When traveling somewhere new, there’s always going to be a knowledge gap between you and the locals that might get in the way of communicating. So especially if you don’t speak the local language, there are a few phrases that will help you out a lot in getting around. These are some phrases you should try to learn before your trip so you don’t have to consult Google translate every five minutes!

Basic Politeness

Polite gestures such as “please”, “thank you”, “excuse me”, “yes”, “no”, and the local greetings and farewells can go a long way. They show that you have basic respect for the people around you and will make it much easier to connect to the people at your destination. It’s also a good idea to see if there are any unforeseen politeness codes in that region that you should be aware of.

Restaurants and Shopping

If you’re in a touristy area, you’ll probably want to sample the local cuisine and buy souvenirs or at least window shop. Phrases such as “how much does this cost,” and “may I have that” are useful whenever you’re in a purchasing setting. In addition, at a restaurant, if you have dietary restrictions, be sure you know how to ask “does this have __” about specific dishes and how to express that you can’t eat certain foods.

Basic Necessities

Finally, there’s the basics that you’ve probably thought of yourself which you’ll find you’ll often need in day-to-day life. “Where’s the bathroom”, “Can you give me directions to__”, “I only speak English. Do you speak English?” and just in case of emergency, “I need help”. With these several simple base phrases, you should have an easier time getting around in your temporary home!

Would you rather go to bed at 3am OR wake up at 5am🤔? That’s the question I’ve been asking myself lately as there’s been sooo much work and online course creation on top of everything😴 I do it all with great pleasure but when you’re half asleep it doesn’t feel totally right #workharddieyoung 😅so I made a decision to put on hold all my online lessons as well as Digital English Teacher online course to dive into one more adventure of course creation🙃💪✏There are several things I’ve learned so far: Since creating a course requires a lot of commitment you have to have a very well-established motivation 🤩( e.g.a mission, dream, financial reward) ⠀ ✏Collective mind is super powerful, so if you have like-minded people, it’s better to work on the course together with someone 🤝having previously distributed all your functions thoroughly🗣 I’m very lucky to have a partner this time but eventually due to a bad delegation we ended up doing the same job😒As the result, instead of 2 days we spent the whole week per each lesson😠✏Tech side of the course is as important as content as it will eventually be crucial in choosing how you will deliver the materials 🧐(e.g. what will go to the video and text formats, type of exercises etc.) ⠀ Next time I’ll share more on the course area, structure and format🤗 meanwhile we’ve got shooting of the video materials and frankly I’m a bit nervous😬 please wish me luck 🙏🏻😃

One market, however, has always relied on remote workers and if you get a job in it, you’ll be able to travel the world while working and earning money to support your travels! We’re talking about teaching English as a second language, also known as ESL. Companies hire teachers from all around the world to provide daily classes for millions of people who want to learn English. How does that work?

The companies typically prefer employees from countries in which English is the first language. Others don’t require this, however, they do pay less. It also helps if you have a Bachelor’s degree, as many companies ask for it. Experience in teaching can also help you get a job faster and be paid better.

If you want to try out teaching ESL, don’t get discouraged if the initial payment is lower than what you expected. With some experience in the field, you’ll be able to get a raise or move to another company that pays better.
