Are you looking for materials to spice up your teaching? Ever dream of working abroad? Feel you need to network with other English Language teachers but don’t know how? Fret not. ESL Herald offers all the answers under one roof. I was contacted by Shane Phair, one of ESL Herald’s personnels recently and I’m glad that he had informed me about this brilliant website.
Basically, ESL Herald aims to:
- help ESL teachers locate the most exciting global ESL job opportunities…
- provide schools and recruiters with the resources needed to find the brightest teachers worldwide…
- host a forum where ESL teachers can share their experiences…
- ensure all teachers have the tools needed to master their skills in the classroom
- assist ESL teachers with destination guidance so they can maximize their experience outside the classroom

The first thing that attracted me was its neat layout and fuss-free navigation. Finding materials is a breeze as the site is segmented according to the areas of interest. Personally, I like the Teacher Toolkit section as it provides a wide array of topics such as Essay Topics, Grammar, Games, Lesson Plans etc. You can narrow down your search based on the age group of the students, level, article rating and date posted. For new teachers who need some ideas for first day of teaching, do check out ‘First Day of Class’. No more classroom jitters as we can arm ourselves with brilliant tips and tricks to kick-start the class. Do check it out!
