|
|
I've been working in ESL/EFL since '95 and have worked in such diverse places as Korea and Saudi Arabia from language institutes to universities. However, I always felt a lack of security in these positions. For the last three years, I've been working at DLI in San Antonio, Texas. It's been great!! You want a career? You got it complete with federal retirement benefits. You don't want to work in the states? No, problem. Since I started working there, I've done six-month assignments in Slovakia, Japan and currently, Djibouti. When I decide to return to the US, I just slide right back behind my old desk.
Why am I writing this? Well, I've been a long time reader of this forum and I know about some of the negative situations that are out there. I just want everyone to know that there are professional positions for EFL instructors. You just have to look for them.
Good luck,
PS Check out my blog for pictures of some of my recent travels!!

Are there any photos? I saw one photo. Maybe I'm missing something. |

I'd like to hear more about the teaching and job requirements/benefits. |

Thanks for checking it out. It's only three days old and grows a little every day slowly but surely. I have a permanent photo at the bottom of myself in Djibouti and a slide show at the top. The slide show will change weekly according to my current plans.
For the benefits/requirements go to http://www.dlielc.org/ and click the 'ESL Job opportunities' tab. If you have any more questions, please send me a pm. I'm happy to help. |
