Teaching English

InternationalTodd asked:


I have higher education but do not have a Bachelors!
I am a native English speaker, and have taught English as a second language to many.

BARBARA S asked:


I believe there are courses I can enrol on to gain qualification in teaching english as a second language.

smiley asked:


I am currently a teacher, with a M.A in Special Education, for a high school and want to an endorsement in a more specific field. I have a B.A in English so I enjoy reading and helping students evaluate a text, but I’d like to travel and enjoying working with diverse populations and cultural groups so I also like the thought of teaching English as a second language

Any thoughts or suggestions on which to pursue?
I think I could just get both, but I’d like some information from those with first hand experience also

Hello people. I always wnated to be a high school english teacher, but now i am thinking that i might want to teach ESL(English as a second language). So i was wondering, if i go to college and study to become an English teacher, but then change my mind and choose to teach ESL, can i do that? will i have to take any additional classes?

jujubean asked:


I have been teaching English as a Second Language for about 20 years now (I have a Masters, and am licensed to teach K-12), but I’m getting tired of working full-time in the schools. I would love to work from home, but can’t figure out how to get started teaching online, or even if it would be possible to support us by this method. Does anyone have any experience and/or helpful advice that could either get me started or steer me away from it? Thanks!

Gonzo asked:


If I am moving to a country is there a book that shows the country’s laws, taxes, customs and ideologies?

I am deciding between Spain and South Korea but I am not sure about Spain since they dislike North Americans so much (as least when I went). Do the people of South Korea like North Americans? Is there a book or accurate travel book that could give me a feel for a country before I go? What country in Europe or Asia welcomes Americans the most? I am planning to work with ESL so if anyone has worked in this field any help would be great or any advice would be appreciated.

Michael asked:


Just looking for YES or NO results. Primary research for potentially opening an after school program for ages 5-17 that focuses on teaching English as a Second Language to students whose native language is other than English - especially focused on children with Spanish and Asian native languages.

I want to get a quality certification that is recognized internationally so I can find a job teaching english abroad.

I’m a student and I’m having a hard time with english as a second language mistakes when I write my essays even though I have good ideas. Therefore, I’m afraid to fail my class just besause of those mistakes especially for someone who is taking an EN102 class.
Thanks for taking time to read my email and I will appreciate any answers or solutions to solve my problem.
