Teaching English 12 months a year is nearly impossible if you want to have good result. First of all schools are usually open either nine or ten months. Secondly teachers are very much alike with jugs fullof knowledge. When they teach the jug becomes empty. So they also need some time to have a rest and fill in the jug of knowledge again. I apologise for making not a suitable comparison.
