About Program
The Teaching English to Young Learners (TEYL) Certificate course is
designed for teachers who plan to teach or who are currently teaching
young children between the ages of 3 and 10. The course aims to provide
both recent TESOL/TEFL graduates and practicing TESOL/TEFL trained
English teachers with the necessary skills, confidence and ability to
effectively plan lessons for young learners, supplementing their existing
knowledge about teaching. The course introduces a specific method of
lesson planning used for young learners that takes into consideration the
characteristics of children and the classroom management needs
suitable for each age group. Ideas on how to teach in an engaging and
active manner that is suitable for children is also explored in this course.
Course participants will complete a project that includes planning a
one-week thematic unit, writing detailed lesson plans for a specific age
group, and micro-teaching activities for young learners to peers on the
course.
