Teaching English in Taiwan

Iris taught English in Taiwan for around 5 years, as it was a highly demanded and also low-entry barrier job. This mini-comic shows some snippets of that work.

In the words of comics expert and critic Rob Clough, "Yan's tone is so funny because of the way it shifts; there are times when she's unbelievably (and hilariously) harsh in talking about her Taiwanese students, but she also tenderly discusses how much they look up to her and are grateful for the class. As always, Yan is intensely curious about local customs and culture, which is another key aspect of this mini."
