I've taught English in Korea to children and teenagers for two years.
I've learned so much during those years, and liked what I was doing somehow.
But I often asked myself - mostly when I felt bad for a student failing, or student falling out, or students doing badly in exams, or sometimes for myself for not performing as I sould have, or seeing blank faces when I fail in getting a point across - what makes a good English teacher?
I've noticed many members here were, are, or will be teaching English in Japan or even somewhere else.
What is your idea of a good Enlgish teacher?
Any tricks you would like to share with others?
Any funny memory that still tickles you?
I've just hit upon this topic, so I have to think and reflect myself, but I will definitely come back to share some of my 'wonderful' teaching years.
This link is what reminded me of that.
