Who are our language teachers?
Our teachers broadly fall into three categories:
1. Working teachers who already have a full-time job with
a state or private school. These teachers only work for us
during their vacation time in the summer, at Easter or even
at Christmas.
2. Retired teachers usually do not want to work full time,
but are very pleased to host mature students 4 or 5 times a
year. This enables them to meet interesting people from other
countries and also to supplement their income without leaving
their homes.
3. Lady teachers with children of their own often give up
their full time teaching jobs to look after their own children.
These ladies are delighted to have the opportunity to supplement
their income by entertaining an extra child whom they can teach
without leaving their own house.
All language teachers have the highest possible qualifications
which ensure that they are professional, and above all trained
to teach. Every single teacher holds a teaching certificate recognised
by their own authorities or a University degree or equivalent
accepted by the private sector.
Our resident regional organisers are equally important.
These regional organisers monitor the progress of each student
and are on call to solve the slightest personal problem that
any students might have. If for any reason the student wishes
to change the teaching family no reasons need be given. It is
sufficient to say 'I do not feel comfortable' or ' I do not feel
happy'. In this way the family will be swiftly changed with no
embarrassment on either side, as all teachers know that sometimes
there can be a clash of personalities through no fault of either
student or teacher. We have become very expert in our selection
of the right family for each student so that it is very rare
that any changes need to be made.
