Find out all the details you need to know about having awesome online ESL/EFL classes with Shannon Felt from TEFL Horizons. Teaching English online isn't easy but Shannon shares some helpful tips to make it engaging, student-centred and as painless as possible. Here's more about Shannon:
As a lover of literature and grammar, Shannon soon found that teaching English was just as much fun as studying it. That realization sparked a career that has taken her from Addis Ababa to Budapest. Even after more than ten years of English teaching and training, she still never gets tired of a good pun. While she relishes all aspects of her work in the classroom, she particularly enjoys helping teachers and students with exam preparation and has a knack for improving scores on the writing sections. Find out more about Shannon and be sure to check out her podcast:
