I�ve been doing this for a while and have taught in four countries. What�s the record??

[wulfrun]

2!

Let's see, I taught in Korea, Saudi Arabia, and Thailand on my own. With the US government, I have taught in Slovakia, Japan, and Djibouti and am leaving for Afghanistan in one week. So, that would make seven countries. I began teaching in 1995.

Well, I am nowhere near the record, but I have taught in four countries.

[spiral78]

Czech Rep, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Canada, Russia (briefly).
But I'm not a TEFL butterfly, flitting around...maybe those guys aren't posting here?

I am sure there are people out there with many more countries on their tally...

[denise]

Czech Republic, Japan, Peru, and Oman, plus short-term/part-time jobs in China, Chile, and the US. I started in '99.

so 7 is the tied record so far. surely some people have racked up in the teens?

Let's see...In order (and only counting ESL/EFL) - Mexico, Lebanon, Indonesia, China, Vietnam, Spain (briefly, but still...), and the United States. That's it, so 7. Weird. Used to live in New Zealand, too, but I wasn't a teacher there. Not bad I guess, considering I'm not making an effort to break whatever the record might be. By the way, I started in 1996.

[jpvanderwerf2001]

Ukraine, Mexico, Argentina, India, Russia. Five, and it'll probably stay on that number for quite a few years. I started in 2001.
