TEFL for good: refugees, asylum seekers and being a positive light

About this episode

While TEFL can open the doors to the rest of the world for talented teachers, there are also incredible opportunities to make a difference for newcomers to your local community. With ongoing crises worldwide, there’s a significant demand for English teachers to help asylum seekers and refugees fleeing persecution, war, famine, poverty and other traumas. 

So, how do TEFL teachers make a difference? What’s it like teaching such vulnerable groups? What skills do teachers need? Grace Davis rejoins the podcast to tell us about her experiences working with refugees in Minnesota.
