Courses

“Because I’ve begun volunteering in Cambodia I wanted to improve my knowledge and skills in teaching English to non-native speakers, so I looked around at the kinds of courses available. The local universities all offered four-week, full-time courses, but it seemed like a step backward to pretend I didn’t already know quite a bit about teaching English and have to ‘start from scratch’. I looked at a few online courses and found that TESOLAU was one of the few, if not the only, provider offering both a Cert IV in ESL as well as a certificate in IELTS training. Within minutes of filling in the contact form on their Web site, I received a phone call from Lyn who asked me about my background and said that it would be possible to create a customised program where my previous coursework and experience were recognised. The staff were more than accommodating, adjusting the tasks and feedback to suit my schedule and being flexible about daytime and evening videoconferencing sessions.”

"I am still in China, having taught English here at a University for one year and am now settled into my second year with an offer to extend another year. I am so grateful for your assistance and so pleased I did your course. It has enabled me to hit the ground running, making it easy to prepare lessons and delivering them at the right level. It seems I am quite popular with my classes being over-subscribed each Semester. So to come here was a very good move for me. I am enjoying China. I work only 4 afternoons each week so I travel each 'long weekend' and holidays. I love my students. They are motivated, bright and respectful."

Thank you for all of the practical instruction throughout the course. The videos are so great and very clear. They ensured I knew how to study the course properly. I'm now teaching in Japan and loving it!

As a full time worker, I was vey happy with the practical and efficient 140 hour online TESOL Certificate provided by TESOL Australia. They have experienced staff who assist in completing an informative and relevant course.

This is a quick note to say thank you to Joshua, Sue, Jane and Margarita and the TESOLAU team for all the assistance I received through my TESOL journey (140hr International TESOL Certificate). Assignments completed and practicums done! I now look forward to putting all my learning into practice as I volunteer at a little remote primary school in the north east of Thailand starting next week. I have enjoyed the ride and thanks again, Shaune.

"Recently I completed a 140-Hour International TESOL course with the director of studies Ms Lynette M. Kim. She is an excellent teacher enabling her students through sharing her vast experience and practical skills. Her lessons are informative and in practice work well to not only give the skills needed but the confidence required to enable us to make a difference to those who are endeavouring to become fluent in English as a second language. After completing the course I am keen to put my newfound knowledge into practice. I wish to thank Ms Lynette M. Kim for giving me a new direction and the confidence to take it."

"I have just completed my TESOL Cert IV online course and I loved it. The units where fun, informative and challenging. If I got stuck on a question there would be plenty of support to answer any questions and I would have no trouble in completing the tasks. After I completed the course in my own time, I had an interview with a school, and now I'm leaving for my new teaching career in China tomorrow! Overall I would say it was: easy, great fun & rewarding... especially if you love adventure."

"The program of the TESOL course was very comprehensive and Lynette managed to engage all of us in a very productive manner. We were easily able to cover the whole teaching manual. Lyn is a wonderful teacher, whose skills and personality creates a safe and friendly atmosphere. Additionally, Lyn introduced to us a number of experienced guest speakers, who helped all of us on our journey to become English teachers. Thank you Lyn and the team for an extraordinary experience!"

"TESOL Australia has helped me live my dream! I can now travel and take my work with me! I've been living in Mexico for two months and loving it! I am so glad I used this organisation, as it's helped me gain the experience and qualifications I needed for teaching online. I would recommend it to anyone."

"As an international education agent, we have worked with TESOL Australia on numerous projects including short-term study tours and long-term teaching programs. The teaching quality of their graduates is excellent and all of our customers and students were always more than satisfied. We will continue to work with them as our preferred business partner in Australia."

"The International TESOL Diploma taught me everything I needed to know in order to become a successful teacher in the ESL industry. Their integrated teaching approach struck the perfect balance between theoretical knowledge and practical experience. Since graduating, I have taught in many different areas in Australia, online, and around the world."

"The TESOL Australia Certificate IV in TESOL has been great professionally and personally. I have a completely new career I absolutely love and will continue with for many years to come. The lessons are lively, interesting and engaging. Thank you Lyn for a fantastic course and for the brilliant encouragement and job support you have given me post-graduation."

"TESOL Australia has opened great opportunities for me and because of the training and ongoing support I have gained invaluable experience as an ESL teacher. I’m currently teaching international students in Surfers Paradise, Gold Coast and loving it."

"The IELTS Teaching Certificate has enabled me to change my career path and given me the skills to gain employment that is both satisfying and exciting. I was very impressed by the professionalism of Lyn and her staff and their extensive amount of experience and knowledge that they transform into a vibrant, interesting and educational program. Invaluable to me were the practice sessions with international students that gave me first-hand experience in teaching. Without hesitation, I would highly recommend the course to anyone who is serious about teaching IELTS in Australia or overseas."

"The 140 hr International TESOL Certificate has been a valuable learning experience. I feel that over the duration of the course I have gained a lot of knowledge. Great material and easy to learn. I was very pleased to meet Jane who fully supported me during the practicum. She has given me the confidence and the strength to believe in my self, to stay focus during difficult tasks and to maintain motivation high. I thank you all for opening a new door of opportunities."
