FAQ:

What is the difference between the Certificate course and the Diploma course?
The Certificate course is ideal for those who wish to gain a fast qualification which will provide them with initial survival skills in the classroom. it covers the basic syllabus of the Diploma, but in much less depth and can be completed in a few days. There are 10 easy to answer questions at the end of each of the 10 units.

The Diploma course is much more academic and covers the syllabus in much greater depth. It is a higher qualification and will usually attract better working conditions and salary. It consists of four modules and requires the completion of 8 assignments - 2 from each module.

What are the job prospects for EFL teachers?
English as a foreign language is a huge industry employing hundreds of thousands of teachers in almost every country of the world. Your tutors themselves have trained hundreds of teachers who are currently employed in a wide variety of locations.

Is the course open to non-native speakers of English?
The course is available to both native and non-native speakers of English. Your tutors would tell you that some of their most successful course members have been non-native speakers.
