Essay:School v. freelance

From Teflpedia


There are two main ways of working as an English teacher: working in a school and working freelance. The difference between them is really the difference between having security and a relatively low salary; and having little security and a relatively high high salary. (Although, in some cases the "security" of working for a school may be a little illusory as our article cowboy outfit mentions.)

Some teachers recommend teaching a mixture of school and freelance classes so as to obtain the "best of both worlds"; others will always opt for security and yet others for freelance freedom. It is accepted that, for various reasons, many teachers may have no choice in the matter; but for those who are in a position to make an informed choice this article attempts to compare the two possibilities.
