Hi, my name’s Charlie!
I’m from Bath originally but I left a long time ago and am now happily settled in sunny Spain. I began my journey as an young whipper snapper TEFLer in no other than….that’s right Thailand! Where most backpackers, young impressionable adults often go to find some kind of independence. I taught for over 2 years in a local public school before making the move over to South Korea. I had initially planned to go to Japan but I was too impatient and the right job offer didn’t come at the right time.
I spent a year in South Korea, in a city called Busan before then deciding that I was going to take this thing a little more seriously. With nearly 3 years of teaching experience under my belt I decided to do a CELTA course at Bath College. It was an amazing experience and met some awesome people along the way. It was an intense 30 days but well worth it and I felt I could teach in Europe. With that in mind, I jumped on a plane to Spain.
I arrived in Cadiz, Spain in the year of 2012 (I think). I spent 3 years there before moving to Seville and once again returning to Cadiz into the position I still hold as Director of Studies of Foreign Languages at CLIC IH Cadiz. I am now DELTA qualified and have set up this website and my YouTube channel in order to share my experience and know-how on teaching English and on educational technology, which is a passion of mine.
I don’t take myself seriously, never have, and I try to instill humour into everything I do. I find it helps.
