This advanced certification to Teach English as a Foreign Language to Children was sponsored by the company I work for, Disney English. This course by TEFL-C International is associated with Teachers College Columbia University.

Korean teenagers flew from Seoul to participate in this English Summer Camp. I was the instructor with the most number of students and apparently became among the popular ones because of my playfulness to the kids and how I looked somewhat like a Korean. ^^

For the very first time, I was exposed to working online in an office. We catered mostly to Koreans but due to my Chinese background, I was asked to teach a number of Chinese clients who needed help with their English.
I also conducted pronunciation seminars for the teachers in the company.

Doing freelance work helping clients with their English. I teach online and offline. I've even helped Filipinos prepare for embassy interviews for visa applications.

The Philippine National Red Cross (PNRC) in the city has a caregiver program catering to Filipinos. I teach subjects like Cultural Adaptation, Personality Development, and most importantly, Communication Skills Development. 
I always conduct classes in a room with a number of students not less than 15.

Most of the duration of my stay with Skybel, I was the appointed Head Teacher of the manager. I managed the teachers and discuss their concerns to the managers. Apart from evaluating the skills of students of this company, it became my job to evaluate the skills of the teachers wanting to teach in Skybel.

I have been most fortunate to be offered the job to be not just a writer but to be the assistant editor-in-chief for a monthly newspaper based in Alberta, Canada. It has been my dream to land a writing job for not only am I passionate in teaching English, I'm passionate in writing using the said language.
At present, I continue to explore the possibilities of being a writer for this wonderful newspaper. I love every opportunity presented to me by this company.

Develop Your English for Success

It was a self study course with a writing assignment on the theory that underpins the assessment of teacher trainees.  It had to be completed in 30 days.

It enabled my employer’s program, SEE TEFL, to obtain certification from TQUK, the Training Qualifications for UK organizations and it enabled me to obtain skills to assess new EFL teachers.

Trainees were required to study for 120 hours of onsite classroom skills training that included 6 observed teaching practices with real students at a range of real schools.  

It enabled me to be a successful teacher in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) classrooms. It gave me practical skills training, language awareness training and cultural awareness training.

I was required to be a full time computer programming student for six months. It had 840 hours of classroom instruction.  It enabled students to obtain an entry-level position as a COBOL computer language programmer.

My role gave me an understanding of the information technology industry. I was responsible for supporting the computer and database systems. I also developed and managed websites, social networks, and Google Apps systems. In addition, I hired and trained telemarketers for fundraising campaigns and trained office staff on software. I also made direct fundraising calls, including supporters and cold calls, which led to the development of a base of over 200 contributors annually.

I was responsible for software quality during function, performance and regression test phases. And I developed data collection systems for end users.

I was responsible for writing test scripts, developing test cases and analyzing automated test tools. And I assisted in establishing standards and procedures for the quality assurance department.

Teaching online with EF gave me the experience of teaching English to people from all over the world. It also showed me that online teaching can be more effective than some classroom environments. I taught adult learners for both private and group lessons. I was the Service Award winner for August 2021 and earned a supplemental fee every month

Teaching grammar and learning methods to native speaking trainees gave me much more of an understanding of effective ESL lessons. It also gave me more experience in assessing ESL lessons and providing constructive feedback.

The focus of the curriculum was on speaking skills, so it helped me develop activities to increase fluency. They were young adult students, so it taught me how to improve my teaching to more mature learners.

This was my first EFL teaching position, it helped with classroom management and creating productive games for young learners. I taught English for Math and Science to 1st thru 6th grade students. I also was the main English teacher for the 2nd graders which I had to teach reading, writing, listening and speaking.
