PostHeaderIcon Teaching English To Speakers Of Other Languages In Britain

England is home to people from around the world, nearly every country is represented in our eclectic cities. Stricter immigration laws mean that the ability to speak English is a necessity, but the levels that an applicant has to meet are rarely high enough for them to hold a conversation in English for a long amount of time. It is extremely hard to integrate with the rest of society if you cannot hold a conversation with anyone outside your own circle. What is the point in moving to England if you are only going to associate yourself with your original culture and homeland?

It might be a controversial issue, but if everyone living in England is able to speak fluent English, cultures are not being erased but we are able to share our cultural differences instead of been ignorant of them. TESOL teachers can help children and adults to get a better understanding of the English language, so that they can become a part of society and not alien to it.

Teaching English to speakers of other languages (TESOL) is a rewarding and skilled career. Whilst you do not need to be a qualified teacher, to be able to teach English to immigrants you need to be of graduate level. If you are working in the private sector you can sometimes get a job without a degree but you have to have an excellent grasp of the English language. If you are working in a state school within the UK, a Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) is required on top of your degree. With a lot of subjects oversubscribed for teachers like English and history, there is a good chance of securing a job as a TESOL teacher for young graduates.

Teaching English to speakers of other languages is a less competitive field than other teaching but equally rewarding, you could make a big difference to the lives of others and learn about different cultures all the time.
