Course Overview
Our Diploma in TEFL covers both, teaching skills in general and teaching EFL in particular. The first part gives a very detailed insight into what it means to be a good teacher, how to create and deliver successful lessons, classroom management, how to deal with difficult students, and much more. There are no assignments for this part of the course, as we really want to concentrate on Teaching EFL in this course. However, you must read the materials and fill in your personal development journal. Of course, we will be discussing any questions you have regarding any materials in this section during our regular online sessions.
The main part of this course concentrates on Teaching EFL and will provide you with a comprehensive skillset to teach English as a Foreign Language.
