Sarah Jennings Teaching Ideas Teaching a group or small class of students has many advantages. Students who are able to speak and practice English conversation will benefit from the small group and safe environment that comes from discussions at close quarters.

Moreover, engaging in discussions and questioning each other's opinions and...  [Read more]

Linda Dunsmore Alumni Experiences There are many challenges for second language learners to gain the fluency with the English language. That includes reading and listening.

But what would happen if the native speaker speaks too fast or they don't enunciate like their teachers do?

Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences I have moved to the Czech Republic with my girlfriend who is Czech after we met in New Zealand, where I am from. Teaching English here was a business idea that she came up with because she taught English here before for 8 years.

So from this perspective, it makes a lot of sense for me to do this course. Since I am going to be teaching in Czech to begin with, I have already started to see some issues with the language learning that I will be faced with.
