    Then why are you getting involved?

    You admit you know fuck all about the industry, but you're on this thread (as I knew you would be).

    Here are a few words of advice for future reference: keep your trap shut about things you know fuck all about.

    Ok?

    I tell you what I do know.

    I know that I want feck to do with TEFLrs, CELTAs, DELTAs and I'm guessing now TYLECs.

    I know that the vast majority that wash up on Asia's shores with such 'qualifications' are the flotsam and jetsam of humanity and I want naught do with such grifters and scroungers.


    But maybe you are one of the good ones...

    I heard good things about that extension course. Did my CELTA in Bangkok back in 2006. Fun times living in BKK and befriending many folks from England. I decided to do the course after teaching ESL in SK for four years. Then went on later to teach ESL in China within International Schools.

    I don't think I'd take that extension course though, as I am a trained Elementary teacher here in Canada.

    That'll be why you've 'moved on' then

    Moved on implies I was once there.

    Wrong again.

    For sure it’s a topic you know sfa about but, as we see every day, that never puts you off commenting.

    Strangely enough I don’t see much in the way of interesting and informative contributions from yourself or the other TEFLr ‘experts’ here. Why is that?

    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Well we don't all feel the need to repost every news article from ABC.net for a start

    ^^Well, clearly you would not consider anything on the topic to be interesting or informative, so your question is disingenuous.

    You better stick to trying to think up a gag that makes sense on the ‘singapore’ thread.

    You’ve a way to go.

    This thread was a pure troll thread aimed at the likes of you and, predictably, you're all over it with your nonsense.

    There are thousands of "good ones" around the world. Just because somebody can wash up in Thailand with no qualifications and get a 30k a month job doesn't make it so for everybody. That's a sad indictment on Thailand- not the industry.

    And regarding your comment about qualifications, the CELTA and TYLEC are level 5 qualifications on the UK's Regulated Qualifications Framework, certified by Cambridge and Trinity.

    The DELTA is level 7, the same as an MA.

    Haven't you got an MA?

    Do you think these people are the flotsam and jetsam of humanity?

    Is DELTA equivalent to a degree?
    Ofqual, the exams regulator of the UK government, has confirmed that Cambridge ESOL's Delta qualification for teachers is at the same level as a Master's degree or a professional diploma in the European Union.

    doesn’t seem very happy to help, I must say.


    but something called a Diploma and takes 8 weeks to complete is apparently equivalent to a 2 year Masters course?

    You’re is a pikey, not a Serb. That’s what happens when you jump into other conversations.
