Teaching and assessment
The course is divided into two parts, training inputs and teaching practice. In the mornings, you will teach real ESOL classes at Bromley College and give and receive feedback on your own and your peers' teaching. In the afternoons, your trainers will deliver practical training sessions on the basic techniques and subject knowledge needed to teach language.
Assessment is based on your teaching practice and four written assignments.
Progression
This initial qualification will enable you to begin practising as an ESOL teacher in both the state and private sectors, or abroad.
