Did you read my mind? LOL I was talking about teaching online with two non-native friends today. Thanks a million! I sent them the link and told them to follow you, too :)
@@teacherlena6194 I am also interested in teaching on cambly. I am M. A English B.ed , M.phil English, and now pursuing P.hd in American Literature. I have applied for tutor post on Cambly on 8th December 2020 and expecting a positive response. I have 23 years of teaching experience.
Thank you for your explanation! I'm an English teacher from Albania .I have graduated in Foreign languages .Please can you tell how can I get the Tefl certificate without having the course ?
Hello dear Lena, What if I am not a native; however, I do have deep cultural awareness, additionally, I literally speak like Americans that even Americans can't distinguish my accent. Besides the accent, I have got the CELTA course (grade pass). So may I, then, get accepted in sites that require native speakers?
With all due respect…not really understanding why ELLs who are not native English speakers really want to teach the language that they themselves are still learning, nor do I get why companies would want to hire non-native English speakers to teach English. Back when I taught English in Spain, I had a buddy from Texas who had this dream of someday teaching Spanish in a Spanish university. I told him he should instead teach English. He eventually gave up trying, since there were so many qualified Spaniards available to take those jobs. I often met Spaniards who had studied English with non-native speakers of English, and they always exhibited strange, quirky little pronunciations and tones and mistakenly used expressions. They were always very happy to have a native speaker, especially one who could explain the subtle, or significant, differences between English spoken in the US and that of the UK, Canada, South Africa, Australia or New Zealand.
Because non-native speakers can fully understand, comprehend and communicate a language. The CEF exists for a reason, and it's a very reliable system. Not everyone who speaks a second language will be completely fluent or even reach B2 level, but non-natives certainly can learn a language C2 level.
And yet, even those politically appointed "natives" do not share the same accent or language rules. Even in their own countries, there are differences and some of those accents are horrendous on the ears. The non-native is based in discrimination. "Native" does not automatically make a person qualified but these people believe what they choose.
Really? I was just trying to provide information that is given on these companies websites. If this information is not accurate than I do apologize. I am trying to give credible information provided by the companies. If you could let us know which companies are not hiring non-natives that are listed in this video that would be so helpful! thx
Can you give a detailed information about the TESOL and TEFL courses that you shared? how is the credibility? it is recognized worldwide? and how come it is just 19€ , i haven’t seen any tefl course below 500€ or sth :/
These certificates have been used by many online ESL teachers. I cannot speak for using them for any other purpose but I know they are useful for the online teaching job. I personally got mine through this company and I have not had a problem with it being accepted for the companies that I applied for.
@@teacherlena6194 Thanks a lott!! Can I also ask you something? I am a nonnative speaker but fluent and have american accent. I am studying english language teaching. (BA) i am on my last semester right now. So being enrolled in a ELT BA program, having an online tefl certificate like you shared, being a fluent nonnative speaker are my qualifications. Do you think I can land an online job? Which companies would you prefer? I’ll do my applications but I can’t choose the companies. :(
Good morning Lena from 1 am - 3:30 am I added the demo's class for adults and kids as well, what really shocked me is that I added one video for adults and another video for kids and filled in again my whole information; what really shocked me was that I didn't receive no e-mail back letting me know that my information was sent ok. Can you please tell me where to look if my name is registered as an English tutor for Cambly?
You can enter the website as a student. Go under your profile and select the student tab and then you can see all of the tutors that are available, including yourself.
@@teacherlena6194 See working with Preply I can very easily search for my profile name, description, etc information on my profile. Can I do the same in Cambly even though I haven't received any confirmation from Cambly yet?

Hi YuYu, sorry i do not know anyone who works for First Future. And, yes Cambly may not get back to you if they don't approve your application. That is something I don't like.

Hi! It sounds to me that you could get hired but I would ask the company that you are interested in directly. I cannot answer for them but I only try to give you information that can lead you in the right direction(s). Hope this helps!
iTutorGroup doesn't accept non-natives anymore. They used to but recently kicked out their non-native teachers, and this is me talking from experience. Worked for them for about 2 years
@@user-yd9xy3rb4x If the information is incorrect then it is because the company has advertised it falsely or others have spoken falsely about their experience.

I have never heard that it is illegal to hire non-natives in China. I have heard of many teachers who are non-natives working for several of the companies that I have spoken about in this video.
