I want to teach english.

3-Jul-11 15:33

My plan before I met my girlfriend was to go overseas to thailand or colombia and teach english as a second language to people in those respective countries.

I am still very interested in doing that but, due to having a girlfriend I will be staying in america. Anyone have any advice on this?

I mean I guess I could go the ESL route and teach in a school district but I have no interest in being a "regular" teacher, I just want to teach english language skills.

Or I could teach at a specific language school but I heard those are hard to break into job wise... any other ideas?

Perhaps put ads about private home visits and to state American English.

ESL would be the best route to take Ty...and seeing the number of non-English speaking students in public schools now, you're almost guaranteed a job.

Yeah Ty............if you stay in the states you could teach English as a second language.

Teach Spanish as a first language and your guaranteed a job.

English varies so much. try Liverpudlian or even yordie for example.

I am going to learn how to speak Scottish.

I am going to learn through Rosetta Stone. Some of my roots are in the true Motherland (Scotland) and I must learn the language.

If you're wanting to work in a reputable language school, you really need the CELTA qualification. You can do this at a local college over a few months, or you can go on a 4 week intensive course.

A really good website for jobs and advice is TEFL.com . I would highly recommend it - when I was a TEFL teacher i got quite a few jobs through them
