It is a shame that so many people today are so arrogant and full of themselves. I met my future possible employers and I was shocked by the arrogance that not only teachers show, but also employers. The result is that you have teachers leaving left and right. Then you have people on both sides of the equation spreading falsehoods about one another. The result? A loss of peace. My employer told me that "I can not sleep well". My current employer has told me the same thing time and time again. English teachers I meet are not feeling stable or happy. Many of them are quick to complain to each other about others. What a loss of peace!
Teaching a language as in teaching anything requires humility. When you have a failing result, for example, students who study for years can not make basic sentences, yet they can ace grammar tests, there must be a problem. You have to sit down and make some changes.
The main issue with ESL today is that it is based on making a good profit financially. As such there will always be issues. Every industry on Earth suffers from this issue. This short-term viewpoint is to make as much money as you can. Money today isn't even based on precious metals anymore. It is based on people's faith in the current system of things, which is very close to ending. What a waste of time. The Bible tells of a time when people will be resurrected and they will require education. Which means the ability to teach will be very important. I think of the teachers in the bible. They were not arrogant. They were all humble, meek, and slow to anger. We need to follow Jesus's example.
