Teaching English as a second or foreign language is one of the most rewarding, but also challenging, professions you can choose to enter. With the ever-increasing demand for qualified English language teachers in schools and abroad, it’s never been easier to get started as a teacher of English. One of the biggest challenges facing new EFL teachers is how to recruit and retain students. A great way to entice new students is by offering them incentives such as cash, gifts and special weekend events with their favorite teacher. Here are some insider tips on how you can be more successful as an EFL teacher:
Teach for the money you’ll get paid
As a teacher, you’ll need to earn a certain amount each month in order to meet your basic expenses (rent, food and transportation) as well as to build a respectable savings account. You’ll need to make a salary that’s good enough to cover your monthly expenses and to create a small-but-important savings fund. However, there’s another factor to consider when you’re looking for a teaching job: how much can you expect to earn per hour? There are several factors to consider when you’re looking for a teaching job. First, you’ll need to consider the level of education you have. You’ll also need to consider where you’re applying for a job. Finally, you’ll also need to factor in the cost of living in the places where you’ll be working. You’ll need to make sure that the salary you can expect to earn as a teacher is enough for you to live a comfortable life.
Find a way to make the class interesting for your students
When your students arrive at the classroom, they’re most likely in a bad mood. They might have had a bad day at work, etc. They might be struggling with their studies. And they might not be feeling very confident in their English skills. First, you’ll need to understand why they’re in a bad mood and what’s making them feel like they’re not able to succeed in their studies. Once you know this, you can start to make the class more interesting for your students. You can do this by telling stories, by singing songs, by playing games, or by doing anything else that will help to break the ice. If you have a few minutes in the beginning of class, you can ask your students to introduce themselves to the class and to tell the other students what they liked to do when they were younger.
Be a role model for your students
As a teacher, you’re expected to be a role model for your students. This means that you need to set a good example for them. You need to show them how to behave in class, how to study effectively, how to complete their assignments and how to communicate with each other in class. As a teacher, you need to be especially mindful of how you communicate with your students. You need to communicate with them in a clear, concise, and respectful manner. You also need to keep in mind that most of your students are from other countries and cultures.
Don’t forget to have fun!
As a teacher, you’ll need to be disciplined and organized. You’ll also need to be patient and understanding with your students. Above all, you’ll need to remember to keep things fun and enjoyable in the classroom. Teaching is one of the most rewarding professions you can choose to enter.
