Is It Time To Get Out Of TEFL?

There is a very good thread on the ELT World Forums about branching out of TEFL and doing some small business on the side. For anyone involved in the TEFL professional long term, this is a good idea. TEFL work can be a very tough profession and jobs can come and go very quickly. That’s why it is important to come up with a business on the side where you can always have an income coming in.
