Is There A Need For The English Language In The First Place? Without any need for emphasizing, English is the most sought-after foreign language in the world. It is increasingly growing as a global language, and so too is the demand for English Language teachers. In fact no one can deny that English has asserted itself on the world stage as the language of business and technology. According to statistics, in China alone, there are over 400 million learners of English. English is a well-structured language, and I believe that to be fair to these learners, there is a need for the language to be taught them methodically by teachers who have themselves been adequately trained in the subject matter. This leads us to the ultimate question: Why Complete a TEFL Course? Before I proceed, there certainly are some folks out there who may be tempted to ask this question; do I absolutely need a TEFL training and certification in order to teach English abroad? The answer is a straight NO. On a personal note, I taught English in Japan, without any TEFL training or certification. Now, having completed this 120-hour course, I can state with all certainty that both experiences are like night and day in comparison. That said, I will summarize in six short points why it is necessary to complete a TEFL course before one embarks on teaching English as a second language. 1) Better Pay: Even though schools in certain countries may still hire you without a college degree or TEFL certificate, most will pay better salaries to teachers who are TEFL-certified. 2) Lifelong Assistance: When it comes to job placement, serious TEFL -certifying institutions will provide you a lifelong assistance in job placement. This will save you the hassles you may otherwise have to endure, sometimes including scams by online "hawks" ready to prey on your desperation for a job. 3) You become an astute manager: The right TEFL course trains you in Classroom management. Whether it's managing the students, classroom space, equipment and teaching aids, do not worry! You have it all packaged together! 4) It builds your confidence: The right TEFL course covers all the aspects of life in a classroom. Unlimited teaching ideas, activities and appropriate games. In addition, lifetime help from seasoned course instructors at the certifying institution. In short, the teacher has limitless resources at his fingertips. All these build confidence as the teacher is equipped to handle any challenge that may arise. 5) Makes you a better teacher: For your own good and certainly for the sake of your students, a TEFL course makes you a better teacher. Your students deserve that! 6) Overcome Assumptions: Most native speakers erroneously think that because they can speak English, teaching it will be automatically easy. Not at all! Speaking a language is one thing, and teaching it is quite another. Teaching a language is far more complex. You will be teaching different types of learners; young, adult learners, business classes, one-on-one, large groups. All these learners come with different motivations and attitudes. The reason for a quality TEFL course is to adequately equip you for the challenges that you will certainly encounter with these diverse groups of learners. Conclusion: As a parent and guardian, just as I will be more comfortable when my child is being consulted by a trained and licensed physician, so too will it be more reassuring to entrust the teaching of that child in the hands of a trained and certified English Language teacher.
