 |
|
Hi, I'm an experienced EFL teacher (over six years, off and on), who's only ever taught in France and the UK.
I've now v recently moved to NYC and am trying to get the lay of the land as far as teaching ESL or EFL is concerned.
Anyone with experience in teaching here in NYC -
1) Can you advise me as to typical working conditions,
2) and what are standard hourly pay rates for ESL or EFL teachers.
3) Also: is it much better to get onto teaching ESL at a university or college ESL program than teaching EFL at a regular language school - ie are you treated better, do you earn better etc
4) and finally, do any ESL or EFL jobs offer health insurance cover?
Look forward to hearing your thoughts!
Many thanks |

| If you're thinking long-term in a metro area (with no grad degree in TESOL), then I would suggest an alternative licensure program such as i-START (NYC). This would allow you to transfer to states with reciprocity agreements or go abroad and teach at international schools, too. |
