I said it was short-sighted of you to think Somebody only knew people from EF after multiple years living in China... Not sure how you got this confused with where I can teach!

But just to clarify your 'points'

Yes, I am qualified to teach Eng.Lit in UK high schools. I never actually stated in what country I was qualified to teach in, just that I was qualified to teach in high school if I so chose. You are the one who then makes this about every country in the world, but then we already know irrational generalisations are your specialist subject! In actual fact, I am qualified to teach ESL in European high schools thanks to my DELTA, however, as stated many times, most state schools in Europe only hire locals who have a B2 cert in English.

A native English speaker is not required to have a C2 equivalent of the host countries language in order to teach ESL, especially somebody who is a qualified Cambridge for schools examiner! Nor do they require the use of old English; however if they were, I've read Chaucer and many others extensively, so that wouldn't be an issue anyway! You are just making this up as you go along now! I am more than qualified to work in high schools teaching ESL up to C2 in most European countries.

Have you not gotten tired yet of being shown up time and again? Accept the fact that I am a qualified teacher, with a much better understanding and use of English than you, who specialises in a different area of education to you and so therefore knows more about that area of education than you do and let's just move on, eh?

Or, you can continue in your quest to 'discredit' me and continue to make yourself look irrational, out-dated and foolish as I swat your strawman arguments down like flies. Your choice.
