Hello and thank you for visiting my profile page. My name is Oscar Theodros and I'm from Cerritos, California located in Los Angeles County. I started my teaching career in 2015 after volunteering for an English language cafe in Japan. Afterwards, I attended a teacher training college located in Pressbaum, Austria named ABCi. There I gained valuable experience as a student teacher. I had the wonderful opportunity to travel all across the major regions of Austria to teach an English workshop in over ten different middle schools. After attending ABCi I worked in countries such as France and Germany teaching English in summer camps. I know am in Japan for the second time volunteering over the summer for a new English language cafe.
