General Guidelines
The aim of this course (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) is to train good, practical classroom teachers who have command of the basic procedural skills used in giving all the types of lessons according to the EFL/ESL/ESOL methodology. Also developed is the teacher’s ability to devise lessons and evaluate published materials with specific reference to the learners’ language problems. In view of this, the course is essentially participatory in nature and Teaching Practice forms a major component.
All applicants of 18 and older with at least high school education are eligible to apply. However, the application is subject to approval. Applicant needs to provide information on at least two (2) references including names, telephone/fax numbers and addresses. Non-native speakers are advised to provide the evidence of at least 10 hours of actual classroom teaching practice together with two references, although this last condition is circumstantial and can be reviewed in certain cases.
English is an international language and speaking it fluently does not mean teaching it proficiently. English is a uniquely versatile, flexible and culturally adjustable domain. Its impartiality towards racial, political or religious affiliations is an outstanding cultural drive that makes it ideally international. People speak English in every corner of the world, but only commitment to serve the cause of teaching English makes them equal no matter where they were born or raised. Armed with this philosophy, we never distinguish teachers as native or non-native speakers. Teachers of the English language have no race, nationality or religion; they have citizenship. Have we forgotten that 99% of top linguists of the English language never considered themselves as native speakers?
We do not certify your level of language proficiency; we certify your abilities to teach English.

Our purpose is not to fail our own trainees, but to help them obtain what they need and want. The schedule of tests will be negotiated with the applicant to collect required points. Success in a test does not mean that a trainee will become what we and employers want him or her to be. In the course of training everyone reveals his or her attitude and abilities in true colors. We do not judge by numbers in scores, we judge according to potential. However, should you fail first time you will have another chance within the following week from the date of failure. If you still fail to pass, you will be allowed to retake test next month also 2 times. However, the second set of tests may not be available free of charge as the first 2 ones.
Minimum requirement is upper-intermediate or close to one. Judge yourself - if you do not have appropriate level, how are you going to teach. Although for kindergarten and primary school levels you have to acquire at least intermediate fluency.
