Mon, 08 Mar 2010 12:25:55 +0000 http://www.eltworld.net/blog/?p=198#comment-540 I have to partly disagree with the advice of 'bragging' about yourself. There's a line between knowing how to properly phrase your document/how to sell yourself and being a car salesman. Also, depending on what country you are applying for work, this aggressive tactic is considered offensive as locals wouldn't use such boastful language.

It's no surprise that somebody needs to hold their hand when writing their resumes. Furthermore, having had to hire a few myself, I suggest that you just hire whoever is geographically closest to your location because in the end, you almost never know what you're going to get. TEFL teachers are certainly a strange brew. Judging from the countless TEFL resumes I’ve seen, I’m confidant in saying that the vast majority of so-called TEFL teachers are dimwitted.
