Adam McCarthy    

"Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry & narrow-mindedness."  Mark Twain

           As a recent graduate from Carleton University, Adam holds a four year Bachelor of Commerce Honours Degree with a specialization in Marketing. However his true passion lies in traveling the world, being immersed in foreign cultures and undertaking new and exciting challenges. Adam never knew what the world had to offer, living and growing up in Ottawa his entire life, until he took it upon himself to actually go see the world first hand.

            Throughout the past four years Adam has traveled extensively, and has set foot in over 25 different countries. Whether it be backpacking through the medieval streets of Europe, to relaxing on white sandy beaches in the Caribbean, Adam has had quite a full travel log. His experiences have brought him through Europe, Latin and South America, The Caribbean and South East Asia.

           No one is better suited to discuss the positives and negatives of how to find a guesthouse in Northern Laos, or which temples to see at Angkor Wat, Cambodia. Adam can give you the ins and outs of what it is like to stand with one foot on the north and one foot on the south side of the equator in Ecuador. Or what the four day trek to Machu Picchu, Peru is really like.

            Whether it is simple advice, or in-depth questions, Adam brings vast business knowledge and travel experiences to United TESOL International College of Teacher Training. As a graduate himself from the college, Adam is looking forward to a stint in teaching overseas. However first Adam is eager to help future and past graduates find the right teaching situations for them, and live vicariously through the hundreds of United TESOL graduates posted all over the world.
