Teaching English as a Foreign Language in Germany- I am English and I was thinking of taking a gap year and teaching English in Germany- Is it possible- how much would I earn etc?

Bear in mind that you would be competing for jobs against German and British teachers who might have done joint degrees in English and German and postgraduate teaching qualifications. It would probably be easier to find gap year teaching work in countries like China or Ghana, etc. Many of the gap year students who teach abroad are volunteers, so you need to think about whether you want to earn money or build on skills for your CV. Do you have links with any schools in Germany - have you been on a German exchange, for example? If so, you could try contacting the school and explaining that you would like some teaching experience in Germany and see if they would consider taking you on as a teaching assistant. Whatever you decide to do - viel gluck!

What are some examples of ESL methods?

For many years ESL teachers have used the PPP teaching methodology which stands for Presentation, Practice and Production as the preferred model for teaching English as a second or foreign language. Although this is a student centered teaching methodology it does not work well when teaching more complex language structures beyond the sentence level and for teaching communication skills. The ESA teaching methodology is currently the most popular teaching methodology because it is student centered and easy to implement by new ESL teachers and it is very powerful for teaching communication skills and complex language structures at all levels. ESA was developed by Jeremy Harmer and stands for Engage, Study, Activate The methodology concentrates on getting the students to communicate using everyday English in real world situations through a variety of communicative activities.
