  • Great info and a fun listen!

    My wife and I are very interested in becoming international teachers! I stumbled upon this podcast and am soaking up as much info as I can. With something that is so foreign to us it is nice hearing the experiences of Matt, Greg, and their guests! We have one little one that would be tagging along (with hopefully more to come) so it could be cool to hear from a guest who grew up going to international schools as a student. Just an idea! Love it and keep them coming!

Thanks for the awesome work and please keep the stories coming! :)

    P.S. Would love to hear about guests that have taught or currently teach in China, TCK’s, and/ or are... more
