Besides difficulties in locating and identifying high quality TEFL teachers, the hiring process can prove challenging as well.
TEFL Teachers may well possess the relevant qualifications required yet lack the TEFL
classroom experience.
When a school is faced with these challenges, it is necessary for School managers to have
the skills to spot applicants’ potential.
A School Manager should look for applicants who possess strong work ethics and
communication skills.
High turnover of teachers costs schools money in terms of recruiting and training and it also diminishes a school’s ability to carry out long term planning, curriculum
revision and reform.
Schools that provide high levels of support for new and existing teachers, through mentoring or TEFL teacher-induction programmes, may
in fact experience higher rates of teacher retention.
Through such programmes, teachers may develop effective teaching strategies and
stronger classroom management skills, often resulting in increased job satisfaction.
