American Language Center (ALC) in Yemen is a fun and friendly private establishment that offers short (5 week) courses in English language instruction. Our students are aged 13 to adult and are either sponsored by various organisations or are private students. With native English speakers from Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom, the USA and local Yemeni teachers, ALC is becoming the most popular and successful English language school in the port city of Aden. We're expanding rapidly and are looking to add another native English-speaking teachers to our staff. At the moment we require one more teacher, experienced preferred for August 19, 2006.

Here's a basic contract:

Job: English teacher Starting date: August 19, 2006 Requirements: Degree + TESOL or equivalent certification, experience preferred Place of work: Aden, Republic of Yemen Contract duration: 6 months or 12 months Working hours: Full-time (6 hours per day) weekdays. Mornings and/or afternoons depending on class schedule; weekends off Session duration: 5 weeks (week-long paid break follows each session) Salary (minimum and tax-free): U.S. $600.00 per month (if we pay for your airfare) OR- U.S. 800.00 per month (If you pay for your own airfare) the cost of living here is very low.

ALC pays for your entry visa, work permit, shared accommodation and (if you take U.S. 600.00 per month salary) your airfare to and from your country of origin. Optional overtime, free field trips and free Arabic classes are also on offer.

We use New Interchange, Passages, Global Links and Yemeni governmental curricula depending on which class(es) you are assigned. We also conduct TOEFL preparation and computing courses. We have local teachers to handle brand new students to English who still need instruction in Arabic you'll most likely have students in Level 2 and above. Yemeni students are a pleasure to teach since they are easy-going and eager to learn, and we keep class sizes below 15 where we can (but not more than 20 where we can't).

Below you can read feedback from an ITTT graduate regarding one section of their online TEFL certification course. Each of our online courses is broken down into concise units that focus on specific areas of English language teaching.

 

This unit has also been useful like the previous once although it was small but informative. I would also like to say here that this course has been very helpful for me in order to learn the methodology of how to organise lessons and classes. pre teaching vocabulary is a good idea before playing the audio. I also learnt in this unit how to keep the stronger and weaker students equally busy and interested in the lesson.The 14th Unit examined whether to use or not a coursebook and different materials and how these materials could assist during the lesson. It is possibly to use two kinds of materials -authentic and creative.The practical ideas of creative ideas usage were exposed. Also the Unit showed advantages and disadvantages and the best use of course books. After completion the Unit I will implement the given ideas in the class.
