How much is TEFL certification in the UK?
The UK, being an English-speaking nation, produces a considerable number of TEFL certified teachers who find employment in various countries worldwide. However, due to the high cost of living, many opt for online TEFL training or pursue it in a foreign center, where operational costs are lower and there is a high demand for qualified instructors.

Punishment in the Classroom: Is it Correct or Not?
Since we should appraise students, we should punish them as well. I do not believe that the decision of whether or not to punish is up to us. Therefore, discipline is a key to success for both teachers and students. Thus, once we deal with a bad conduct case, there are strategies to use to overcome it.

What is the difference between TESOL and TEFL? - ✔️ ✔️ ✔️ TEFL FAQs
What is the difference between TESOL and TEFL?
There is often much confusion surrounding these acronyms but essentially they mean the same thing.
TEFL = Teaching English as a Foreign Language
TESOL = Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages
Where are TEFL and TESOL most commonly used?
The above are generally used interchangeably, however, TEFL is most commonly used within the UK and TESOL is usually preferred in Australia and the USA. Although some countries may favor one acronym over the other, it is important to remember that a TEFL certification and a TESOL certification are exactly the same thing as the training involved is identical.

Advantages of Teaching English to Kindergarten Level Students
The most challenging activity for adults and the enjoyable learning of children is language learning. This ability of children to learn a new language has been confirmed by various studies. At the same time, in early language education, children have a much better pronunciation ability than adults. The reason behind all this closeness is that the children's brains are much more flexible and adapt to a new language more easily. Because they learn the language by hearing, repeating, and imitating. Everything they learn is recorded in the main area of ​​the brain. This makes the learning process much shorter. Another reason is perhaps the most effective.... [Read more]

How many hours do EFL teachers teach?
Before we look at this question closely, we should first make an important distinction. The number of hours you teach in the classroom (often called contact hours) are not the same as the number of hours you will be expected to be in school, often confusingly called contract hours.
Next, it is important to appreciate that different teaching jobs have different typical hours. There are basically three types of jobs available.
Government and Private Schools
Most schools abroad work normal office hours so you will probably need to be in school, Monday to Friday, from 7:30 a.m. (in many Asian countries) until 4:00 p.m. This equates to around 40 hours per week.
