About Halloween

Today is Halloween. I really like this day. It is very interesting to see many children on the street. We can watch scary movies at night. People don't celebrate this day in my country. But I think this is very fun for people of all ages. We can go parties or we can have our own party at home and make really amazing food.
I will make origami figures and put them on my wall.

Happy Halloween!!!!

My favourite series

I was thinking last night about my favourite series: Supernatural. I watched an episode from the beginning 2 days ago. I remembered when I watched this first episode. I was very curious.
I wanted to see it, but the series was on very late. I couldn't sleep and I was waiting for when it would begin. It was funny, and I enjoyed it. I'm now anticipating new episodes each week. I think the series has changed, but it is a tradition for me to watch it, so I must continue.
Do you like this series? Or do you have another favourite?

I agree that this is not fair, and that ideally English teachers should be judged on their merit. Indeed, it may be the case that a qualified non-native English speaker may be a better teacher than a non-qualified native speaker. However, in general settings (leaving out qualifications), most people consider that native speakers will have the strongest grasp of a language, its nuance, its colloquialisms, etc. In many cases this is true, but of course there will always be exceptions to this rule.

What this has done is create a "premium" with being able to advertise that you have actual native speakers teaching, despite this not necessarily meaning that they are better teachers. Because the market now places a premium on the native tag, and because there are so many native English speakers, it will unfortunately be more difficult for non-native English speakers to find work as English teachers. However, opportunities will be greater in countries and regions where there are less native speakers available wanting to teach.
