Etiquette Middle East ▷ Infographic - ✔️ ✔️ ✔️ ITTT
Being an English teacher in a foreign country enables you to share aspects of your own culture with your students while they are learning English from you. This helps to broaden their minds as well as develop a better understanding of the culture behind the language they are learning.

Simple, innocent gestures from your home country could cause great offense to your hosts, while every day interactions in a new country can make a foreigner feel awkward and uncomfortable. A little consideration and understanding of how things are done in your new home can go a long way to making your experience a truly positive one. The... [Read more]
