Even though we come from different backgrounds and places in the world, we all have one thing in common, that we are teaching. Here are our 2018 Teach Abroad participants. We asked them to answer this question, “why do you teach” and here is what they had to say:
“I want to be the point of exposure to the US for students who may not have had that chance. I was always fascinated by other places as a kid but never got the chance to leave the United States. When I finally did, I was mind blown.”
Carlisle, Pennsylvania
“I am inspired by my students and I enjoy sharing the Arabian culture with them. I teach to meet the needs of my students and enjoy creating interactive lessons to meet those needs.”
Kurdistan, Iraq
“I teach to show kids what they already know— that they can do it.”
