Course Description
The International TEFL Diploma Course
The course consists of 148 classroom hours, of which there are 12 hours of classroom-based teaching practice and 8 hours of teaching real foreign students while observed by your trainers. On the course there are a maximum of twelve trainees to two qualified native-speaker trainers. All teaching hours are observed by professional trainers and individual written and oral feedback is given to each trainee after each lesson.
Upon successful completion of the course, trainees receive the International T.E.F.L. Diploma. Trainees also have the option of choosing the dual certificate program, with the goal of attaining both the International T.E.F.L. Diploma as well as the T.E.F.L.-Czech Certificate. The T.E.F.L.-Czech Certificate is a qualification for trainees who wish to teach English in the Czech and Slovac Republics. It will show potential employers that you:
- have received training in specific areas of difficulty for
Czech-speaking students
- have a knowledge of the Czech school system
- have had basic training in the Czech language
This qualification has been designed by the school who feel that is important for their trainees teachers to understand the customs and traditions, and also to learn a bit about the educational system and language before going into the job market.
