In this episode, I share my experiences as an ESL instructor in Toronto, Canada. I discuss the unique challenges and rewards of working in various language schools in the city, highlighting the education requirements, pay, and employment conditions for ESL instructors. I emphasize the importance of having a bachelor's degree and international certifications like CELTA or TESL Ontario to secure a job in the competitive market. Furthermore, I compare different language schools based on my personal experiences, noting the varying levels of support, benefits, and resources offered to instructors. I touch on the challenges of preparing lesson plans without textbooks, the absence of curriculum in some schools, and the limited social benefits provided by private institutions. This episode is particularly useful for prospective ESL teachers navigating the field in Toronto, or anyone interested in the ESL teaching landscape in Canada.
