It was really nice of you to do a thorough video on this topic. It’s a gift that you’re able to be a fun and enthusiastic teacher 👨🏫 I’m sure it really helps the students retain the information better. It’s interesting how the grades are at your school. Is there a sixth grade in the elementary schools? Do all the classrooms at your school use chalkboards?
@ryfree4 ай бұрын
Yes, the sixth grade is part of elementary school (how it was in America when I was a kid). Most of the classrooms at my school still use chalk boards so lots of breaking chalk and chalky hands lol. Thank you so much as always for watching Diana!

@@ryfree That’s interesting. My middle school had sixth through eighth. Hah, that’s funny. Chalk can be fun, but messy for sure. Of course, bro! See you soon 🤩

Your hair still cracks me up bro! Product or no? Appearance is important there in Taiwan. More than USA? It's cool you post this content. You bored? Doing this on your downtime between classes, because you could teach most of your classes in your sleep?
@ryfree4 ай бұрын
Yes, the hair has product in it 90% of the time lol. I don't know if it's more important in Taiwan, but appearance is definitely commented on more here. Bored, you guessed it. The downtime can be a killer if I just stay in the office doing nothing so gotta keep active one way or another. Definitely not spending that time making endless powerpoints.

Great video once again Ryan! Do you anticipate remaining in Taiwan once again next school year?
@ryfree4 ай бұрын
Great question. I think I'll probably stay for another year unless the itch to leave becomes undeniable. But so far so good! Thank you so much for watching.

Ah I see they have the student numbers on sticks here too. We did popsicle sticks in Korea and I would walk around and let random students pick a number stick to see which two would do the dialogue. I also had a clapstick to let them do the "ready, action" announcements. I've done movie genre lessons with my kids too and they always love them. Very well put together lessons Ryan.

Always good to hear how other teachers do things, thank you for sharing! How is everything going these days, any luck with applications?

I've made headway with Teach Taiwan and had a successful interview a couple weeks ago and sent more documents. Was just asked if I would be interested in the Taichung program for August. I replied I would be. The issue for me is finding something ASAP in the meantime cause money is tight. Things have really not been easy this past week but I'm still fighting through. Thanks again for the videos Ryan. They're a lifeline for me and continue to inspire me to keep going until I find the right school for me. It's the one big piece of the puzzle still missing in the Taiwanese chapter of my story.

@@PsychoGeminiWell I know it's not easy to be out of work for that long with a dwindling savings and I'm sorry to hear that you're now dealing with that. Although August isn't exactly around the corner, if you're able to land a good public school gig that would be great. Congrats on the successful interview! Hopefully you can find something to keep you afloat in the meantime. I see lots of PT jobs listed on Facebook in Kaohsiung so check in your area if you haven't already. Let's get that puzzle piece in place!

@@ryfree Thank you Ryan. I've actually been interviewing and doing demos locally here in Tainan and it's an anxiety-inducing pain not hearing back from people. On the plus side, I was finally able to sign up for self-pay into NHI on Thursday after hitting the six-month residency mark and they were nice and efficient about it. I have nothing but high praises for the gov't services of Taiwan thus far (immigration, police [for my backround check], and NHI). So much easier to deal with compared to Korea.
@ryfree4 ай бұрын
@@PsychoGeminiYes, I have had nothing but efficient service in pretty much everything I've done here though I haven't had to sign up into the NHI myself. That's reassuring to hear!

I have a bachelor's in marketing, not for teaching - I was curious if it's still possible to teach at a public school if it isn't in teaching - thanks!

@@chasejoseph Yes absolutely but you'll need a substitute teaching license (valid for over one year) along with your Bachelor's in Marketing.
