Can anyone help me?
i am looking to go and live for maybe 2 years in spain but not in areas where the international schools are based.(my partner is spanish and i would live with her - so to start with i am only looking for part time work, and money is not too much of an issue to begin with),
I am considering teaching english as a foreign language, maybe in an academy or private tuition. Many people seem to recommend CELTA as the ultimate, however its expensive and does not seem to be available in a pure online version. I am an experienced teacher of 13 years and i am currently employed full time in th uk teaching A level ICT, i have also worked in 11 to 16 schools, so i dont feel i need the classroom experience side of things, however i do need the grounding of english grammar etc. So, would an online tefl be acceptable? (much cheaper and convenient), or would it limit my opportunities / rule me out of applying for certain jobs?
So, i would like your opinion, would an online tefl course be enough? would it help me get work? Would there be opportunities for someone in my position?
any help welcome!
thanks
