Brandi Nelson's TEFL Articles
Brandi Nelson
Brandi majored in Spanish in college with the intention of becoming a Spanish teacher. After lots of years working in a corporate job, she decided it was time to get back to what she loved: language and teaching. Brandi started volunteering at a Latin American community center as an assistant teaching English classes. One of the teachers there said to her, "You know, I could totally see you as an expat in a foreign country teaching English." Brandi had never considered teaching English abroad until that very moment and she immediately knew that it was what she wanted to do. After getting TEFL certified, Brandi moved to Barcelona, Spain where she privately tutors students and also teaches English online.
