Enjoying the Christmas Markets in Germany

One of my favorite experiences about teaching in Germany was visiting the Christmas markets. During December, the streets are filled with ice skating, artisan booths, lights, food, and music. At these markets you can warm up by drinking Gluehwein, which is red wine and spices served warm. A non-alcoholic version is also served. At the Christmas markets you can buy handcrafted gifts, toys, and ornaments. You can also enjoy delicious goodies like spaetzle (noodles) and bratwurst (sausage).

American TESOL offers you ways to receive a certification in teaching English so that you can teach abroad and experience the way different countries celebrate the holidays. The following links are useful if you would like to know more about teaching English in Germany:
