New to English-test! Hello all! I am from Canada

[Mrcards]

Hi everybody, I'd like to introduce myself as I am new to English Test. I go by mrcards, and I was an English teacher in Taiwan for 3-4 years. I loved teaching and the kids that I taught. I moved back to Canada and always had a strong feeling of my time there. But once you get involved in ESL, it's hard to get away from it. Now, my wife and I have created a website called ESL Elite ( www.eslelite.com ) . It's similar in many ways to this site, so I thought I'd drop a friendly hello! I wish you all well with whatever you choose to do, and if you're still involved in teaching English, please enjoy yourselves with this time that you have now; you'll never get it back. Till next time....don't forget to eat your vegetables.

Thank you for introducing yourself to us and for your good wishes, full of infectious enthusiasm. I totally empathise with your love for teaching – isn’t it a special gift?

Congratulations on your website and good luck!

Hello Ricky,

Thank you for introducing yourself and your website to us. It will give us even more opportunities to improve our English get advice and support.
What do you do now in Canada? Are you still teaching English there?

Thanks for the warm welcome, guys! I do get a nice feeling here, and it's even nicer with the personal touch.

My wife, Ricky, was an English teacher teaching at the school I taught at in Taiwan. Now that we're back in Canada, neither of us are teaching anymore. We do have this great big project in front of us now, as I mentioned at the start, our website. It's really amazing at how much time and effort it needs. In fact, it makes me realize that if you want to succeed at anything at all, you have to put forth a lot of focus, attention, and effort.

I'm happy to be here and to contribute whenever I can.
Thanks again,
Andrew
