About this episode

Today's guest is Aubrey Carter, experienced ESL teacher, holder of an MA TESOL and a 3 Keys IELTS Certification.

Aubrey's been a professional ESL teacher for 20 years and has taught in classrooms in New York and Montréal before taking up online teaching as part of the team at All Ears English.

In our podcast conversation, you'll hear more about

  • how Aubrey became an English teacher through the New York City Teaching Fellows programme
  • why online teaching the English language is so different from other types of teaching
  • whether you need to make sure you have qualifications for online teaching or not
  • why starting a business isn't for everyone
  • how Aubrey keeps her 1:1 lessons interesting and fresh every time
  • how to create an online course that stands out above all others.

I was inspired by Aubrey in so many ways and I'm excited for you to meet her today.
