I want to be a teacher

[georgegeorgia]

Please tell me the next steps to being a English teacher in Asia not particularly Thailand 

 

I'm thinking Myanmar , Vietnam, Cambodia,China , Mongolia?

 

 

I wonder why there are no foreign English teachers in the Philippines or are there??? Please let me know 

 

What are my next steps?

Can I just have a TEFLA or CELTA certificate?

What do I need exactly?

Is age against me?

What's the easiest country to be accepted?

I am excited about this

Have you got a brother called Bob? 

 

You have lots of nice stories. 😂

First go to university and learn to punctuate, spell, and use grammar correctly. You can get your point across but your ability to write in English is quite poor.

How old are you?

What is your nationality?  (and what part of your home country are you from?)

Do you have an degrees/diplomas/certificates?

Just start finding dumber than you who got some bucks to spend and you're in business!

 

Don't teach English English, teach 'merican. Much easier on ears and shorter sentences.

For home work demand listening and watching TikTok 4h a day.

In most countries you need a degree and no criminal record.

So, do you even qualify?

There is a gap in the market in Pattaya for a teacher, teach Indians walking etiquette, do classes

Get a job in the mines.  Pay is better and you might be able to save more.

 

In ten years you should have enough to retire.

Why not use the basic brains that god gave you and google teaching English as a second language school in Chiang Mai and get every last question answered within 6 minutes?

 

But noooooo.

In my view, at this late date, on either IS or IS NOT a teacher.

Teaching is in the blood, you know.

 

You can't just take a TEFL course and then call yourself a teacher.

How many foreign languages do you speak, for one thing?

Do you speak them fluently?

 

I would say, in addition, that you need to know more than your  students, which might present an insurmountable barrier to many wannabe teachers that arrive in Asia.

 

I would not get too excited, if I were you.

Teaching is not about instant gratification and immediate success.

 

Also, you need to find good students.

You might not always find good students, so easily.

 

Teaching rotten students is a thankless task.

 

Teaching for free, as a volunteer teacher, may not provide you with the type of lifestyle of which you may dream.

 

Then, one requires great patience and empathy for students, not to mention a thorough understanding of their culture.

 

When one speaks of the excitement of teaching, this mostly derives from seeing faster progress than one had originally anticipated.

 

As for me, if I were to teach, then I would only accept GENIUS students from China.

All others, I would cast aside.

I am too old to teach dumb ones.

Do you think that I could marry a rich woman...

Is there still time for me?

Also, how can I find one here in Thailand?

 

I am being completely serous now.

After having been single for more than a decade, to date, I am ready to take the plunge...if....

She has enough money.

 

Seriously.

Also, I would not spend too much of her money.

I am no Gold-Digger, by any means.
