"I think that you need to read the topic and OP's post. The OP was asking for links to sites that offer information about schools including EF and others."
- clark.w.griswald
That's really all. I was just thinking of coming to China. Not anymore, mind, but it would have been nice to find out something about other schools. It just sounds to me like China is not the place to do ESL. Unless someone can tell me where I can find a job teaching REAL esl, not high school theatrics with students who don't care? |

Sorry to take up your time.
Did you open any of those links I gave you?
People get cynical about newbies here and I understand why. At least the OP had the courtesy to tell us he'd changed his mind. Most just post a request and disappear. That's trolling. |

Ultraman, what exactly do you consider *real* EFL? Teaching to students who "don't care" goes with the territory. Only after you've paid your dues can you be more selective. You're going to encounter apathetic students wherever you go. Get used to it or get out. |

I smell something here. Good thinking and a rather suggestive site you�ve chosen!
And here are the EF DOS Gregor and Buxiban cofounder Clark. How intriguing! Roger is their �blind dog� leading them, isn�t he? Don�t loose your way, guys!
Cheers and beers |
Englishgibson,
your time is running out! You are a single-issue man - let me inform you you are not going to last if you cannot broaden your mind and your interests!
I am beginning to suspect I showed you too much sympathy when you were crying wolf back when you started that thread about EF Huizhou!
Maybe, maybe, your then employer had a really good and valid reason to get rid of you!
Your behaviour is anything but rational! IT is disgraceful! |
"A blind dog" on EF threads is talking again! And as usual: "I SUSPECT, I ASSUME, I THINK, MAYBE" etc are the common words to express ..... however little knowledge, experience or evidence provided to support the thread's topics. Man, I'll give you my sympathy.
I am logging off this handicapped thread. Have fun guys!
Cheers and beers |

Easy. Go to an English speaking country with a high migrant/refugee intake. Find out who provides their English classes, and sign up as a teacher. You'll need more than a TEFL cert. though.
Migrant Ed. is the most satisfying ESL/EFL work I've done, as the students are adults who desperately want to learn. |
