Why Take Tesol Course

If you have never taught a class of students before, it is worth taking a few moments to imagine your first lesson as an English teacher to a class of 30 students, none of whom are English speakers. Here are some fundamental questions to ask yourself before you start. If, at this very early stage of thinking about this process, you are imagining yourself to be totally out of your depth, this is a good thing, as you are probably being honest with yourself and you are probably right. Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) is not as easy as it may first appear. Being a native speaker of English does not qualify you to teach it. A TESOL course will give you a solid grounding into the areas of the English language that are commonly taught and an introduction to teaching...  [Read more]

The main reason why people take a TESOL course is because it is generally expected by employers when applying for most English teaching jobs. People from all over the world and from a wide variety of different life experiences choose to take a TESOL certification course. Some of the other major reasons for doing this are outlined below. Depending on whether you want to teach in a physical center or teach online there is a certain amount of flexibility to ESL teaching which can lead to a whole new lifestyle.

  There are many reasons to take a TEFL course, not least because it is the best way to enable you to work almost anywhere in the world as an English teacher. While there are still some countries and employers that do not require teachers to have a formal TEFL/TESOL qualification these places are gradually becoming few and far between and the days where simply being a native speaker of English were enough to guarantee a teaching job are mostly long gone. Increasingly, those hoping to teach English as a foreign language are required to have a certificate of at least 100 hours if not 120 hours. Are you ready to live and teach abroad?

There is no reason why non-native English speakers should not be able to take and successfully complete a TESOL certification course. Due to the subject matter, you will require a high standard of English to work through the training, but not being a native speaker should not stand in the way of you embarking on a new career as an ESL teacher. As a non-native English speaker you might find there are actually some advantages when teaching English abroad. The simple fact that you have already had to go through the same learning process as your students is certainly a real bonus as this can create a good rapport among the class. Often students are less afraid of making mistakes in front of a non-native English teacher and they can feel a greater incentive when taught by someone who was...  [Read more]

  Some and Any are two words that often cause confusion, which is why we have decided to take a closer look at the difference of the two words in this video. Firsly, some is a determiner used for positive statements while any is a determiner used in questions and negative statements. Consider the following situation: I asked the teacher if he could give me some paper. I said ‘Excuse me, have you got any paper?’ Unfortunately, he didn’t have any. The first statement is positive and therefore requires us to use some. The second sentence is a question and therefore, we need to use any. The third and final sentence is a negative statement which also requries us to use any. It's worth noting that we do sometimes use some in questions and we also use any in positive statements.
