In this captivating episode of the podcast, (Greg the Single Guy has internet problems) host Jacqueline Mallais engages in a lively discussion with Annette Gubbles, an experienced international educator currently based in the vibrant city of Hanoi, Vietnam. Annette's journey in international teaching is as inspiring as it is diverse, having navigated the challenges of online teaching during the COVID-19 pandemic to now leading high school mathematics at the United Nations International School. She delves into her life's journey, revealing how her family, including her husband and children, have adapted to various international settings, with personal anecdotes that are both enlightening and heartwarming. Particularly striking is the story of her son, who, having grown up in a constantly shifting international environment, pursued medicine in Amsterdam, requiring additional studies to meet the Netherlands' entry requirements.
