It's as easy as ABC

With the current economic climate at freezing point, one industry is still warming up. At times of crisis, employees rush for re-training, and particularly in the European market where English is an absolute for professionals.

In Spain, national schools are funding the introduction of native speakers for part-time conversation classes, while further afield in China, Korea and Japan demand for trained English teachers, (EFL/ESL) continues to rise.

While some schools will employ English teachers simply because they are native speakers, it is recommended to take a one-month accredited course. Courses can be taken online or at any number of schools throughout Europe. In the Republic of Ireland the ACELS accredited course is the only one recognised by the department of Education.
