Ep 25: Jackie Bolen on Teaching in South Korea and ESL Games
This week's episode features guest Jackie Bolen.
Jackie taught English in South Korea at private institutes and universities for over ten years. She now lives in Vancouver, Canada where she does some teaching, writing, and various online things, including running her two websites, eslactivity.org and eslspeaking.org. She is both CELTA and DELTA certified and believes in the value of communicative, interactive language learning. Jackie is particularly interested in using games in the ESL classroom, and she has published several games and activities books, which you can find on Amazon. In her spare time, she's usually on the hunt for the most delicious kimchi she can find, which isn't that easy in Vancouver!
Today, Jackie joins us to discuss teaching in Korea, advice on finding a job, and to offer some great advice on how to make the ESL classroom more fun.
Thank you for listening!
