<<Suppose we accept that statement. Why does it matter? Non-native speakers outnumber native speakers, after all; if they and their teachers create TEFL-ese, and begin to use it between themselves, that's their affair.>>

Do you really think that ESL students play a part in creating TEFLese?

TEFLese is a dialect. It is a product.

Suppose we accept that statement. Why does it matter? Non-native speakers outnumber native speakers, after all; if they and their teachers create TEFL-ese, and begin to use it between themselves, that's their affair.

(And imagine what our common friend M. would say, if he heard you, Anon. "The sentences don't get any more authentic"? Mere prescriptive sniping. In fact, I suspect that M. would advise disgruntled natives to pursue an entirely different course of action: to attend classes in TEFL-ese themselves, so that they could learn to communicate with the global majority.)

Hi there i have the same problem have you got any pointers yet if so could you please give me some. Heres what i have got so far!

a. China

China encourages English speaking teachers to come to China to teach

English. However, a high level of motivation in students does not equal effective learning.

Instead, a high level of motivation plus correct instruction could result in more effective

learning.

There have long been differences between Western approaches and Eastern approaches.

Research indicates that Chinese TEFL tends to emphasize English language knowledge,

content, teacher-centered classrooms and exam results while Western TEFL or ESL (English

as Second Language) favors critical thinking skills, realistic use of language, studentcentered

classrooms and the process of learning.

Western educators do not prefer rote learning, memorization, and knowledge transmission,

which is central to traditional Chinese pedagogy.

In the process of employing culture teaching in TEFL, there are a number of problems we are likely to

encounter though it has been proved, to some degree, a success. Some researchers argue that the degree of studentsâfamiliarity with the subject matter of learning materials may greatly influence their performance in language study.All these problems mentioned above may result from the great distance between learners as well as teachers andteaching or learning materials. Whatâs more, Chinese English learners sometimes find it hard or unable to clearlyexpress themselves, which has been excluded from pragmatic failure in discussion.

b. South Korea

c. Viet Nam

Teachers have had problems with pronunciation, spoken fluency-interacting with children in Viet Nam, Also adjusting their English to children's level so the children can understand the teacher.

Teachersâ poor knowledge of children's psychology and pedagogy, and the poor quality of classroom teaching is also a factor when teaching in Viet nam.

My interest in Science and English dates back to my school days. Being an inquisitive boy, I always have been eager to learn more and more around me. My interest in wide range of subjects and my inner aspiration helped me a lot to acquire a significant knowledge of the Science, history and culture of the world. With the passage of time my eagerness for knowledge got specified and my desire to go deeper into my subjects intensified.

After completing my graduation with chemistry Biology and English I started teaching in Sir Syed Secondary School âa reputable institute of District Sahiwal (Pakistan). Here I had a chance to instill my curiosity and my knowledge into my students. I gave them the basic concepts of Science and taught them how to use correct English. I also learned from their questions as my teachers had from mine. Along with teaching I also worked as an educational counselor by keeping close relation with students and their parents.

To familiarize my self with latest teaching and management techniques I got admission in bachelor of Education (B.Ed) program of Allama Iqbal Open University Islamabad. In this course I learned to teach English and science at elementary level.

Major subjects during this course were school administration and management education psychology, theories of education and Evaluation. At the end of the course I completed ten days workshop in which I was selected the representative of the class. I also helped the other trainee teacher.

The most important decision in my life was when I took admission in master in English language and literature. I have got a chance to get a wide range of knowledge in the realm of English the core courses during my master in English which have a great effect on my personality were English drama, Novel, poetry, linguistics and phonetics, English grammar and teaching of English as a foreign language (TEFL).During this study work I explored the world of English literature. I at once fell in love with a work of CHAUCER, SHAKESPEARE and BERTRAND RUSSEL which are the most humanistic writers of the world. This course has greatly improved my language skills. Now a days, I am teaching English and science in Govt middle school.

My hobbies are reading literature, watching English movies and listening English programmes of radio(like BBC,VOA ).i am also a good player of basket ball .i love to read about the history and culture of different nations and like to discuss and solve educational problems of teachers and students. But my ultimate aim is to improve and develop myself first then works for human beings at higher level in the field of education. My independence and full responsibility for myself have driven me to a higher level of maturity than many of my peers, a quality that differentiates me form many other applicants.

I have studied all about your program of studies, course content really attract me to join this master level program. This will develop in me different skills and broaden my perspective of life in the light of alternative points of views. Also on the completion of this master level program I will be able to analyze and assess the change process in education and may examine all these from a number of perspective

I am highly aware of the superb reputation of your current program. Course contents have served to deepen my interest in attending; I know that, in addition to your excellent faculty, your facilities like libraries are among the best. I hope u will give me the privilege of continuing my studies at the fine institutions of Europe

Why do you want to enrol in the International Bachelor Economics & Business Economics programme?
Why did you choose Erasmus University Rotterdam?
What are your career aspirations?

Here it goes!

Letter of Motivation

Dear Sirs,

With this letter I would like to show my interest for the International Bachelor Economics & Business Economics programme at the Erasmus University Rotterdam.

On the 5th of August 1987, I, ----- Ayubi was born in CuraÃ§ao, Netherlands Antilles. Iâm of Lebanese, Dutch, Aruban, and CuraÃ§aoan descendancy. Being raised bilingually and in a multicultural environment gave me the privilege to speak, besides my native language Papiamentu, also Dutch, English, Spanish and a little French. In CuraÃ§ao the majority of schools operate according to the Dutch education system. After primary school I went to Havo, followed by a two year in one VWO programme at the Abel Tasman College. At this school they concentrate on planning, performing, and discipline. Not happy with my English score at VWO, I decided to do an English course in Boston, Massachusetts. It was a short, but intensive course in which I got the chance to meet people with different nationalities and cultures. In that short period of time I had to do several projects and also give short English classes to foreigners. Not only did I receive my TEFL certificate, but I also learned from the different cultures and customs represented by students attending the English course, and also how essential planning is in a city as Boston. Back in CuraÃ§ao, I worked for some time in a middle-large import and distribution company of fine liquors as a part-time cashier and did also some administrative work.

Since my childhood Iâve been traveling around the world. My usual vacation destinations were the Netherlands and the United States, but besides some neighbor islands, I also got the opportunity to visit other countries such as, Venezuela, Colombia, Argentina, Brazil and some countries in Europe. I must say I was always very fond of traveling especially when it was for business purposes of my parents. Experiencing and hearing about the successful businesses my grandparents and parents have run, such as restaurants, boutiques, bakery shops and a hotel, my ambitions for business had started to flourish. Already since my secondary school education I was convinced I made the right choice with respect to the profile Economy & Society having in mind a future career in business affairs.

My interest in the IBEB programme at the Erasmus University Rotterdam has much to do with the information I acquired about its excellent interdisciplinary program and some great references about the University from my former secondary school teachers and friends studying at the Erasmus University. Iâm well aware that the key to a successful economy is one open to the influences of globalization. My aim is to work in an international field related to economical and business affairs, somehow contributing to stabilize and boost some economical aspects of CuraÃ§ao such as tourism, harbour activities, banking and offshore business, and Iâm convinced that the IBEB programme would provide me with the necessary theoretical knowledge and practical skills I need for a successful business management in the future. The highly qualified lectures, the modern teaching methods and the academic environment at Erasmus University will motivate and enable me to achieve my goals.

I realize the highly competitive demands of the program, but I have enough ability, ambition and motivation to cope with the requirements for a successful study at the University. Iâm well informed of the seriousness of the heavy loaded IBEB Bachelorâs curriculum for the first two academic years, but Iâm prepared to comply with this study curriculum which I found extremely interesting. Adaptation and integration in the Dutch culture and life style should not be a problem, since Iâm already familiar with this. To add on I enjoy teamwork and group discussions. Other than that I like to dance, swim, play board games, go to the gym, cooking, fine dining and of course shopping. I may say of myself that Iâm a relaxed person, but at the same time serious and passionate about matters I would like to achieve.

As well as my mother whoâs a lawyer, my brother whoâs a law student at the Radboud University Nijmegen, and my father whoâs an anthropologist, I also am determent to realize my professional aims and dreams. Therefore I would be very proud and happy if I were allowed to enrol for the IBEB programme at your prestigious University of worldwide reputation, so that I could prove you and myself of my motivation to fulfill my goals.

I thank you for considering my application and I look forward to your response.

Hi!

I've got a question about the status or ranking of the members. I'm new to this site and am a little confused. It seems that the ranking of a member is based solely on the number of postings made by that user, however, does it apply to his/her English language & grammar knowledge? The reason I ask is because I am taking a TEFL course (as is many others on this site, as i have noticed) and came on in search of an answer to a course question. Someone had already asked the question and i was reading the responses. Different people gave different responses and I was just trying to judge how accurate and correct the responses are. I was assuming that the people who were were were Gurus were more qualified than lets say a junior member. But, now i am wondering if I may be wrong?

Thank you.

This site has been very resourceful.
