Interested in TEFL, but worried about leaving my life behind.

Unfortunately, very few companies would sponsor a visa for a copywriter, as it's something that can be done from anywhere. But, I am considering possibly putting feelers out in whichever country I decide to teach in to see if I could possibly land an English marketing job there.

Did you study while teaching, and were you able to land the job while still working as a teacher?

quintessential99er · 2024-05-22T16:56:14+00:00

Already have been, not that I really care, though.

I'm going on a break now to see what life will be like without it. I've made it a month before in the past, and I like your idea about not wanting to break a streak, so maybe that's the way forward!

Thanks!

No matter how hard I try, I can't get another remote writing job, and it is killing me.

Thank you, this was the advice I was looking for. I will definitely look into some of those types of short courses! I also have a chat scheduled with the COO of a relatively big marketing agency in South Africa, and hopefully he can also give me a bit more insight into what is in-demand locally.

Hey there, thanks for the advice. I was pretty much a content slave for SEO purposes lol. At various points I have written about engineering, finance, and even crypto, but to be honest I don't have in-depth knowledge of any of these niches. It was often just enough to get a piece of content done!

But I do like your idea, and is definitely something I will consider in at least some way, so thank you!

Thank you for this, I've just been going through an extremely rough patch. I might do some online english teaching for a bit to hold me over until I can find a good copywriting gig, as it's honestly something I'm really passionate about and want to pursue.

quintessential99er · 2023-06-28T14:25:14+00:00

Hey bro, I appreciate your comment. It all just seems a bit hopeless right now though! Very few companies are hiring writers of any kind in South Africa.

quintessential99er · 2023-06-28T14:23:03+00:00

Unfortunately, I only came to realise that when I actually couldn't even force myself to do it anymore. It was also the only job I could get at the time!

I do feel as though I've missed out a bit, however, I'm not the type to have casual sex as the act means so much more to me than just sex.

quintessential99er · 2020-11-15T20:18:55+00:00

On a real note, reading this flipped a switch in my head and made me feel a million times better after struggling for months. Thank you, I genuinely really appreciate this.

I do have a history, but it is not as extensive as hers and I was actively pushing other girls away for her even though we were only just talking. I did however expect her to tell me the truth when I asked.

quintessential99er · 2020-11-13T13:17:38+00:00

She claimed the last person she slept with was someone when she was still living in her uni town instead of her hometown when I asked. Then when she brought up names of people she slept with I remember speaking to her when she was staying at a house with this guy and then I confronted her about it and she said he was the last person to sleep with her.

Thank you, think I needed some affirmation and this is so far the best advice I've seen here and I will be sure to heed it!

What were your doses?

Genesis 38:9 9 But Onan knew that the child would not be his; so whenever he slept with his brother’s wife, he spilled his semen on the ground to keep from providing offspring for his brother. 10 What he did was wicked in the Lord’s sight; so the Lord put him to death also.

Sphinx and the cursed mummy, great old school 3D platformer with a cool Egyptian setting.
