Let's Talk TEFL Information
Gregory Diehl joins the podcast to talk about his new book (Our Global Lingua Franca), which explores the cultural and economic importance of spreading English as a universal language. It's based on his experience having taught in more than a dozen countries and observing the persistent flaws that prevent the majority of learners from developing even conversational English fluency, let alone true fluency.
Gregory V. Diehl is a business and personal development author who writes for deep thinkers unsatisfied with ordinary approaches to important subjects. His work often deconstructs and challenges cultural narratives and practices.
When he’s not writing, he offers alternative education and mentorship informed by his wealth of diverse cultural experience across the globe. He has taught English and trained English teachers in more than a dozen countries around the world and continues to try to improve the English education system where he now lives in Armenia.

In this episode, I'm going to be spilling some major tea on all the move-abroad programs...
Whether it's that fun-looking teach abroad program, getting your TEFL for free in exchange for a few months of teaching, or those digital nomad programs where you all move around the world together while working remotely, I'm not a fan.
Why do I have such an issue with all of these programs and what should you do instead?
In this episode I'm going to break down why these programs are NOT a good deal, why there's no such thing as "free", and I'll even be doing the math to show you how much money you're wasting. Ouch!
Now if you want to feel empowered to move abroad without a program, I've got a 4-day LIVE bootcamp starting June 10th!
Ready to make your dream happen? Grab your ticket to the bootcamp here (only $37)
