Default Re: What level of English should a non-naive teacher have?

Hi Emile.
That's a good question there, very close to the one I have been asking most of my students, employers and colleagues for 8years in ESL teaching. So I am not suggesting and answer to your question but I am adding a second dimension to the question:
Does the fact that X is a native English speaker make X an ESL teacher automatically? And does the fact that Y is from a non-native English speaking country disqualify Y as an ESL teacher?
