May started off her corporate career working in a hotel but later moved on to work as a marketing manager in a private higher learning institution on the island of Borneo. While at the education institution, she saw the joy that other lecturers derived from their work and that prompted her to go back to university for a total change of career direction. She obtained her postgraduate qualifications in TESL and Linguistics and has not looked back since. She went on to work for 12 years as a senior lecturer in a public university and was involved extensively in lecturing, tutoring, research and publication. She later opted to travel the world and teach. Her classroom experience includes teaching children as young as 6 years old to adults in their fifties. Her favourite topics fall within the domains of Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) and Classroom Management. Her advice to future EFL teachers is to go for it! It is one of the most fulfilling jobs in the world, especially when you meet your students again many years down the road and they come up to you to thank you for something you taught them back in the day!
