TEFL Practicum: Best Methods in Developing and Delivering Lesson Plans

Learn how to be in control and maintain an effective learning pace when teaching English as a foreign language in this practical TEFL certificate course.

You will review techniques of teaching the basic ESL and EFL skills and pronunciation and grammar. You will then apply these techniques in organizing activities and practice – teaching them to partners and groups through simulated teaching opportunities and experiences.

At the end of the course, you will feel confident and knowledgeable in:

• developing teaching activities and lessons for the different skill areas
• providing effective error correction during teaching
• applying useful classroom management skills in a simulated classroom situation

Note: Students must pass at least 2 face-to-face TEFL classes or 2 TESOL classes as a prerequisite for this course. However, this prerequisite does not apply to those students who are enrolled in the summer/winter intensive format of the Professional certificate.

This is a required course for the Professional Certificate in Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) certificate program.
