Ways to Take the Trinity CertTESOL
The pre-course tasks also include our complementary pre-course professional development course Using Google Apps for Education kickstarter.
The full-time course is an intensive programme and requires total commitment. In addition to in person course hours, you should allow between at least 8 to 10 hours a week for reading, lesson preparation and writing up journal assignments. This would be in the evenings and at least part of one day at the weekend.
If you have any other obligations during the period of the full-time course, such as a part-time job, it is highly unlikely that you’d be able to fulfil the course requirements. You should also be in good health, be able to access a quiet study space at home, and be able to manage the stress arising from an intense course.
Our blended part-time courses have 2 evenings of Zoom sessions per week, and one morning to mid-afternoon session on Saturdays.
A typical week on a part-time online CertTESOL is as follows:
MONDAYS
6:00 pm – 10:30 pm
Teaching Practice, followed by Feedback on Teaching Practice. And finally, Supervised Lesson Planning for the following TP session.
THURSDAYS
6:00 pm – 9:45 pm
Input Sessions x 3
SATURDAYS
9:00 am – 3:15 pm
Input Sessions x 4 and Journal Review & Guidance
The rest of the week is flexible regarding when you study as you will be working with the materials on our online platform – write your lesson plans, teaching materials, and journal assignments for the course units at a time that is convenient for you. We estimate that trainees should spend about 7 hours per week on these self-study tasks to complete all course assignments successfully.
We share and present materials through Google Classroom and Google Sites.
This is a great opportunity to complete the course without having to travel, give up your current job, pay for accommodation and living expenses without money coming in… and still have the same great results!
