Introduction to this Guide

Welcome to my guide! My name is Kyle Henderson and I am in the process of spending 7 months of my life teaching English to primary school children in La Rochelle France through the TAPIF program. While I may share fun anecdotes from time to time, the primary goal of this blog is to provide a practical guide to TAPIF with a focus on working in Primary Schools.

In my guide, I eventually hope to cover all of the following topics:

- Why TAPIF?
- Application
- Choosing a region
- Acceptance: Pre-arrival paperwork
- Purchasing Flights and Getting to your city
- Finding Housing
- Opening a bank account
- Packing
- Applying for CAF
- Lesson Plans
