English Language Teacher Training Course in Bournemouth:

CertTESOL Course (4 weeks / 120 hours)
Our courses run for four weeks and at the end of each week you will have completed a number of assignments and tasks. Each week has been designed to complement the next and you will undertake assignments and  mini-projects in a specific order to ensure that your learning is as seamless as possible. Each week of the four week course consists of at least 30 hours spent training and this is also supplemented by work that you must complete in your own time.

Entry Requirements:
No previous teaching experience is required in order to gain entry to the course but a high level of spoken and written English and evidence of qualifications for entry to higher education are required. The most important pre-requisite for the course other than the above is a willingness to learn and a sense of enthusiasm!

TESOL Course Content:

- Language Awareness: In this unit you will cover English grammar, phonology and aspects of linguistic understanding.

- Teaching Skills: This is the main unit in which you will gain real teaching experience with genuine language learners. You will cover teaching methodology, create a teaching practice journal and a teaching observation journal.

- Materials Assignment: This unit will enable you to plan, produce and adapt all kinds of learning materials.

- Learner Profile: In this unit you will analyse an English learner and diagnose their strenghts and weaknesses. You will then help them with a specific area of their learning and provide recommendations for their continued study.

- Unknown Language: Designed to let you experience and study teaching techniques, this unit will put you in the shoes of your potential students. You will find out what it is like to learn a language you have no knowledge of and you will gain experience of the teaching methods taught on the course.

At the end of the course, you will meet a representative from Trinity (the course validating body) who will ensure that you are ready to progress to teaching professionally.
