Online and Onsite TEFL Certificate Course
American TESOL Institute gives an
opportunity to its candidates to do both online and onsite course. The
online TEFL course of ATI is as elaborate and good as its onsite course. The
candidates after signing up for the course get a username and password for
visiting the site, submitting assignments, chatting with the instructor and
other students and also listening to lectures on video. The online course
includes all aspects of teacher's training and it makes sure that the
teachers face no problem while teaching as a teacher abroad. After doing the
online course from ATI, the candidates will get a TEFL certificate similar
to the ones given to the onsite candidates. Online courses are also cheaper
than their onsite counterparts and it can be done at the comforts of ones
home. Another advantage of doing an online TEFL course is that while
pursuing the course you can do a job and do the assignments in your free
time.
How the online TEFL course works?
The online TEFL course by ATI is extremely elaborate. The students can chat
with the instructor if they have any problem. There are e-books and reading
materials which are provided in the website, which the candidates can refer
to while writing their assignments. In the 'Travel and Teach Project' by
American TESOL Institute the online trainees will be given reading material
for twenty hours. A cultural orientation is also done after the teachers
reach the country where they are given a job placement. There are also other
facilities like chat and message boards which helps in interacting with the
instructor and the fellow students.
While enrolling to the 'Travel and Teach Project' of ATI the candidates will
also be able to visit the exotic countries while starting an ESL job there.
Thus, even after doing an online course they will be able to travel, sponsor
their trip and get a certificate same as the onsite TEFL certificates.
