Teaching in Mexico - Andrea Martins
On New Year's Eve 2001, I decided that I was going to take a trip of a lifetime, leaving my job and family behind. I was a restless professional, working in London in a dull office job and felt that I wanted to take a break from my job and do something worthwhile at the same time.

Teaching in Mexico - Sarah Reid
An ode to Mexico
On a dark nighted November / Drinking tea at half three
Wanting to travel and flee / Miserable England to do something productive
And PA certainly looked constructive.

My Teaching placement in Mexico - Robert Johnson
Beginning on the 1st of March I entered uncharted waters arriving at Guadalajara airport. Unsure of what to expect I relished the unknown and wondered what challenges the three months would throw at me. |

Teaching in Mexico - Tessa Adamsons
"Three months is a long time". I can still recall myself repeating those words constantly in my head on the plane on my way to Mexico. With my time here almost finished, I now realised that three months just wasn't enough. Being half French, half English but living in Belgium I'm very familiar with the European way of life. I therefore expected to have an immense "culture shock" when I arrived in Guadalajara.It never came. Instead I was embraced by Mexico's warm and friendly way of life.
