Wed, 12 Jun 2019 Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas Tolerance and Cultural Sensitivity in The Classroom Since one of the essentials of being a good teacher is being respected by your students, it's very important to make sure one does not offend culturally by one's behavior or the content of the lessons. Lessons should be fun and at times feel "free" in the sense that students are laughing and interacting with each other and with the teacher perhaps in a game, but at no point should boundaries be crossed that would make students uncomfortable or put them in a defensive posture.

Wed, 13 Mar 2019 Jon ITTT Alumni Experiences Top Benefits of Knowing a Student’s Native Language Experience with foreign language is beneficial for both the teacher and the student. If students know that their teacher has some prior knowledge of their native language, it will make early communication easier for both parties. While I feel learning the student's language is important for early communication, it shouldn't be used more than needed. The goal of the TEFL teacher is to assist students in their acquisition of the English language. It is possible that using the student's native language could present difficulties. I believe that commending a student on correctly completing a task in both English and their native language creates another learning opportunity for them. If...  [Read more]

The demand for English teachers, particularly in Asia, is quite high and this has called for many schools and English learning centers in Asia to look to hire native English speakers. As demand is high, there often is a compromise on the quality of the teachers. Working with young children requires specific skill sets that often can be taught but must also come naturally.
