    Thank you Dear. I'm a 67 yo qualified teacher since military retirement, as well as a past ESL teacher, and originally from Memphis. Know that I truly appreciate your southern identity that we share naturally. I am building my Palfish knowledge as I wait to be accepted, so just want to say Thank You, and hope to stay connected with you. Take care!

    I am glad to hear Palfish does not have an adult pretending to be a kid during the interview process! That is a huge relief. I'm energetic around kids, but "pretend I'm a kid" adults don't have the same effect.

    Hi there, thank you for this. It's great! Just a couple of interview questions. Do you get time to practise before your interview? Ie. do you know what you are meant to be teaching beforehand? Should you have props and images on the wall during your interview? Plus are you filming all of this on your phone? Do you conduct the interview on your phone? Many thanks

    Hi. Ok I have no clue what I'm doing. I've the app on my phone. I filled out my description, pictures, audio description, uploaded my certificate and number 120 hours open international academy.
    It's not asking me for a legal document. Can't see where it says apply.
    What I'll do is watch this video again a couple of times to prepare but is the next stage the interview?
