As someone who speaks English, you're already in an excellent position to teach it!If teaching English is something you'd like to do during your gap year, or in the future, it's well worth doing a Teaching English as a Foreign Language course (TEFL for short).

TEFL Jobs Abroad - getting to grips with teaching
TEFL courses will get you thinking about some of the psychology behind teaching - for example, how the students might view you (in many countries, just being English will make you a celebrity!) and how they might respond to teaching methods.
Remember being shy about speaking a foreign language in front of your classmates? The chances are some of your future students will be too, and a TEFL course will help you get the best out of your pupils. |
TEFL Jobs Abroad - ideas for activities
If your mind goes blank at the prospect of filling an hour with interesting but educational lessons, a TEFL course will point you in the direction of activities that you can then adapt and develop to suit your classes.
TEFL Jobs Abroad - a confidence booster!
A TEFL course will help give you the confidence to just get up there and do it. Most people are nervous about standing at the front of a classroom for the first time but if you've got a qualification, you'll feel a lot more positive.
TEFL Jobs Abroad - pack it with your passport!
The beauty of a TEFL qualification is that once you've got it, you can take it all over the world. You might fancy teaching English again after university, and if you do, you'll be in a great position to find work in places like China and Thailand. And even if you don't, a TEFL qualification is a valuable asset to your CV. |
