Absolutely! You will find that a career teaching ESL is rewarding for both you and those you teach. As an ESL teacher, you have an opportunity – and direct responsibility – to provide your students with the basic linguistic tools they need for a better future. The English skills they develop could very well help move them on to college, a career and the American dream. As far as personal rewards for yourself, teaching ESL will also give you the ability to travel, experience new lands, and explore beautiful cultures.
