Working Through the eTEFL Online Self-Study Mentorship Course – Part 2 – eTEFL Online

The eTEFL Online Self-Study Mentorship Course

 

Hello and welcome back to part 2 of my blog series!

My name is Thapelo Ntlhabo and I am from South Africa.

I am in the process of building my TEFL career and I have been offered a temporary TEFL-related gig by www.eteflonline.com which I would like to share with you.

My assignment is to test drive their self-study Mentorship Program and then write (or report back) about it here in this space.

WEEK 2 – Session 2 – Resume and Intro Video

 

Step 1. Create a teaching email address = ✅

Step 2. Take two high-quality photos = ✅

Step 3. Create a Skype & Zoom accounts using your new email address (in 1.) = ✅

Step 4. Create the following accounts and link them to your bank account:
a) PayPal = ✅
b) Wise = ✅

Step 5. Write your resume (CV) – use the template provided as reference = Loading…….😁

Step 6. Write one video script targeting potential adult students on a public freelance platform and proceed to record the video = Loading……😁

 

And that is Session 2 in a nutshell!

 

I hope to wrap up steps 5 and 6 this week. It is just that I had a busy-ish weekend and could not complete them. For Session 2 the main point was the primacy of the Introduction Video. As our instructor (via video) put it: “. ..the Introduction Video is the gateway into students discovering who you are as a teacher and what you have to offer. ” Therefore it must be damn good. It must stand out. After going through Session 2, I must admit, I now feel I am ready to receive those US dollars!

 

Next week I will report back on Session 3, which is about preparing for that possible job interview.
