O.K I tried to send you a reply but I believe it's accidentally been erased. I just commented on your experiences as a teacher overseas, how wonderful of an experience it must be for yourself as well as your family. I was also going to inquire about your hobby which I believe you've said there is an art to doing properly. Who have you had success in contacting and what was the outcome? Also, how did you decide on your career, and actually I have a question regarding this, I was under the impression that this type of teaching was primarily for the immersion of students into the english language, what type of positions are there in the UK or Australia, or did you say Austria? (I can't go back to look now since that is how I lost the whole reply I had typed out initially.) I was an education major for a year in college before I realized I couldn't be around large groups of kids on a daily basis and still maintain my sanity. Anyway, back then, I had noticed some of the literature on this type of program, but never had the chance (since switching majors) to persue it.

In Australia the job involves teaching English to new arrivals. Trying to think who you may know out of the replies I've had. 5 out of 6 Friends with just David Schwimmer to come. Patrick Stewart and William Shatner from Star Trek. Duchovny and Anderson from X-Files. John Travolta, Meatloaf, Jack Nicklaus and Gary Player. 4 from the Harry Potter films; Alan Rickman, Robbie Coltrane, Maggie Smith and Emma Watson. How's that for starters?
Will definitely write that article soon.
