Final reflection

I started my career as an English teacher in Seoul as soon as I graduated, even I never expected to be an EFL teacher.  I am thinking about what I am doing here so far?

I became a new Canadian (people called me) by family immigration. I worked for communication design industry several year in Toronto however I desired something different life.
I decided to come back to Seoul.

I used to work with 80 L1 teachers at the large private school, it was very interesting, co-operative teachers had all different background and cultures as well.  I opened my eyes and ears to see the world.

STG gave me new concept of EFL teaching,
I gave up my EFL career after 2years of  teaching adult class in Gangnam, because I had no idea what to do with them?
I was exhausted that time, I needed little time to off.

All theories, concept, methodology, design lesson plan, and second language acquisition were really interesting during this course. I think STG more focus on linguistic approach of learning.

I am a L2 English teacher, second language acquisition is one of my interest. Bill Johnston mentioned about EFL teachers' professionalism. I am strongly agree with him. I recommend all EFL teachers to take TESOL, it will give them more ideas how to teach language!! 

STG was really practical, I started to reflect myself as an EFL teacher.
How was my micro teaching1, 2, and 3?

I watched again and again seriously, even I found L2 errors by myself.
Self-reflection was a real mirror of  my current ability of teaching. I was very surprised to see myself in videos. They are important data of my progress.

I would like to keep study MA Tesol program to develop myself as a language teacher. TESOL course guide me what's right, effective, and right way to teach L2 learners.

I will keep reflecting myself as much as I can!!!
