Evan,

Hats off to you and your accomplishment.

I saw your good title and it immediately drew me in as I too entered to study ESL to teach. But this was just a year ago, Im 73 and looking for a new job. Guess what? Completely than you at 14 I quit!

I was just completely unable to absorb the grammar I'd have to learn to properly teach english. I quit, tail between my legs and walked away humbled. I really respect that you climbed that mountain.

Tom
