Happy birthday to William Shakespeare!
It is said that he wrote King Lear (and a few more!) while self-isolating from various outbreaks of bubonic plague during the late 16th and early 17th centuries. What is less know is that between 1603 and 1613 Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre was closed for 78 of those 120 months, so he had plenty of time on his hands and writing was kinda his thing anyway (and as far as we know he didn’t have Netflix to distract him!), so big deal, right? 😋

Anyway, the point here: social distancing is REALLY HARD so don’t beat yourself up if you’ve not written a 100,000-word novel or composed a symphony or painted a masterpiece! Adversity may create great art like King Lear but, let’s face it, not very often! The best thing we can do is to focus on keeping ourselves safe and well, both physically and mentally, at this strange time.
That said, if you want to keep yourself occupied there’s nothing better than learning something new. We’re keeping our brains active by working on lots of exciting new plans and continuing to support you, our fabulous GEO London students, in your international educational and experiential endeavours!
As Shakespeare himself said, “What is past is prologue” and we at GEO in London are building on our collective knowledge and very much looking to the future! 🙂

Well, what a strange few weeks!

All of our London staff and faculty are now working from home. As you can see, Mary has acquired a couple of feline admin assistants! 😸😸 Mary, kalyn and Iain are all busy planning for the year ahead as best they can given the changing situation. Here they are having a Zoom chat this morning 😊 The show must go on, even if it’s with a slightly different script!
Our spring semester students left the U.K. last week and we only had a couple of days to amend their courses so we could start teaching online as of yesterday. The experiential learning part of the programme is obviously out the window, but students will still receive expert tuition and advice and, very importantly, university credit! 👍

Keep an eye on the main GEO site for any programme updates (you can find the link via their Instagram @geoabroad). There probably won’t be all that many posts on here for a little while but we wanted you to know that we’re all safe and well, and we hope you are too.
And do say hi in the comments - we’d love to hear from you! You folks are the reason we do (and love!) our jobs. 🙂

Stonehenge, sunshine, sorority squat, and Susie (reading from Thomas Hardy’s Tess of the D’Urbervilles) - a winning combination for a programme excursion! 💫

It’s Kalyn’s birthday! She mentioned she’d like a piñata to remind her of home, so her amazing colleagues obliged 😇
And now we have a pile of unusual British sweets for our students to sample!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY KALYN! 🥳

New colleague alert! Iain is our programmes assistant. He’ll be taking students on excursions, writing some exciting new content for the website, dealing with queries, and generally being a thoroughly decent chap! (He didn’t write this either!) Iain was born in Nevada and grew up in South Carolina before leaving home at sixteen to study creative writing at a boarding school for the arts. He majored in philosophy at Stanford University and spent two terms abroad at Oxford, where he spent all his money at one specific kebab truck. After graduating, Iain came to London on a teaching fellowship at St Paul’s School and stayed on an Irish passport and the dream of a brooding and glamorous life in his adopted city. Still, the Clemson Tigers will always be his team. He eats two bananas a day and goes to the cinema almost every week. In the future he hopes to teach.

Good morning from GEO (and the 1st Duke of Wellington, Arthur Wellesley on his horse there!). We’ve been having some lovely crisp bright winter weather in London recently, and hopefully it’ll stay that way to welcome our spring semester students next week!

I’m sure we’ve mentioned what a multitalented bunch of teachers and staff we have working for us! Last night we attended the launch of journalism and political science tutor @andrewwhiteheadbbc’s latest book ‘The Lives of Freda’ at the Nehru Centre in Mayfair. It’s the biography of a truly remarkable woman, and we can’t wait to read it!
More features on our staff and faculty’s ‘other jobs’ coming soon!
