Paul asks: "What do you think of the ESL industry?" Episode Summary: I taught English as a foreign language for year, and enjoyed it immensely CELTA is a wonderful course and I highly recommend it There are a number of tensions between independent language learning and classroom teaching The challenge for ESL teachers is how best to teach a classroom of 10-20 people who come for a few hours a week Language learning ideology usually goes out the window when faced with the reality of a classroom and a language school Nevertheless, you can have a hugely positive impact on people's lives, and enrich your own life at the same time Start Speaking Today: I’d like to thank iTalki for supporting the show.
