I have taught ESL in China, Japan, Thailand, New York City, Brazil, Seattle, and France. In July of 2001, I taught in Changshu, China at a 2 week ESL summer camp for elementary school students. Then I taught the rest of the year in Shanghai, China at a Private College (the Shanghai Industry and Commercial Foreign Language College). I taught first year college students conversational and oral english at the SICFL institute. Also in Shanghai I taught privately at an elementary school, a private school for children, and as a private tutor.

In 2004 I taught ESL in Curitiba, Brazil where I worked at a private English school called Wisdom Escola Ingles. I worked for 3 months at this school, teaching teenage students and adults.
I have taught ESL in France on two occasions. In 2005 I worked at an English immersion summer camp for French kids as a English teacher/camp counselor for two months.
