Teacher

Hi!  My name is Jessica Taylor, and I am a teacher and world traveler!  My passion is teaching my students about the world.  For ten years, I taught World Geography to 9th graders and loved every minute of it!  Six years ago, I embarked on a new journey: exiting the social studies department and entering the world of Career Technology Education.  I run a program for high school students who want to become teachers. The classes in this program are career-focused on the education profession.  All of the students in my classes are aspiring teachers.  I am fortunate to teach a senior level course that will allow students to do an internship, where they spend about four hours per week in an actual classroom so that they can get a realistic view of the field of education.  I absolute love what I teach and making an impact on the field of education...one young teacher at a time!

World Traveler

I've led 17 EF Tours since 2009.  I fell into the whole student travel thing, and can't believe how much it has impacted my life.  Prior to the first student tour I traveled on, I had never left the country.  Now, just a few years later I have been to six continents and 47 different countries!  I'm known now as "the travel lady" at my school, and its a title that I will proudly bear.  Scroll down to see all of my tours!

Global Education Ambassador

In addition to teaching, I also serve as a Global Education Ambassador (GEA) for EF Tours.  I help new Group Leaders in the Dallas-Ft.Worth area become equipped and confident about their upcoming tour.  I absolutely love being a GEA, and I am so thankful to work with a company who provides such a great resource for their teachers.  Contact your EF Tour Consultant if you would like to talk with a GEA near you!
