I have taught students from 5 years old to 12 years old, which has helped me develop my own teaching skills, and have had so much support whilst doing so. You can commit as much as you want to this job, as there are guidebooks and pre prepared lessons, although once you get more comfortable there are opportunities to create your own content to suit your students.  read less

I taught tens of Chinese students over Zoom - something that wouldn't seem possible a few years ago - in English language and literature. This challenged me to adapt every lesson to an individual student through the barrier of internet as well as language. I would highly recommend this to anyone interested - especially for the incredibly valuable lessons taught to you by each pupil. read less

The students have been absolutely amazing and I really enjoyed helping them improve their English. I like to design my own lesson materials, but Abridge Academy also has a huge variety of materials available which the tutors are free to use for their lessons. The programme itself is very well organised and there is both Katie and the local staff who are willing to help you out and support you. read less

It is really rewarding to see students improve their English and show real enthusiasm in lessons. The Chinese language and culture activities are really interesting and provide a valuable insight into life in China.

You can teach children of all ages and at all speaking levels, so you really get the chance to learn different ways to engage with each one. Outside of the classes, the coordinators are very easy to contact if you run into any issues, need advice, or simply just to chat. Since joining in, I have felt very welcomed and have learned a lot. Whether you are thinking of pursuing a teaching career or hoping to learn something new, I would highly recommend this program to you. read less
