Personal Teaching Experience

In my experience as an English teacher, many students are faced with the need to study English to fulfill their dreams. It is very common for parents around the world to recognize the need for this skill as part of a well-rounded education.

I have personally taught students as young as 4 years of age, understanding their parents’ desire for their children to achieve success in the future. I have also worked with adolescents, young adults and business professionals who are all aware of the impact that learning the English language can have on their careers.

Globalization and Students’ Plans

Regardless of what a student’s career and plans for the future may be, globalization has made communications and transactions between people from many different regions around the world more commonplace, therefore the English language has emerged as the global business language, making it a crucial skill for any student or professional today. Many companies around the world are headquartered in English speaking nations and even those which are not are now dealing with an international clientele who often speak English.

English is not just an important language when dealing with people from these English speaking nations, but also many individuals from non-English speaking nations have opted for English as the international language of choice when it comes time to communicate in their respective fields. Students understand that even when they find themselves interacting with clients or co-workers from non-English speaking nations, English is the go-to language for business interactions.
