tefl coursesCongratulations to Jacqueline for just successfully completing our TEFL course.

After completed our TEFL course, she has secured a great teaching job in China.

Here is what she has to say about our TEFL course.

"This TEFL course has taught me so much.  Not only was this a fun and great learning experience but I have learnt so many wonderful ways to teach.  I believe that this TEFL course has made me a better teacher and I am extremely grateful for that.

I will recommend that anyone going teach abroad has to do this TEFL course to learn the correct ways of teaching someone the English language.

I am sure that this will make the transfer from one country to another all the more easy because now I am already aware of what is expected from me. Thank you dearly".

Jacqueline, it has been a pleasure having you in our TEFL course.

I wish you all the best with your teaching career.

I look forward to getting an update from Jacqueline once she has started teaching abroad.

5 Mistakes English Teachers Make They Teach English Abroad

Here are the top 5 mistakes new English teachers make when they teach English abroad:teach english abroad

1. Talk Too Fast

When you teach English, you need to speak very slowly or your students won't understand a word you are saying. New teachers often talk way to fast.

2. Don't Pronounce Their Words

When you teach English abroad, you need to separate each word when you speak. For example, how/are/you. You will feel like you are talking like a robot but this is completely normal.

3. Don't Simplify Their English

When you teach English, you need to speak using simple sentences. For example, instead of saying, what did you get up to last weekend? You would say, what did you do last weekend? This makes it easy to understand what you are talking about.

4. Use Slang

When you teach English abroad, don't use slang because your students won't understand. Students are not taught slang in school.

 5. Use Contractions

When your teach English abroad, avoid using contractions when you speak. Instead of saying 'I'm' say 'I am'. Students have a hard time understanding contractions.
