Thread: Why do some people think that "staying on to do a bit of teaching" is hippy-ish?

When will folks stop whipping this dead horse?

do a degree in Education and end up doing Tefl in Thailand - now that would be a loser.


Do you really need a degree to play Monopoly and musical chairs?

You can do an intensive 4 wk course at some places (8hrs a day, 5 days a week) - gets it over and done with quickly.

not really required mate.

a BEd doesnt make one smart, just goes to show that you could stick it out at Uni for 3 or 4 years.

Also tat's or lack of tat's dont make one a good or bad teacher

When will folks understand the difference between a TEFLer and a teacher?

A TEFLer can work in the UK/US/Aus etc., with basically the same qualifications as they need here.

The young students love it - no need to feel sorry for them.

Then there's always Uno to look forward to after the break!

I am a top teacher.

here's a good video to use for teaching simple sentence structure...

Practical English

hippy-ish?

I wonder if this phrase will catch on?

You know what these Kao Sarn Road Lonely Planet types are like^^^

Is being a Kao Sarn Road Lonely Planet type a bad thing?

I could never afford it myself, traveling around the world ain't cheap you know, but looks like it might be fun if one was 19 or 20.

Yes, it's a terrible affliction

I think that YES sometimes it can be, especially the types that read from the damn book whilst walking around at the same time,

I've seen them in Oh My Cod! chip shop looking around the place asking others why it is not included in the Lonely Planet, which is sad really because Chris didn't want it in there otherwise he would have paid for advertising, wouldn't he?

OK

They bad - we good, I understand now.

Glad you understand now, took a while to convince you I see.
