A TESOL certification allows learners to gain a sufficient understanding of language systems and commonly used teaching approaches to embark on a career as an educator. The qualification will enable learners to become independent teachers with the tools to plan appropriate lessons and courses for their students without support if necessary.
Upon completing this certificate program, learners can progress along a pathway to study for a higher level of qualification in teaching and/or linguistics, should they choose to in the future.
Atheneum Global Teacher Training College is a leading provider of courses in teaching English to speakers of other languages (TESOL). Our courses are delivered 100% online through Atheneum’s e-learning platform. Our teacher-training qualifications are among the most widely recognized and respected in their field.
This course is suitable for experienced teachers of ESOL hoping to work in an area or organization that requires a an advanced course, eg more senior teaching positions, academic management, teacher training or work within the higher education sector. The 450 hour course in TESOL is ideal for those who want to further their skills and knowledge both for their own personal development and so that they can support and guide less experienced colleagues.
Practicum is an essential component to a teacher’s training process, as it provides valuable insight and experience prior to obtaining independent teaching positions. Atheneum Global Teacher Training College requires that all students accumulate a minimum of 6 hours for TEFL/TESOL certification. These hours can be achieved through observation, tutoring, student teaching or a combination of 2 or 3 of these in an ESL/EFL setting in which non-native speakers are learning new English language skills.
Our three learning blocks enable us to mark you fairly, using your reflective diaries (10% of your final grade), your assignments (40% of your grade), and your teaching practice (50% of your grade). So regardless of your learning style you will be able to obtain a high score through hard work.
