    Hi guys,
    I was given an online Tefl course voucher for Christmas. I'm signing up for it now but one of the first questions it asks is this:

    Please choose any 2 of the following modules:

    Specialist Modules - Professional English

    Specialist Modules - Survival Teaching

    Specialist Modules - Young Learner


    Can anyone advise me as to which two would be the more useful modules in the long term.

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    It depends what you want to do. I chose Young Learner because I'm planning to teach kids in South Korea and Survival Teaching because I think in the future I might like to teach in poorer countries. I don't want to teach adults, but there would be a lot of work in that, so if I was recommending it to someone else I'd say go for Young Learner and Professional English.

    Lots of jobs look for young learner experience, so that's probably the best for employment (assuming you enjoy working with kids, of course).
