    koko ja Normally, you'd say "I'm an English teacher from Australia/England etc." However, you COULD say I'm a teacher of English/English as a Foreign Language etc. too. Helpful? (^_^)

    What do you do for a living?
    [What də yuh do fɜ:ʳ a living?]
    Here we use a "schwa" [a short vowel] for the first “do” and a “ɜ:” [a long vowel] for “for”. The International Phonetic Alphabet isn’t easy. Hope I am right.
