Didn't want to start a new thread, so bumped this one.
I have been teaching ESL for around 10 years. I have decided to enrol in Uni this year for a PGDE. They assessed my undergraduate degree and found me eligible to teach Spanish, English and ESL. However, I can only choose two subject areas. To do three would take a further 3-6 months. I already have 1 year's post-grad training in ESL, but can only teach adults.
I have looked at job vacancies on TES and so on and English seems to have far more vacancies advertised. I was not a literature, but a linguistics major. I have done some literature subjects, but am by no means on par with someone who has done a literature degree.
I would like to know your opinions on which subject I should choose. If I can only choose two, which combination of Spanish/ESL/English would make me more employable?
