Let's talk about offline children's English education institutions. Most of the children's teachers in offline institutions are China. There will be a small number of foreign teachers in larger institutions, but the teaching price of foreign teachers is higher. Because the teacher turnover rate of offline institutions is relatively high, offline institutions recruit a group of fresh graduates in spring or autumn every year, and then conduct training. After the training, freshmen are all in junior classes, that is, children's classes, and then slowly move up to some older classes. Therefore, children's English teachers in offline institutions generally have little teaching experience and insufficient professional knowledge reserves. But because the teachers are all children, the content is relatively simple and the foundation can cope.
Online children's English education institutions hire foreign teachers because of the convenience of online teaching and to compete with offline institutions that have been deeply involved in the English market for many years. Teaching English by foreign teachers can create a mother tongue-like English environment for students and cultivate their sense of English language.
Online institutions that attach importance to the quality of education will strictly handle the recruitment of foreign teachers to ensure the recruitment of excellent English foreign teachers. For example, in the training institution, the admission rate of foreign teachers in this online English teaching institution for children is less than 5%, and every foreign teacher has undergone strict screening. Therefore, the foreign teachers in the training institutions are all English majors, and they all hold English teaching qualifications similar to TEFL and TESOL. The children have rich experience in English teaching. The most important thing is that the foreign teachers in training institutions are all from English-speaking countries, and their pronunciation is very pure and standard, especially their English expression is very authentic, which is very important for children who have just learned English, and can help them develop good English pronunciation habits and speak fluent and standard English.
