TEFL Diploma Course Aims

Our TEFL Diploma course incorporates a wide range of topics, from the design of classroom materials to the wider subject of educational theories. The aim of the course as a whole is to provide participants with a greater understanding of their role as an English language teacher.

As you make your way through the course you should find that your research techniques and essay writing skills are both enhanced. You should also develop several other transferable skills that will be useful in your professional life, both in and out of the classroom.

Diploma Course Assessment

The TEFL Diploma course includes a task sheet with each individual module which you can use to monitor your own progress through the course. Once you have reached the end of module 6 you will need to complete a test that covers all the material that has been covered up until that point in the course. After completing the test you can then carry on with modules 7 to 11 which also conclude with a test that covers the second half of the course. In order to complete the course you will need to submit a research project that is outlined in module 12.

After completing both of the tests and the research project, you will receive your online TEFL Diploma certificate.
