The International TESOL Diploma
What Sets It Apart?
IELTS training – IELTS is the ‘International English Language Testing System’. Millions of students worldwide have to undertake the IELTS test as evidence of their English language proficiency (over 2.5 million tests were taken globally, last year alone). There are simply not enough IELTS classes or specially trained teachers to meet the demand. The majority of students studying English today and those in the future, will need to take an IELTS test in order to:
- Get a good job in their home country
- Get a promotion or pay rise in their home country
- Get into further studies in their home country
- Study other courses overseas
- Obtain a residency visa in an English speaking country
- Apply for a job in an English speaking country
How Will You Be Better Equipped?
As a TESOL Australia trained ESL/IELTS teacher, you will have the edge in skills and knowledge as the vast majority (possibly 90% or more) of ESL teachers do not have IELTS training in how to:
- Administer mock IELTS tests
- Score mock IELTS tests
- Create detailed reports on students current IELTS ability
- Create detailed reports on what is needed for a student to achieve their required test result
- Teach IELTS classes
- Private tutor IELTS
- Put together a needs specific program of IELTS study
Achieving a good IELTS test score is considered a ‘life-goal’ for many students, and they spend countless hours and large sums of money preparing through:
- ESL schools
- Private lessons in person
- Private lessons online
How Does IELTS Training Set You Apart?
TESOL Australia’s IELTS Teacher training will make you a highly sought after teacher by potential private students as well as ESL schools online and overseas. This training includes (7) exclusive Online One-on-One hour sessions with a specialised Cambridge IELTS Trainer.
Undertaking an official IELTS test at an IDP Testing Centre, costs a student approximately $395. Once the test has been completed students must wait around 2 weeks to receive their results in the form of an IELTS ‘score’ in bands of 0 – 9.
Students never receive back their actual marked test leaving them without any guidance and feedback on how their test score was calculated. This means, a student has no idea in what areas of each of the 4 test areas of; listening, speaking, reading and writing they have failed.
As a result, students have no real idea what they actually need to study in order to gain the test result they require.
This situation leaves students desperate for accurate guidance and individual ‘needs specific’ IELTS lessons. Being able to provide that IELTS guidance and offer individually specialised lessons will set you apart from other ESL teachers/tutors.
