esl in asia - 2004-11-29
In response to Response to Caroline (Michaelangello)

Here, here. :)

Ive complained to deaf ears about this too. I too found it quite a shame that Canada is chock full of Brits but we cant go there to work.

The EU, as I mentioned is a protectionist society to help from squeezing labour. Yes, the Brits do have the ESL market locked in. But do you really know why?

It's because the British government has funded the British Council to promote the English language in Europe and abroad whereas the Americans just sat on their hands.

Americans are too cheap basically to fund anything but bombs. So the British government set aside a lot of money to promote English training and their programs. Sorry, but you have the Canadians/Americans to blame for that.

You just have to except it and play by the rules. Get your CELTA/Trinity in the EU and be done with it. Then, look for work in Germany, as they still hire N. Americans. Well, maybe not Americans these days but thats not because of the labour issue, if you get my drift.

Complaining will not change the rigid Europeans with their proverbial rod up their bum. I wish you the best of luck in what ever is your decision. :)
