The TESOL certification is an opening to a teaching career - a profession that not only brings job satisfaction, but also a scope to reinvent oneself as a guide and mentor. For an aspiring teacher it is an inspiring profession while those who are changing their career course mid-life, it is a far cry from the cut-throat corporate competition that saps into the core of one’s life. The quality of life changes for the better, while there is still a satisfactory pay packet to lead a quantitatively good life.
