Question:
I haven't yet finished my degree,
but would like to spend some time teaching English abroad (preferably
in Germany or Hungary, though I'd be happy to go further afield). Just
after a casual web search, it seems that most language schools are
looking for graduates. But have any of the internet's readers taught
ESL/EFL without a degree? Is it possible? What I'm hoping for is the
chance to teach for a year or so, and I'd be happy as a part-timer.
I'm also not worried at all about advancement. I'm Irish btw, and a
native-speaker of course!
Answer:
I learned to teach ESL at a community college by using experience gained
from volunteering at my church for 5 years. With a good book, some
sensitivity to the students and innate teaching ability, I think anyone
could do it. Of course, the first semester/year may be extrea challanging
