Extractions: Regardless of the schedule, the school will provide you a basic curriculum you can follow as well as supplementary materials to use. The most important thing however is that no matter what age level you teach, you present the English language in an enjoyable, interesting way to your students, and that you conduct yourself with a sense of pride and professionalism and genuine interest in your students' needs. All contracts have a clause stating that if you are teaching private pupils without the school's permission, you will be dismissed! In all certainty you will be approached almost daily to help teach someone privately. There are many universities in Korea, some are a lot more reputable than others. Teaching positions are always available in universities, however in real terms you will just be an ESL tutor rather than part of the professional department. You may get an office to use, but sometimes the accommodation, pay and facilities are only the same as all other ESL schools. Universities usually have longer vacation periods in their contracts. To work in a university you must be either very well qualified with a Masters Degree, an ESL diploma or have previous teaching experience in Korea.

Extractions: On Language Minority Students in the Public Schools Home Language Survey (HLS) Data The l998-'99 academic year HLS results indicated that 12,500 language minority students were enrolled in Arkansas public schools, a 300% increase since 1994 (preliminary data for the current 1999-2000 school term indicate an increase in language minority enrollment of 10% over last year); of this number, over 8,000 were determined to be limited in their English proficiency, as indicated through the administration of the Language Assessment Scales (LAS) at the local school district (LEA) level. Of the state's 310 school districts, over 150 reported the enrollment of language minority students, identifying 82 languages other than English being used in homes with school age children. Hispanic students constitute 85% of the language minority school enrollment, with Laotian students at 4% and Vietnamese students at 3%, respectively, as the next two largest language groups. Funding The Arkansas Legislature meets every two years. In 1994-'95 $2 million in state monies were allocated to support LEP students through LEA funding, the amount per student being pro-rated based on the total LEP state-wide headcount as indicated by the HLS. In 1996-1997, $4 million were allocated, and in 1998-'99 $8 million were allocated. Funding is sent directly to LEAs, which are required to use the monies to support the provision of instructional services for LEP students. Title I, Migrant, and Emergency Immigrant Federal funding is also received by LEAs to support the academic achievement of LEP students.

UCSB Catalog: Graduate Education At UCSB member of the prestigious Association of American universities as well as Fellowsof the National academies of Sciences English as a Second Language (esl) classes http://www.catalog.ucsb.edu/g.htm
Extractions: Associate Dean: John W. Mohr Index: U CSB offers innovative and interdisciplinary graduate programs that are among the finest in the world. In a process extending from problem definition through research to dissemination of findings in scholarly journals and professional conferences, UCSB graduate students are trained to assume leadership positions in academia, private industry and public service. Consistently ranked among the top public research universities in the nation, UCSB is a member of the prestigious Association of American Universities . The faculty includes three recent Nobel Laureates, as well as Fellows of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Arts and Sciences, and National Endowment for the Humanities . Most departments offer research experience and undergraduate teaching as part of their graduate degree programs, yet are small enough for faculty members to know and mentor students individually. Recognizing that the century ahead will call for people trained beyond traditional academic boundaries, UCSB is developing graduate opportunities that emphasize new approaches in research and training to address the needs of cross-disciplinary collaboration. This balance enhances theoretical learning, technical training and independent inquiry. UCSB seeks to achieve a graduate student community reflective of the population at large, and encourages applications from students who have overcome disadvantages in pursuing their academic objectives and bring perspectives that advance our goals of excellence and diversity.

Extractions: The vast majority of students of English are not found in native-speaking countries such as England and the United States but spread out in countries all over the globe. Nevertheless, the majority of ESL/EFL methods and approaches are developed in native-speaker settings, especially in the U.S., and much literature in the field is thus oriented toward teaching students in the ESL environment. However, as anyone who has taught both ESL and EFL knows, there are cultural and logistical circumstances which make a strict application of current ESL trends inappropriate, if not impossible, abroad. Developing a teaching approach that is both in step with current American methodology, yet fits the culture and logistical circumstances overseas, is the challenge facing most serious English schools around the world, and one which the Instituto de Estudios Norteamericanos (IEN) in Barcelona, Spain, has successfully met. In this article, I will summarize our approach as we communicate it both to teachers and students in the hope that this approach will be a useful guideline for other English schools around the world, and perhaps even for ESL programs. Like many private and government-affiliated institutions around the world, the IEN teaches general English primarily to adults in classes which meet three hours per week. The entire program, if completed at a normal pace, takes five years, and students study English in addition to their primary activity (generally work or university).
Reflective Teaching In EFL: Integrating Theory And Practice Business English, EAP/ESP and esl by our School of Languages, private language academies,the Chamber at the undergraduate level at most Spanish universities. http://www-writing.berkeley.edu/TESL-EJ/ej15/cf1.html
Extractions: postegui@fil.uji.es There is a tendencyat least within Spanish Universitiesto separate linguistic theory from methodology in language teaching. Our understanding is that linguistic theoretical input should not systematically be taught independently of pedagogical considerations. Instead, it may be very beneficial to integrate linguistic theory within the practical methodological framework in which language teachers become involved in their professional careers. This is specially the case in applied linguistics where both discourse and genre analysis (Swales, 1990; Fairclough, 1992; Bhatia, 1993) represent an important tool for linguists in their efforts to comprehend the variation of language across different types of texts. Our aim is to overcome some of the problems based on the existing gap between theoretical input and pedagogical teacher training. We agree with Lewis when he states: Many non-natives have spent many years studying the language but their theoretical studiesphilology, phonetics, linguistics and the likeare frequently not related to pedagogy and the classroom. Extensive theoretical knowledge which precedes classroom experience often remains too abstract for teachers to see its relevanceÉ. (1993, p. 189)

Extractions: Texas Tech University This article describes plagiarism as it is commonly understood in the United States and is defined for young researchers by the U.S. National Academy of Sciences. It also applies these ideas to three cases of plagiarism by Chinese scientists reported in the journal Science. The author uses this framework to argue that ESL/EFL professionals need to question the relevance of some traditional notions about plagiarism and examine their effect on the ability of their students to publish and take part in the mainstream of discourse in the sciences. The author includes pertinent information from literature in language politics, studies in second language acquisition and second language writing, culture studies, and contemporary literature concerning the effects of technology on traditional Western concepts of intellectual property. The journal Science On Being a Scientist: Responsible Conduct in Research was embedded as an illustration in the columns of print running across the first page of the article.

In Search Of A Good English Teacher Private academies and universities continue to Potentially, most native literatescan teach some level of English as a Second or Foreign Language (esl/EFL http://www.scottmurray.com/English_teacher.htm
Extractions: by Bernie Rosenbloom Thailand abounds with English teaching positions. Adverts swamp the daily newspapers, and language schools outnumber McDonalds. Private academies and universities continue to increase their focus on English with positions opening all the time. And teaching English seems like a job that almost any English speaker can get. Backpackers with time and no money. Diploma-holders with career aspirations. Thais with English degrees. But like any profession, an English teacher needs qualifications, the least of which is being human. As one of the lowest paying, easiest-to-get expat jobs in the Kingdom, teaching attracts a hodgepodge of native speakers. How do you spot a good one? Educational background could indicate a good candidate. Certainly someone with an MA in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (MA-TESOL) sits high on a university's short list. At the other end stands the native speaker with a certificate in welding. Hardly ajarn material, but a Thai engineer might enjoy a conversation course taught by a fellow tradesman. A variety of degrees, diplomas and certificates float around the English-teaching world. Someone with an MA in English or linguistics can discuss deconstruction philosophy, language acquisition theories, and Faulkner's use of the past tense. Thai's sometimes call these people "Experts." Education grads know things like monitoring and managing. A person with a bachelor's degree in anything should easily be able to follow a "Teacher's Book."
