About the Program
The TESOL course from EIL Ecuador prepares you to teach English effectively using innovative methods and practical experience.
What is the SIT TESOL course?
The SIT TESOL Certification Course is an intensive and practical course for training English teachers, and its graduates obtain an internationally recognized certificate in English teaching (TESOL).
Course participants join a team of colleagues and trainers to conduct workshops and teaching practices under observation with real students. It is a competency-based course, meaning all graduates have the necessary skills to plan, teach, and analyze English classes, focused on the students and their learning.
The course is designed, accredited, and continuously monitored by the prestigious American university The School for International Training—an innovator in the areas of English teaching, experiential learning, and reflective practice. The School for International Training is a division of World Learning, a private nonprofit organization that promotes global leadership and cultural exchange.
Why choose the SIT TESOL certification course?
Professional Value: The certificate and the course itself are backed by the internationally respected name of the School for International Training (SIT). It was designed to impart the core principles and competencies of SIT’s Masters in TESOL, and to maintain this standard, the course is taught and continually assessed by professionals trained directly by SIT.
Individual attention: The majority of our courses are very small, with only 5 or 6 participants, and we always guarantee that there will be no more than 6 participants per trainer. Our trainers work full-time with the participants and are truly committed to supporting you so that you succeed in the program.
Pedagogical Consistency: Experience is the best teacher, and our participants experience the best pedagogical methods in every aspect of our course. We ask that our participants teach active classes, focused on the students and their mastery of skills—that’s how we teach the TESOL course. You will never hear from our trainers, “Do as I say, not as I do.”
Lifelong learning: You will gain practical tools that you can use immediately in the classroom, but your learning with SIT TESOL doesn’t stop there. Teaching is a demanding profession that is always changing. With SIT’s focus on experiential learning and reflective practice, you will be prepared to continue adapting and experimenting wherever your professional path may take you.
