So this Teach Overseas group tricked me by thinking I could teach for free in another country when you actually have to pay them....which I think is weird (what should I expect from a religious group). But may be good if you are doing a British gap year or you're retired.

If either of those options applied to me, my choice would be to go back to Turkey which is now offered by the group.

I got this email recently. Check it out:

Are you still interested in serving overseas? I’d like to share anexciting new opportunity with you in Turkey!

Consider a journey to the land of Ephesus, Galatia and Philippi. As you explore ancient ruins and colorful bazaars, you will be greeted by people who know very little about Jesus.

You see, today, Turkey is 99% Muslim. With a stable secular government, Turkey has emerged as a strategic leader in the modern Middle East.

God has opened doors in Turkey for such a time as this!

You can let your light shine in Turkey through teaching conversational English.

TeachOverseas provides comprehensive training for summer andyear-long opportunities. No experience necessary. Fundraising is involved.Please reply to this email today if you are interested in Turkey, or other opportunities in Azerbaijan, Cambodia, China, Hungary,Kazakhstan, Russia , Ukraine or Vietnam.

God Bless You,
