Mon, 24 Jun 2019 Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas How The Location Influences Your Teaching Resources One of the many challenges I will face as a new teacher will be the uncertainty of the location where I will be teaching. The location and educational environment will impact the resources which will be available. Regardless of the location, however, in light of the rapid expansion of the internet, and vast array of websites, I think it is likely that students will be anticipating and expecting some use of the internet. As a member of the baby-boomer generation, I grew up and was educated prior to the development of the internet and when computer use was in its infancy.

Etiquette Middle East Being an English teacher in a foreign country enables you to share aspects of your own culture with your students while they are learning English from you. This helps to broaden their minds as well as develop a better understanding of the culture behind the language they are learning.

Simple, innocent gestures from your home country could cause great offense to your hosts, while every day interactions in a new country can make a foreigner feel awkward and uncomfortable.
