When Can I Get Teaching Certificate After Applied

Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences Most people have dreams of traveling or working abroad. Many times, unfortunately, we believe it’s out of our grasp. However, that is not true.

Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences To say that an English Teacher should complete a TEFL course is an understatement, an English Teacher must complete a TEFL course and obtain a TEFL certificate.

Margaret Paton TEFL Information Alumni Experiences So, you’ve got your shiny new TESOL or TEFL certificate in hand. What now? Like you, I’m a new starter to this career of teaching English to non-native speakers, so I wanted to share five tips on what not to do in your early days. In short, having been a K-12 teacher might not get you through, be flexible about your availability, you might need a police check and your skills might not be valued in particular countries. Build up some experience, even if it’s voluntary. Even before I enrolled in the ITTT TESOL course, I was already reaching out to agencies who were hungry for native English speakers for tutoring work.

Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas Is formal education and training such as a TEFL course necessary to be an effective and successful teacher of English? Some may argue that as long as there is a sound knowledge of the subject, teaching English especially to speakers of other languages is easy and straightforward. However, exhibiting knowledge of a subject matter is very different from having the ability to teach the subject to other people. To become a good teacher, there are specific qualities, skills, and techniques that must be demonstrated and applied in teaching. A TEFL course or certificate can provide and encourage these skills and techniques to achieve successful language teaching. This post was written by our TEFL certification graduate Rhomeliz M. Please note that this blog...  [Read more]
