Take Flight Teaching #5 - Did I Almost Get Kidnapped in China? Things to Never Do When Teaching Abroad

In this episode, I discuss an uncomfortable situation I was faced with at a sketchy training center in China. All training centers are not this way and although the situation was sketchy, people were very nice to me overall. However, I am a person that follows my instincts and I didn't feel like I was being told the truth. I also give some quick pro tips on things to NEVER do when you are preparing to go teach abroad or if you are already teaching abroad. We also have a new list of over 200 legitimate job sites that are extremely difficult to find online if you don't know where to look.
