I have written it with those who are contemplating pursuing English teaching (ESL, EFL or ESOL) as a career option particularly in mind, but it would also be of interest to individuals who might be thinking about engaging in English teaching on a short term or voluntary basis. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMy purpose in writing this book is to help you decide whether or not teaching English as a second\/foreign language is something you might want to pursue.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBased upon my own experience of teaching English as a second language, and my knowledge of the English language teaching field more broadly, I discuss: \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- what it is like in practical terms to be an ESL\/EFL\/ESOL teacher \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- what the job involves and what to expect \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- beyond the practicalities, to give some insight into how EFL teachers think about their task \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- the skills, qualities and knowledge needed to be an ESL\/EFL\/ESOL teacher \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- the kind of opportunities available \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI also give some ideas about where to begin with getting into English teaching, and I provide recommendations on how to find out more about the field. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlthough the focus of this book is the teaching of the English language, much of what is written will be equally relevant to teaching any language.
