International TEFL and TESOL Training works with some of the world's largest TESOL/TEFL certificate course providers (including TEFL International and The International TEFL Corporation) to offer the opportunity to take an internationally recognized certificate program in an interesting and exotic location abroad or online.

We understand that choosing a TEFL/TESOL training course can be quite a daunting prospect. In our quest to raise the standards of TEFL/TESOL teaching world-wide, we offer several components unique to ITTT and TEFL International (our in-class course provider). As you will see in more detail on the following pages, the hours of observed teaching practice to local, non-native English speakers during our in-class courses is exceptionally high.

Also included in your training will be comprehensive language awareness (grammar) and phonology training. This prepares teachers for many grammatical and linguistic

issues that students will face in the classroom. These features, along with the various options available to complete your certificate, guaranteed job placement guidance upon graduation, and accommodation provided for all in-class courses, make International TEFL and TESOL Training one of the most modern, exciting and comprehensive choices available for TEFL/TESOL certification.

ITTT online courses are accredited by OTTSA (the Online TESOL and TEFL Standards Agency), a professional educational organization specializing in maintaining standards for online TEFL and TESOL courses.

Our in-class courses are externally validated and moderated by a Board of Academic Advisors. This board includes several internationally recognized experts in the field of English Language Teaching as well as dozens of regional language experts in language teaching and teacher training.

We also voluntarily comply with the standards of the British Association of TESOL Qualifying Institutions (BATQI).

The principal aims of the organization are:

Increasing international understanding through education.Producing well-trained teachers who will have the necessary skills and confidence to take up a teaching position

anywhere in the world.Providing the most up-to-date, modern courses available.Providing a wide range of courses that cater to all our students, as well as advice on which course best suits their specific needs.Providing professional guidance throughout our graduates' teaching careers.

A TEFL/TESOL certificate is the major qualification required to teach English abroad. There is a huge demand for teachers around the world with opportunities in almost every country.

Taking a TEFL/TESOL certificate course provides the opportunity to travel and work around the world, to gain knowledge and experience of foreign cultures and languages and to embark upon a career in teaching.

TEFLTESOL

International TEFL and TESOL Training opens the door to a wide range of options for completing your TEFL certificate – you can literally adapt your TEFL/TESOL teacher-training to suit your lifestyle and expectations.

In-class course

ITTT works with TEFL International to provide comprehensive, intensive four-week in-class training courses.

n As the cost of living can be considerably lower abroad than in many western countries, the centers at many of our

locations are able to offer their training courses at very competitive prices. Savings made on items such as accommodation, food, drink and entertainment during the four weeks are additional benefits of attending the

course overseas.

Trainees studying with ITTT have the opportunity to experience the feeling and atmosphere of living and working abroad. As the centers are housed in the same buildings as language schools, trainees have a good opportunity to see the way a language school operates and to meet and talk with experienced teachers actually working in the industry.

Trainees are 'on the spot' for any job vacancies (of which there are usually many) at language schools in the country.

The center provides a comprehensive career advice service and help with finding that crucial first teaching position.

The training center provides accommodation at a very low price to trainees who require this service. The accommodation will usually be in a hotel, an apartment or pension shared with other teacher trainees or teachers close to the training center.

The course has a practical, 'hands-on' format, and provides the trainees with the actual skills that are necessary in the classroom.

International TEFL and TESOL Training has training centers in a number of attractive locations on every continent, including Thailand, Spain, Italy, China, France, Australia, Egypt, Costa Rica, Vietnam…

Online course

ITTT offers a number of options for TEFL/TESOL courses that can be completed online with no physical attendance at a training center required. Trainees can choose a course either with a personal tutor to guide them through the learning process, or they can work their way through the course independently.

The ITTT online courses are open to anyone who has a native-level English ability, and include job guidance on completion. They allow course participants to study at their own pace, in the comfort of their own home or even while travelling. TEFL certification can be completed with little disruption to daily life, preparing graduates for their future teaching career.

Combined course

For those looking for a more functional, hands-on approach to the online certification course, we offer a combined course option. This is, in essence, the best of both worlds for those who cannot immediately make the jump from their daily life into a full-time intensive in-class course but who wish to have more practical teaching practice time.

The combined course allows students to study the theoretical aspects of teaching and grammar, etc. followed by in-class attendance for between seven days and two weeks at one of our training centers.

The online component allows participants time to absorb the information of the course content and gives them time to prepare for the move abroad. Attendance at our training centers after completion of the online material then gives them the opportunity to put this knowledge into practice.

Specialized courses

International TEFL and TESOL Training has two specialized courses designed for teachers who are already TEFL/TESOL certified:

Certificate in Teaching Business English Certificate in Teaching English to Young Learners

TESOL Diploma Course

The TITC online TESOL Diploma course is the most advanced online qualification that we offer. The course is for practicing teachers or those who wish to achieve a higher level qualification having already completed a certificate-level TEFL/ TESOL course.

The course is essentially practical and is assessed continuously.

This is a typical course schedule (note that this is an example and timetables will vary from location to location): In the morning, there are input sessions on the skills and methods of teaching. The afternoon /evening consists of teaching practice (in small groups), lesson observation and lesson preparation. The course is, by nature, very intensive.

The course is divided into six areas:

1. Classroom ManagementThis topic includes classroom arrangement, resource materials, maintaining discipline, giving instructions, the role of the student and teacher etc.

2. Teaching skillsThis is a very practical element of the course aimed at

building the candidates skills in areas such as teaching grammar, vocabulary, business English, creating own materials, correction skills etc.

3. Grammar/Language awarenessThis section of the course aims to consolidate the trainees' knowledge of grammar and provide practical ideas as to how it can be taught.

4. Phonology/PronunciationFocuses on areas such as stress, intonation, rhythm and the International Phonetic Alphabet. 5. Unknown LanguageTrainees are put in the position of language students and will be taught an unknown foreign language. This gives candidates a chance to view lessons as a student and note techniques used by the teacher when teaching beginners.

6. Teaching PracticeThis is the most practical element of the course. The trainees teach real students of English and put into practice the skills learnt on the course. Through continuous assessment, thorough feedback and evaluation, trainees are kept up to date on their progress.

Once the payment for your ITTT online course has been received, you will be sent a username and password that will allow you to log in to your course control panel. Here you will find all the information you need to start the course, including full instructions.

Initially, the course introduction and unit 1 will be available to you, with a worksheet at the end of the unit. You read and absorb the material in the first unit and then complete the task sheet independently. Once you’re happy that you’ve understood the unit contents, you would then complete the online test.

As soon as you’ve submitted the test, the results for unit 1 will be displayed, and unit 2 will then become available to you. This is how you proceed through the course, with your overall score given throughout.

Technical assistance is available to all course participants, and those that have chosen a course that includes tutor support are able to contact their tutor at any time regarding

any aspect of the course they would like extra guidance with, or any TEFL/TESOL-related question. Once all course units have been completed, the final task is a lesson plan, which will be submitted and reviewed by ITTT staff.

After successfully completing all course units and the final lesson plan, you will be asked to confirm your postal address, where you will receive your TEFL or TESOL certificate and a letter of recommendation.

The course has been designed to allow for maximum flexibility. As long as you complete the course within six months of starting the course you can work at a pace that suits you. The maximum number of units you can work on per day is three, so you could theoretically complete the course within a week to ten days. You should probably allow for about five or six hours per unit (on average) to allow you to read and absorb the material, complete the task sheet and submit the test.

In order to get the maximum benefit from the course we recommend working on just a single unit per day. This will allow you to complete the course in under four weeks and will give you time to understand the lesson fully and digest the contents. However, if you wish to work through the course more quickly, or slowly, the choice is of course yours.

The ITTT course is unique for an online TEFL/TESOL course as it enables graduates to receive ongoing career support and teacher development after completion and provides an opportunity to see 'real' lessons through our video.

This course aims to provide a solid introduction to the world of teaching English as a foreign language. Upon completion of the course graduates should have a good working knowledge of the English grammatical system (120-hour course only) and an awareness of the skills and techniques required for successful language teaching.

The course is divided into two main areas – teaching skills and language awareness. The teaching skills component provides details of the techniques and skills required by teachers in the classroom while the language awareness component gives a solid foundation course in English grammar.

The course consists of either 20 units, covering teaching skills, language awareness (grammar) and phonology, or 10 units covering teaching skills only. Course components are carefully chosen and organized to ensure a gradual build up of knowledge whilst not overloading students with too much information at any one time. These units allow you to work through the course at a pace that suits your requirements.

In addition, you will receive several post-course units with supplementary information including general classroom tips and TEFL/TESOL employment opportunities.

Post course job guidance:

TITC will provide all possible assistance in finding a teaching position after you have completed the course. This includes the following support services:

Resume/CV preparation Information on likely sources of TEFL/TESOL vacancies Job guidance counseling Job search and application Interview preparation

We are happy to provide this assistance after the course.

position

Online TESOL Diploma Course ContentWe organize our course into 12 modules. All modules with the exception of the last require approximately 16 hours of study – 175 hours overall. The last module is a research based thesis, which generally requires 75 hours to finish. At least 250 hours are therefore required to complete the course.

Assessment with or without Tutor SupportThe 12-unit research-based course is divided into two sections, and participants initially have access to modules 1 to 6. A task sheet accompanies each module, which is completed after studying the associated material, and is intended to self-monitor progress. Once the sixth module has been completed, the test for that section can be downloaded. After successfully completing the test, the process is repeated for modules 7 to 11 and a second test taken. A research thesis is then required.

The DipTESOL Diploma is issued after successful completion of both tests and the research thesis.

Online TESOL Diploma Course pre-requisitesTo take this advanced level course applicants must fulfill the following criteria:

Traditionally, TEFL/TESOL certificate courses have been offered either as four-week, intensive courses in a classroom setting or as 100% distance learning. ITTT can see benefits to both forms of study and has combined the best of both methods into a new and exciting course.

The online element of the course (outlined earlier in this document) can take between two weeks and six months to complete (depending how quickly you want/are able to work through the course) and comes with full online tutor support. Attendance at the training center is for seven or ten days.

This course is ideal for those students who don't work to their best potential in intensive learning programs or for students who don't have four weeks to commit to an intensive course.

Completion of this combined course results in full certification. Please note that this course is only available at certain training centers.
