Each person is born with an innate skill they are incredibly proficient on without even trying. Among one of those skills, it is the skill to teach others, or being able to explain a given concept in a clear and concise way. If you are one of the latter, then you are reading the right article. To be an English teacher is a fulfilling and rewarding but yet busy experience and age is not of consequence, it is a well-known fact. So, it is imperative that you are passionate about what you do or would like to learn how to do. Now, if you decide that you would like to train with us to become an English Tutor, then you will have the pleasure of meeting enthusiastic students from every country around the world.
Whether you already have worked as an English language homestay tutor or if you are about to become one, and you would like to be part of our team, we cannot wait to hear from you.
Throughout this course, you will learn five basic categories: writing, speaking, listening, reading and lastly viewing. If it is a new learning phase, for you, then you will learn to interact with people that come from different ways of thinking and cultures. This will give you the ability to adapt your lessons according to each student’s needs. It will be able to improve your teaching skills on a daily basis.
One of the requirements is for you to be a teacher is to have a degree of a 2:2 or above. You need to have a (QTS) which is a qualified teacher status, and some school experience. This is a requirement in order to teach in a state school in the United Kingdom. A few private schools and academies might recruit teachers without a degree, but it would be difficult to progress.
You should have a well-known EFL or teaching certificate. We have some flexibility on the type of EFL Certificate, but it should be close to a Celta or something similar. If you come from the State School System, then we will need for you to show a B.Ed and a well-known teaching certificate.
If you have a diploma or are knowledgeable in fields such as Commerce, Law, Aviation or Medicine, then I strongly suggest for you to let us know.
Most courses are of about 120 hours. But in our case, students can choose the number of hours that they would like to study with their tutor. This is usually done up to three hours a day, five days a week, but you also choose from ten hours a week up to thirty hours.
As I mentioned before Throughout this course, you will learn five basic categories: writing, speaking, listening, reading and lastly viewing. You will also have the significant advantage to learn to interact with people that come from different ways of thinking and cultures. This will give you the ability to adapt your lessons according to each student’s needs. It will be able to improve your teaching skills on a daily basis.
In an English class, you will teach other students a new language that it is not their own and present to them an understanding of a new culture which is part of what it means to learn a new language.
The way to stay to standard certification begins with having an undergraduate degree. Every teaching candidate should specialize on the age range and grade level that they wish to teach. For instance, a major in Elementary education would be perfect for those who are looking to teach kindergarten through 5th grade. Another factor that is necessary to have is traditional licensure like the completion of a teacher preparation programme. You can be a teaching candidate and also complete our programme in a simultaneous fashion.
All certification programmes should include basic and practical teaching experience which is why with our course you will have intense and daily interaction with students.
When you complete your teacher preparation programme, you will be able to take the exams that are required for prospective educators. If you have financial difficulties, then you should plan for the fee that you will be paying.
I sincerely hope that this guide was of use to you. But one of the main factors is for you to be extremely informed about which are your alternatives and which path would you like to take. But I can surely say that our course will give tools that will last for a lifetime.
A few alternative programmes are nationwide, while others may be regional. Some programmes are to motivate talented people to become professional teachers. So you should look for a curriculum or course that it suits your needs.
Another factor that I consider necessary to mention is that there are different methods of teaching English that can be put together under a single term. But not all English teachers would agree on this matter due to the fact that they consider not accurate to only use one term to describe how a language should be taught. The term TESOL is used in American English, and it includes TEFL and TESL. This is also used in Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. But it is a well-known fact that British English uses ELT because it has a slightly different and specific meaning. ELT is an abbreviation for the term English Language Teaching. Now, TEFL teaches the English language to students with various first languages. This type of teaching can take place in a school system or in a more private environment with a private tutor.
I certainly hope that this small informational guide was of use to you. If you have more questions, please do not hesitate to call us! We cannot wait to hear from you!Next teacher training course is on:
