TESOL Teacher Training Certificate Course
Location
United States: Atlanta, Los Angeles and 2 other cities
Description
The program has been designed by Global TESOL authorities to license qualified teachers to teach International English worldwide. Certification applies to teachers from English speaking countries as well as from countries where English is not a mother tongue. Unfortunately, today due to the growing demand in English teachers most of the unqualified teachers are being hired and this compromises the reputation and true value of real professional TESOL education system. To avoid this precedent, TIELC together with Intertesol USA (International TESOL Teacher Training Systems - USA & Canada) issues Certificates and Licenses to teach English as proof of qualification and experience while verifying credentials of a teacher. In order to obtain the license, teachers must take the CETC (Certificate English Training) Course accredited by TESOL.
Highlights
As the result of this training, teachers will pass the final qualifying test and acquire:
* Certificate of a Teacher of English as an International Language
* License of Advance Standing for Teachers of International English
* License to Teach International English
The Certificate and License prove that the holder meets internationally acceptable English teaching standards and can be hired by any school, college, university to teach EFL, ESL, ESOL, EIL worldwide. The certification distinguishes the holder with an internationally acknowledged qualification in teaching English. Currently most of the countries in need of qualified teachers TEFL, TEIL, TESOL, TESL like USA, China, Japan, S. Korea, most of Middle East and European countries are reconsidering their criteria of hiring professionals where the license becomes the milestone to choose the best and secures the Internationally set standards. TIELC has authority to grant 'Certificate of Good Standing' to institutions allowing them to enter a database of internationally recognized schools where English teaching quality matches International TESOL/CELTA standards.
The course espouses three categories depending on credentials the teacher wishes to obtain. However, trainees for only 120- and 80-hour courses can acquire both certificate and license. Licensed teachers have full recognition to work in any country of the world where they are hired as ESL teachers.
120-hour course is titled as the Master course and gives full rights to a holder to teach university and college students, adults and children. Their sphere of competence is not limited. The 80-hour course or Standard one is basically for middle and high school teachers, although it is up to employers' discretion to hire for other levels. The 40-hour course is designed for teachers of primary schools and kindergartens and mostly is used for employment locally. The selection for the level is determined by the passmark in a final qualifying test.
