Many overseas teachers in regular schools find themselves being asked to teach adults after school and on weekends. Some teachers work with language schools that have corporate clients who want their managers and staff to learn English for various reasons. If you are teaching adults or would like to, then you should take our TEFLA course. It will give you all the information you need to do so effectively and professionally.
What You will Learn
The TEFLA course covers a lot of ground. It will teach you all about teaching adults generally - why it is different from teaching children.TEFLA will show you how to teach the essentials to adults, teaching idioms, expressions and how to use music and art as teaching aids. It gives you a good understanding of many forms of ESP (English for Special Purposes), TOEFL and TOEIC so you will be confident in teaching each of these specialized English courses.
It will help you, as an experienced teacher, to learn how to effectively use CALL (Computer-assisted Language Learning) and WALL (Web-assisted Language Learning) with adults. The course even shows you how to develop your own interactive lessons and make them available to your students on the Internet. Click here to read the course outline.
