Our Story
We started as just 2 teachers who wandered the globe
In 2017 I decided to leave America again for the last time and Asia was on the menu. I had met a boy and invited him to come along. We found teaching jobs in Tianjin, China after what felt like an endless search and away we went. After our time in China we have lived in an additional 12 countries and finally decided that it was time that we helped other people realize their dream of educating the next generation while getting out and seeing the world. EWA is for schools that need to find amazing talented teachers and for those same teachers to find the perfect place to work. Teaching can be an adventure if you let it.

Christophe Watkins
Business Director
As a digital nomad since 2009 Chris has experienced the world and seen first hand how hard it can be to find the right job in the right place at the right time. He is from America but has not lived there in over a decade and loves the diversity the world has to offer. English Work Abroad is the combination of his experience and Jake's passion for languages and travel.
Jacob Borror
Creative Director
Jacob is a language hobbyist with a decade of knowledge and experience studying world languages. He has spent the past five years helping students from all over the world improve their English pronunciation skills, teaching the principles of General American English pronunciation. Not only does he have deep, comprehensive knowledge of most of the world's major languages—he can also pronounce nearly all of their sounds, which means that when you make a mistake, he can clearly repeat your mistake back to you and compare it with standard pronunciation. If you want to sound more like an American, but aren't sure where to start, Jacob is here to help you on your path to success.
