TESOL stands for Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages

is a qualification that helps teachers understand how language and culture interact. It also teaches you how to prepare many English speakers instinctively know how to use grammar and vocabulary properly but may not be able to explain why or when to use it. This is where TESOL training comes in. Schools worldwide rely on TESOL-certified teachers, and it's a trend that is only increasing. Certification is often the first step for people wanting to teach English as a second language.

The moderator talks to all participants in groups, then individually in an interview, and then samples trainees’ written work.

The European International College will support you all the time in the various parts of your course and assignments. 

How many hours of TESOL do I need?

With most employers – both abroad and online – requiring teachers to have a 120-hour qualification it’s recommended to take a TESOL course with at least these hours.

The more hours the better, right? Not necessarily. If you want to boost your CV the best way of doing this is to complete a 120-hour TESOL course and add on specialist training in areas you’re aiming to go into. Doing a course with hundreds of hours of TESOL training is unnecessary if it isn’t tailored to your aims.

The European international college will put you on the right path in your career and assist you to boost your knowledge in order to obtain better opportunities in the future.

Tutor support

A good TESOL course should come with full tutor support. And these tutors should be highly experienced English teachers.

It’s really important to be able to get feedback throughout your course from someone who knows their stuff. And if you’re studying IN-CLASS this could be more important; without this support and feedback, you’ll have no guidance throughout the course and little idea of whether or not you’re on the right track.
