Ok, I am off work this month so I have more free time. I do not want to deal with certain people coming to audit the school, we have visa things to settle and I have to finish my young learners portion of my TEFL before it expires on April, 23rd. So, I decided to take the month off.
I usually start to get depressed when I have more than 2 days off in a row from work.
I am keeping busy this month as much as I can. I have been playing with GIMP. So you will notice a change to my header image here. I am going to change it more later, but I want to post it for now anyway. I am a little bit confused by GIMP. I am used to using PaintShop Pro for editing so the layout of GIMP is strange. I will learn it, but it is taking longer than I want.
I have some books by Pavel Tsatsouline and I am going to try out some of his suggested exercises and stretches.
I am working on the young learners course. It only has 5 units (6 if you count the introduction) and I just completed unit 3 today. At this rate I will have the units finished tomorrow and I will be ready to get the test. Once I have the test I have 24 hours to complete it and send it back in. If I pass then I get a TEYL certificate to go with my TEFL. TEYL = Teaching English to Young Learners. TEFL = Teaching English as a Foreign Language.
At this rate I will have that course finished this week. This is my first week off and I am off for the remainder of this month and a little of next month. I will not have to go back until at least May 5th.
This month we should get our car and we should also get things settle for my visa.
It will be great when we get both of those things sorted.
When I have the TEYL certificate then it will mean more jobs opportunities for me as well as more pay. Mwa hahahahahaha
