If you're ready to invest in formal Kansas City TESOL certification training, Varsity Tutors provides online courses that are among the best in the industry. TESOL is a catch-all acronym for "Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages," encompassing both TESL (Teaching English as a Second Language) and TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) opportunities. English language skills are in demand throughout the world, so there are plenty of career opportunities available to those who are certified to teach them. If you would like more information on how we can help you pursue TESOL certification, keep reading to learn more about our services.
A variety of different organizations provide TESOL certification or "certificate programs," with the latter term used by organizations such as the TESOL International Association. There is generally no standardized exam that serves as a benchmark of TESOL programs. Instead, you complete the certification or certificate program when you finish its corresponding practicum, or the coursework an organization requires candidates to successfully complete. Most of these programs cover the same material, so taking a Kansas City TESOL certification class can be a great way to pursue your goals.
For instance, your Kansas City TESOL certification course instructor can review topics such as designing curricula, dealing with disruptive behavior, and assessing reading proficiency during your sessions. We thoroughly vet every course instructor, so you can trust that you are receiving the most accurate information available in your course. Your instructor is also verified to be a great communicator, so don't be shy about asking questions if you don't understand something.
Your instructor can also cover some of the broader skills you need to pursue a TESOL career. For example, time management can get tricky when you're trying to juggle TESOL coursework, an academic schedule at a local college such as Park University, or even a career. If you're feeling overwhelmed by everything expected of you, your instructor can teach you how to meditate to give you a chance to assess your situation and devise a plan of attack.
While many of our competitors expect you to travel out of your way to attend TESOL classes, our proprietary Live Learning Platform puts you in control of where you study. Our exclusive Live Learning Platform is mobile-friendly digital classroom software, so you can study anywhere with a stable internet connection. If you don't want to leave home, you don't have to. You don't need to worry about the quality of your study experience either, as powerful features such as video chat capability and a virtual whiteboard provide a robust class comparable to anything you could get elsewhere.
You can also see and hear your peers on our platform, allowing everyone to work together toward their goals. If you have a hard time explaining the fundamentals of writing, one of your classmates may be able to suggest wording to you. Likewise, explaining how to teach vocab words to your fellow students can reinforce the information in your own mind. Many people find it easier to learn in a collaborative environment, so don't be afraid to incorporate your peers into your studies.
Varsity Tutors also strives to make Kansas City TESOL certification training as convenient as possible. We provide two- and four-week courses concurrently, making it easier to find a fit for your busy lifestyle. Likewise, new courses launch on a monthly basis so you never need to wait too long to get started. You can also set aside private study time with your instructor if you feel like you need a little bit of extra support.
