Are you tired of your dead-end job? Are you feeling a bit boxed in by your tedious existence? Are you pretty sure there should be more to life than this?
**Well, so is English Teacher X.**
ENGLISH TEACHER X GUIDE TO TEACHING ENGLISH ABROAD is a brutally frank, often scathing, frequently profane, occasionally profound, but always insightful look at English teaching abroad in the 21st century, written by a TEFL veteran with nearly 20 years of experience.
A perfect guide for beginners and those thinking of entering the profession, it deals with a **general consideration of the pros and cons of TEFL,** and how to decide whether it's right for you; gives some general advice about **how to find a job and choose a decent employer** ; and offers some advice for dealing with **the most common problems experienced by newbies** in the business of Teaching English as a Foreign Language.
Written with heaping doses of ETX's usual mordant humor, cutting insight, and blistering sarcasm, it also includes **interviews** with experienced and novice teachers of English as a foreign language, classic ETX **cartoons** and essays, useful **activities and resources** , and updated information about **typical salaries and conditions.**
