English Teachers

Direct English is a learner focused system, dedicated to helping its clients succeed in their study of English and our Teachers play a central role in motivating clients and keeping their learning on track.

Teachers lie at the heart of the Direct English system, and our qualified teachers are supported by the Direct English Teachers Manual which provides pre-prepared lesson plans and extension activities for every level of the program.
Teachers run tutorial sessions on-site for customers at all Direct English levels. Depending on the market these can either be conducted as one-to-one sessions, or as groups.
Direct English Tutors also teach at our corporate customers offices through in-company ‘Language Study’ classes, often to large groups of learners.

To support foundation and beginners, some Direct English teachers are expert in both English and the native language of the learner, helping them to identify areas where students are making progress, as well as assisting with problem areas.
Significantly, Direct English teachers create the right environment in tutorials to allow students to practice the language they are learning, so that they can become confident and effective speakers of English.

Our classes are part of the Direct English learning system and have been carefully planned to fit into customers’ overall learning program.
Conversation classes are not just ‘teaching’ classes, they are ‘practice’ classes – a chance for students to practice their developing natural conversation skills in English using a wide variety of often topical news and events.
Direct English mission is that students make progress in Language Learning, acquire Confidence in speaking English and enjoy while doing it!

Our Conversation Class Teachers are  Native English speakers, who are outgoing and sociable. Many bring life and work experience that can provide insights into topics students want to discuss in the sessions. To ensure quality of the conversation class experience is maintained, our Conversation Class Leaders have access to a comprehensive Conversation Class Manual and can review what topics each student has covered through the Learning Management System.

While a specific English teaching qualification is not required, in many countries Direct English conversation class leaders hold qualifications such as the CertTESOL or CELTA.
