This is an assignment-based course only. The course is specifically developed for participants who wish to teach young learners (aged 4 to 11) and teenagers (aged 12+).
To embark on it, students should be preferably TESOL trained or those with some teaching/tutoring experience. However, students with 'O' level-equivalent qualification and have a strong interest in teaching will also be considered.
The most important thing is that students must be fluent in both oral and written English at the proficiency level.
This 10 unit course will give you insights into how children learn language -both mother tongue and English. You will discover new ideas for activities for both young learners - aged 4 to 11 and teenagers -aged 12+
You are assigned a personal tutor as soon as you enrol, who will give you help and guidance through the course as well as mark your assignments and give you personal feedback.
