Teaching For Tomorrow: My Adventures Teaching English in Vietnam 1998-2004

(Back of book)Vietnam. After decades of war this land is now full of youth and optimism.What happens when my students hijack class to visit a buffalo fighting festival? Or when a trip to a remote holiday island turns into a math problem when we find ourselves up the creek without a credit card? Return to the days in Vietnam when America was still a mystery when teamwork was more true to life than test-taking and when students started to care more about the Titanic than Ho Chi Minh.I compiled this book from a long private memoir (called Standing at the Edge of Tomorrow) as a standalone document. I wanted to capture the excitement of being in Vietnam at this earlier time as well as inspire young people to go out into the world and teach English or whatever their skill happens to be. The book mentions my Christian faith and is suitable for family reading.
