Bringing the World Closer
First Assignment
Hello everyone! Congratulations on completing your first task: successfully logging in to the MyTeachingHouse.com site!
We are presently developing Generation 2 of the MyTeachingHouse site. It’s a great resource both on the course and after the course (in finding work and keeping up with friends you’ve made during the course). As this site is under development, we’d appreciate any feedback or suggestions that you have.
I have a few more tasks for you to complete—it may take about an hour or two. Please read the instructions below and complete it before next Monday.
Directions: All written answers must be posted on this thread (First Assignment) within the discussion forum in your course group. Since there are many of you, it's important to post only on this thread (click "Reply to This" at the bottom) so that we can keep the forum from getting full and messy-looking. However, if you have any other comments or questions you are welcome to start a new thread.
1. If you haven’t already, edit your profile with your current location, status and photo.
2. Browse through our international directory of English language schools (hover over "RESOURCES" in the toolbar at the top of the page and click "SCHOOL DIRECTORY" ). Post the name of a school that you think you might be interested in applying to after the course, and (briefly) why you liked that school.
3. Go to Course Forms (the big blue arrow on your course page) and find a word from one of the glossaries that you do not know.
4. Check out the Forums section of the site and watch Bill Harris' demo lesson: (VIDEO) Demo Lesson: Elementary Level Speaking/Pronunciation/Vocabulary Focus. Post a reply to this discussion or another in the forums section.
5. Post one idea or recommendation for MyTeachingHouse.com.
6. Post a personal goal related to taking our Teaching House CELTA course.
7. Post a comment about someone else’s comments, for example, “Lizzy, I agree with your comment about the job listings section…” or “Abby, I saw that you wanted to work in Paris. I was thinking about that myself—is it hard to find work in France?” If you're one of the first people to post, come back later with a comment after your peers have caught up.
Good luck and keep coming back to our site! You can email me at christen@teachinghouse.com with any questions.
All the best,
Brian

I would love to tech in Croatia I think. There isn't much information on schools in Croatia, so I'll have to do a bit more research I think. As far as a personal goal, I think number one would be to pass! The grammar aspect of the course is going to be most challenging for me. The reading I have been doing about grammar sounds very much like Charlie Browns teacher. I am a bit nervous.
As for the website- I think its great. I am having trouble uploading my photo though, so thats definitely a problem (though I'm not sure for who). Live chat window maybe?? -

Oh I have another suggestion! Under the 'Listings' heading, put rental information category for folks looking for rentals in the area!
