TEFL Information Teaching Ideas
Do you dream of using your TEFL certification to teach online? Online teaching is booming, and it's an amazing opportunity, but working for an online teaching company also has its pitfalls: it's hard to tell which companies are legit, wage information can be scarce, and you can be treated like a number rather than a person. The internet is unfortunately full of online teachers' horror stories of being treated like replaceable commodities. To make matters even more confusing, social media is crawling with recruiters and teachers posting referral links to work at their companies. It's hard to know who to trust!

TEFL Information Alumni Experiences
It is difficult to find any official figures regarding the number of TEFL and TESOL training centers worldwide, but it would be reasonable to estimate that they number in the thousands. The vast majority of countries worldwide regulate their education through the government, which applies to both public and private enterprises. Consequently, there are different regulations and requirements for each country concerning eligibility to teach ESL.
You must have some form of ESL qualification.
There must be some form of accreditation.
You must have a good working knowledge of the English language.

The Most Common Problems Students in South Korea Face When Learning English - TEFL Blog
Linda Dunsmore
Destinations Alumni Experiences
Korean learners of the English language face numerous challenges in acquiring the language on a proficient level, although English is introduced to children at an early age. English is incorporated into the primary school curriculum from the age of four, yet only a small minority master the language on a proficient conversational level. Unfortunately, the reasons seem to stem from cultural and social differences, the significant differences between the two languages; Korean and English, and the Korean Educational System is also a contributing factor.
