English Teaching in Madrid - TEFL video blog 2 part 1

Excellent video,except for the waterfalls. I've taught English in Colombia for many years , I've had to put up with arrogant business owners who only care about money but don't supply materials. People always complain, that is human nature. Overhere teaching English is only 9 months of the year, they like their vacation time. I put ads in the paper January and August. to get students ,in the end the student needs to study if not they won't learn.We are there to motivate and prepare a good lesson

Hi Jeff,

Ok. If I'm unable to turn the sound down, I'll eliminate the waterfalls from my next video. I think some people think we're stuck in the stone age and should be able to do better than we do, but none of them seem to want to take responsibility for their own learning either. Also, I wish I could explain things better too. There's always room for improvement. Cheers, Steven

Could you sit down turn music down way down for the water fall part, I know you want it perfect, no affense. I wish I would have learned more in the 6 grade or before. My friends say they wish teachers would explain lessons better, their children don't know how to do the lessons, too much homework also.
