GETEX Visitor Wins Free Online TESOL Certification Course Courtesy Eton Institute

May 18, 2010 - PRLog -- The Online TESOL Course worth AED 2375 was awarded to one lucky visitor selected out of a free-to-enter raffle draw of eligible candidates at their GETEX stand. This professional certification course will equip students with the necessary expertise and qualification to teach a language.

Jane Atieno, recipient of the free Online TESOL Certification Course commented “I’m seriously over the moon to have received an online course for TESOL! Though I currently work as a financial officer, I’m very interested in exploring a career in teaching, specifically teaching young learners, as it is such a rewarding profession. An online course would be the ideal option for me, even though I have never taken one before, as it would allow me to study without having to sacrifice work.”

Addressing the need to be a trained instructor, she added “I think it is very important to gain a professional qualification to teach any subject because though you may have the necessary subject knowledge, this does not guarantee that you are able to impart it effectively and engage your students. This course will teach me how to teach!”

Eton Institute offers professional teaching certification courses in TESOL/TEFL (Teaching English to Speakers Of Other Languages/Teaching English as a Foreign Language), CTEYL (Certificate in Teaching English to Young Learners) and TFL (Teaching a Foreign Language) for both aspiring and experienced teachers who wish to upgrade themselves.
