I also want to view your school's website in effort to learn more about what is being offered. I am researching various areas just now.

You know, you've got my curiosity worked up as well; I'd like to see the web page for this Gipsy school in Mexico. I tried searching on Yahoo and Google as well and couldn't find anything.

I am gonna post this again so that you, FoxandMe, or anyone else is clear on this:

A tefl certificate is worthwhile for those with a confidence problem, no experience teaching, extra money to spend, or would like to gain extra tips and pointers that they are reluctant to learn on their own. I know many people who have taken the courses and all have been pretty impressed with them. If you have good self confidence, some experience, can learn on your own, and take the time to find new ways to teach things then going without a Tefl certificate is the way to go.

If you decide you want to make a profession out of it, then take an online Masters degree program and be a real professional.

FoxandMe, you are gonna find some success in Mexico, or you might fail, but you will have one heck of an experience. If Mexico isn't all you hoped it would be, I will give you a little tidbit to keep in the back of your mind, there are teachers who have taken their dogs with them to Korea to teach. Difficult, but doable.

How about this; a teacher I used to work with, adpoted two cats here in Mexico. She took them with her to Korea! They're just about to start their second year in Korea. Laughing

Oh and FoxandMe, that last crack from cwc means that you should get an Apostille, a kind of international notarization on your degree.

Yeah, I understood what I need to do. I just didn't think it was worth responding to.

I would be interested in seeing that website, as well. For some reason, it doesn't come up in any search, no matter how it is worded.

The ESL community in Mexico is not that big. We run across each other at different events, and in the course of life. Directors of schools converse with each other, all of the time, checking on candidates. When someone is as disturbed as our pet troll, it would probably be best to inform the school that they may have a timebomb on their staff.

Considering the threats made over PMs to some of us, I am sure the head of Gipsy would take a call from another director.

Actually, I don't think any of us are interested in the owner's email; we want to see the web page that you told us your school has.
Does it exist?
What is it?
