California Teacher Reciprocity

Santa Monica is a city in its own right although it is somewhat engulfed by its larger neighbor Los Angeles. Luckily it is not completely surrounded by L.A. as it sits right on the beautiful coast of California, and with over 300 days of sunshine there are plenty of chances to hit the beach throughout the year. The beach resort nature of the city, easy-going attitude and proximity to Los Angeles, mean its inhabitants are an interesting mix of media and business professionals, students, and surfers. There is unlikely to be a dull day in Santa Monica, which makes it the ideal place to take a TEFL/TESOL course. With its beachside location and warm weather, Santa Monica has been a popular resort town since the beginning of the previous century, drawing in tourists from the local area and all...  [Read more]

  Without a doubt, California is one of the most exciting states in the USA. Since the famous Gold Rush, that started in 1848, the state has seen a tremendous growth in popularity and wealth. “The Golden State” is one of the most ethnically diverse states in the US as it has seen huge waves of immigration from all parts of the world. On top of that, most of California offers great weather throughout the entire year and the state is also home to exceptional natural beauty, including beaches, deserts, and mountains. The northern part of the state is the perfect place for wine making. It is also home to various popular cities, including the state’s capital of Sacramento and the world-famous city of San Francisco. While San Francisco was the hippie capital of the world in the 60s...  [Read more]

San Francisco is a city of icons. It is hard to think of the united states without at least one of this city's famous landmarks coming to mind, whether it's the Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz, Haight-Ashbury or an old style cable car hauling passengers up San Francisco's famously steep streets. It is also a place with a long history of openness and inclusivity, making it one of the most diverse cities in America with many unique neighborhoods displaying their own particular identity. As well as being home to an excellent transportation network, the city is also bicycle friendly with cycle lanes and bike racks on buses. All this combines to make San Francisco an incredibly fascinating and rewarding city in which to take a TEFL/TESOL course. The Spanish first settled the area in the late 18th...  [Read more]

Situated between the major cities of San Diego and Los Angeles on the southern coast of California, Orange County is a delightful suburban area consisting of several small cities. It differs from most well populated regions in the U.S. in that it does not have a major urban center. The county's wonderful Mediterranean climate, close proximity to Los Angeles and the presence of the world famous Disneyland Park, make Orange County a popular place for TEFL/TESOL students looking for a base from which to explore the region. Originally part of Los Angeles County, Orange County came into being as its own political entity after the discovery of silver and the arrival of the railroads led to a sharp increase in its population. Its closeness to Los Angeles made it the ideal refuge for residents...  [Read more]

If you are looking for work as an ESOL teacher in the United States the best places to look are those with large immigrant populations such as Florida, California, Texas and New York. Due to immigration restrictions non-US citizens will have difficulty finding legal work in America and most jobs will tend to be reserved for US citizens only. For teaching jobs in government schools teachers will need to be licensed by the state education department. Private language schools require a TESOL certificate only. In Canada the majority of jobs can be found in Vancouver, Toronto and Ottawa. Although Canadian citizens have the best chances of securing a teaching position, those from commonwealth countries may find it easier than those from other countries. The Canadian government runs the...  [Read more]

Before we answer this question we will first look at the three most common routes towards TEFL qualifications. A TEFL qualification is usually a prerequisite when looking for TEFL employment of any kind. These are: 1) Online courses: a 120-hour TEFL certificate course is the entry level qualification for most jobs.

English is studied as an additional language by millions of people worldwide and it is generally one of the most commonly used second languages in most regions. This study can take place in a wide variety of schools and language centers, but the one thing they typically have in common is that the study is led by a language tutor known as a TEFL teacher (or a similar variant such as EFL teacher, ESL teacher, etc). A TEFL teacher’s role is to gradually build the four language skills of their students; reading, writing, speaking, and listening, to ensure they are able to reach their personal goals, whether for work, study, travel, or any other reason. Please note: the acronym TEFL stands for Teaching English as a Foreign Language. As the number of worldwide English learners is so high,...  [Read more]

Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences I haven't been a teacher for very long, but I have noticed more and more, since taking this course that a classroom can succeed if a teacher knows that teaching isn't just the passing of information. The teacher must understand that there are many different types of learners, that they must build a rapport with these learners, and they must tailor lessons based on these aspects. Teaching is more than just teaching a subject or language; this is the best thing I've learned from my ITTT classes. Types of Learners Rapport Tailoring Lessons Are you ready to teach English abroad?
