Re: Non-native degree Teachers vs non-degree Teachers
Typically in Asian countries, and for teaching English in language schools (not universities), the degree requirement is a government requirement for getting a work permit. It is often not a requirement of the employer and has little to do with ability to teach English. Indeed, the degree can often ...

Re: Assignment Help: Reading for Gist
If you turned your phone sideways you’d see that it comes up jagged, unlike the first paragraph.
If you’re looking for help you’d do best to make things as readable as possible.
It may explain why no-one has answered your question.
I could be wrong.

Yes there is a link and it works
Personally I find the language obtuse. What does “dynamic data point” even mean?

Re: Question about qualifications and employment
TESOL (not TSOL) is equivalent to TEFL (as laid out in the links above).
It stands for Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages.
Three of the most recognised certs are:
Cambridge Celta (which is a TEFL certificate)
CertTESOL (by Trinity)
SIT TESOL

Re: Question about qualifications and employment
Note that governments don't usually insist on this or that English-teaching qualification. What they often do, however, is to demand that candidates have a university degree (in any subject). This is usually related to work visa requirements - nothing to do with academic requirements.

Re: verb-subject order in statements
My understanding is that these are not actual questions . They are in fact instructions (or even imperatives) formulated in question style to be polite , but in fact the speaker does not expect to receive an answer such as "Yes, I could" or "No, I couldn't" :) This is very common...
