How Technical English Teacher Education changed me

Although Technical English Teacher Education might not be popular, its career opportunity abounds. English is widely required for a job, but compared to general English, Technical English Teacher Education proves to have an edge over.

I’ve been working as a Translator-cum-Interpreter in Construction for 10 years. I love my profession for several reasons.
