  • The 3 most important aspects are: the teaching background, methodology and knowledge about the use of different tools to plan and develop meaningful classes

  • In my opinion: 1- Choose a teacher with a native accent from the country which you will be using your English in; and that is the easiest to learn. 2- Make sure the teacher has a professional background that offers synergies with what your learning objective are. 3- That the teacher is very punctual and committed to your scheduled classes. These issues are important from my point of view and I hope that they are helpful to all of you who are in the process of choosing a new teacher. Best regards.

  • After teaching children & adults of all ages, online and offline for 10+ years, I have found that most students choose a teacher according to his/her: 1》Style of teaching: For language learners it is extremely important to learn in an environment where they can feel comfortable and at home. And the teacher they choose make up the majority of this environment. If they don't feel at ease, confident or happy taking classes with a certain ESL Teacher, they will give up or try out someone else. 2》Specific Teaching Experiences: Yes, qualifications are taken into account as well, but I found that learners usually settled for a teacher with extensive experience related to their interests, career or future life goals. 3》Feeling & Seeing Real Improvement: A student that is able to see and feel that he or she is truly making progress with improving English language skills, will certainly stick with the teacher who's causing these improvements.
