The
mission of the Asian EFL Journal TESOL Certificate
is to develop those who wish to become teacher's
of English and existing practicing teachers
with a high degree of ability and competency
as English language teachers.
The
Asian EFL TESOL certificate is unique in that
our editorial staff, unlike any other TESOL
certificate, come from across the globe, and
are available to guide and direct students in
multiple directions - unlike the mono direction
offered by all other courses. TESOL is about
teachers and learners across the globe and their
unique roles. Theories, Approaches, methods
are in flux. Culture may at times exacerbate
that flux, and it takes an expert in that TESL
jurisdiction to guide you - TESOL methodologies,
unlike what other courses teach, are multi-faceted.
It is our aim to broaden your TESOL knowledge
and critical analyses on a global scale.
Our
proven commitment by providing the world's leading
on-line free journal testifies to our aims -
provide the best education resources and teaching
for everyone.
Our
editors and advisors are world leaders. Their
work is undisputedly on the leading edge.
In
an increasingly competitive world that relies
on English as the global lingua franca, the
Asian EFL Journal is in a class of its own.
A journal with world leaders providing the best
training.
To
that end we will soon embark upon a TESOL data
base - all courses will be entered in that data
base and all courses will be assessed. The teacher
and future teacher in the TEFL profession deserves
the best -it is a rewarding job - but it is
encompassed at times by fraud and deception.
At the Asian EFL Journal, we will lead the way.
The future of TESL must begin now.
Who
are the course teachers?
Your work is done on-line. Depending on which
unit you have selected, an Editor who specializes
in that field will supervise your work.
