What I learned About a Teacher’s Attitude During My TEFL Certification Course
During my Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) certification, I learned several valuable lessons. While knowing the English language and how to relay that to those who are learning the language is important, the most important lesson I learned is how a teacher's attitude directly affects student interaction and class rapport.

The Ways English Influences Students’ Future Career
English is a language of the world and provides unique experiences for each person that knows it or has a desire to learn it. It is being taught more and more frequently throughout schools across the world and really has developed as a global language. It is common knowledge in the workforce that anyone with a greater understanding of the English Language will be considered more preferable over someone who doesn't. This makes it a highly valuable skill and students are beginning to realize its importance.

3 Main Advantages of a Non-Native English Teacher
We have a saying; who knows something very well, cannot teach very well. If you are not a native speaker but you are a teacher in that language, you are well-prepared and working more than a native English speaker to avoid being tomfoolery and embarrassed in front of your students. This takes you one step ahead of someone whose native language is English. So here are 3 main advantages of a non-native English teacher.

The Ways a TEFL Instructor Influences Their Learners
Teachers are people who help, motivate, and encourage students to acquire knowledge. Their role in society should not be underestimated, as they tend to have a significant influence on student achievement, discipline, and overall intelligence. Many personality characteristics can be linked with a good teacher, such as their ability to be kind, patient, lively, knowledgeable, and caring amongst many other things. Their primary role in the classroom, however, should be to effectively encourage learning. Almost everyone can name a teacher who stands out amongst the rest not because they gave easy A's, but rather due to their ability to fully engage and inspire their class.

ESL Teacher's Personality in The Center of Attention
English teaching is an art form, and like any other art form, it requires dedication and perseverance. If we were to ask each student what makes a great English teacher, we would end up with a myriad of answers. I think one of the most important qualities that an English teacher should have is patience. We cannot build rapport with students in the absence of patience. Most would argue that a good command of the English language is the" it" factor when choosing the most suitable English teacher. In general, patience and flexibility are what helps a teacher build rapport with their students. Students all learn at different paces and have different... [Read more]

At its core, teaching students online offers positive and negative consequences. Children are often at home when they take these classes. It means that they do not have to travel to a specific location to learn English. They can learn in an environment that is already comfortable for them, perhaps mitigating some of the anxieties they might feel. While its convenience is the main appeal for most people, it offers challenges that can detract from a student's potential to learn and fully understand the English language. It is important that when a teacher decides to begin teaching online classes, he or she be aware of these problems as well as ways to combat them to ensure that the students have... [Read more]

One of the most important traits a teacher can bring into the classroom is confidence. According to the Merriam-Webster Dictionary Confidence is "a feeling or consciousness of one's powers or reliance on one's circumstances" and " faith or belief that one will act in a right, the proper, or efficient way". When a teacher is confident in the classroom it will help create a more relaxed and trusting environment.
