure out how to ride a motorbike...and use chopsticks...and speak Khmer...and teach E.S.L...
