Thinking of going into TEFL
Posted: 12 Dec 2005, 18:54
My sitution is, I've just taken a leave of absence from a maths PGCE, planning to return to that in September next year, and I'm wanting to do something different in the meantime.
As I've heard that some TEFL jobs are half year ones starting in March/April I thought I'd look into that. I'd preferably go to Japan as I did a module on the language as part of my undergraduate degree. I'm hoping that and the fact I've classroom experience from my PGCE will outweigh the fact I've not got a formal TEFL qualification.
What sort of chance do I have?
