30 Days Remaining

It is the month of August and my last month at Taylors. Just to reiterate, Taylors is a great place to work so if you are considering teaching overseas, you could not ask for a better place to start. Most teachers come and stay for 2 years but 1 and 3 years is also not unusual.

The students are great and the staff is varied. The only downside is about 33% of the staff turns over every year. The students also change over every year as they are usually only at Taylors for 2 semesters. I do stay in contact with many of my students through facebook.

I checked with many of my ex students and most of them seem to be maintaining their averages that they obtained at CPU. If a student graduated with an 85 average at CPU they are maintaining that average at a Canadian University. I would think we did a good job at CPU or they are just working really hard. Probably, a little bit of both.

This weekend I am heading to Singapore to visit Sentosa Island which is home to Universal studios.  I will report back to you on how it stacks up with Orlando's Universal Studios.

TTYL,

Jim
