Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas The general importance of volunteering is known by most people. Volunteering helps people, causes, and organizations that typically cannot afford resources, and so greatly benefit from volunteers and donations. Volunteer teaching, particularly teaching ESL learners, is no different. Private tutors are expensive and not all can afford to send their children or themselves to one, and so I want to emphasize the importance of volunteering at centers or schools that teach ESL learners. This post was written by our TEFL certification graduate Kayla C. Please note that this blog post might not necessarily represent the beliefs or opinions of ITTT.

Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas Education is defined as the process of receiving or giving systematic instruction in a formal setting (Cambridge Online Dictionary, 2019).

Kayla Hill Destinations Hong Kong is a great place to teach, especially if it’s your first time living abroad.

You can enjoy beach barbecues, boat parties, and beautiful hikes well into late November. If you enjoy traveling during public holidays and your summer break, Hong Kong is a great place to be if you want to explore Asia. You can fly to Taiwan,...  [Read more]

Kayla Hill Destinations TEFL Information So, you’re interested in teaching English in Hong Kong? Although there are many avenues in which to do this, one particular program that is unique to Hong Kong is the Native English Teacher (NET) Scheme. I’ve just started my fourth consecutive year teaching in a local school in the New Territories in Hong Kong, and the scheme has definitely provided me with plenty of opportunities.

The Education Bureau (EDB) of Hong Kong recruits native speakers from English-speaking countries around the world to give students a chance to interact and learn English from a foreigner. Hong Kong is an attractive city for teachers, as the salary is higher than that in many...  [Read more]
