I teach English in Santiago, Chile and one of the exam questions we have to ask our upper-intermediate students in oral exams is:
Do you like water sports?
Do you prefer watching or participating?
I’ve never yet been able to ask it with a straight face.

I loved this! I am actually looking into teaching English as a foreign language myself, and this just gave me more motivation (not that I needed it). I am 33 yrs old and am making a drastic life change by picking up and moving to another country (don’t know where yet) to teach English and see the world. The great part is, I know that while I am teaching them our language, I will learn so much more from them. Thanks for the great post!

AMAZING!!! I used to teach in Tokyo and this is the type of stuff I experienced on a day-to-day basis.
I kept a book of funny quotes from students. It’s classic.
Thanks for sharing! It brought me right back to Japan.
@Lin I have a bunch of great ideas for you and your travel. Get in touch if you are interested.
