I have to say I stuggle with trying to understand how you can either be a good teacher or bad teacher,based on some of your comments.

As I understand it,to teach in the UK you need to have gained A levels and then go to university to gain your degree,after that you then attend a one/two year course on how to teach.I am not sure if this is correct,so please do correct me.If you want to teach English then you will need a degree in English.

So let me get this straight, in Thailand you can attend a TEFl course and then teach,this takes how long?

You then become a good or bad teacher...?
