I came to Milan at the beginning of the 1990′s and taught English as a foreign language. My early teaching years correspond with my period of greatest cartoon productivity. Check out my cartoons from this period of my life from the list under the “cartoons about teaching English” page.
Below is an example. This is one of the first ones I did. A lot of these cartoons are about what being a teacher is like: the saintly behaviour you have to display towards your students, the frustration and boredom seething below the surface, and the endless opportunities for embarassment. I actually enjoyed teaching a lot, although you’d never know it from these cartoons.
