Audge asked:


I have been asked to submit a proposal for teaching ESL to the parents of the kids that attend a private school in Mexico. Is it appropriate to propose that I get paid according to how many students I have or per class per hour? I am a first time teacher of ESL and not familiar with how this works.

Alicia asked:


I am going to begin tutoring an ESL/EFL student next week. The focus of this, as set by the parents, is for him to pass the SSAT and TOEFL after about a year or two years so he can go to high school at a boarding school in the US.

I didn’t even know what the SSAT was until a couple weeks ago. So could anyone give me some tips, good websites, or book/study guide suggestions?

He needs to get a 2200 on the SSAT.
