H.Cert. (ES) TESOL
The overall aim of this Level 4 programme is to equip trainee teachers with the initial knowledge and skills needed to work in TESOL, with an in-depth focus on particular aspects of teaching and learning, and to provide a grounding for reflective practice and further professional development. The main differences in learning outcomes between a Level 3 and a Level 4 course is that Level 4 takes a slightly more in-depth look at differentiation, assessment and professionalism.
aims
The Higher Certificate Level 4 testifies to a candidate's ability to manage and implement teaching and learning methods and to having a foundation in current and historic research and theories in the field of ESOL. It is aimed at candidates with little or no experience in TESOL who are seeking to work in the field of ESL or EFL. It enables them to seek employment as certified teachers of English to Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL).
