Skills to Develop

Communication – Although I consider myself to have good communication skills, I am going into an environment where English is not the native language. Therefore, I will need to ensure that I am always trying my best to communicate with the teachers I am working with in French. I will be able to do this by continuously studying the language and submerging myself in the language.
Teaching strategies – Since I have never had experience of teaching English as a foreign language and have only had a broad primary school experience I may have to alter and enhance my teaching strategies in order to be successful in teaching English. Through reading I will be able to gain knowledge regarding the approach to take when teaching English as a foreign language.
