As well as course content, future employers also check to see that you have completed your teaching practice hours. It is necessary that you have received 6 hours of observed teaching practice and have been given constructive feedback on your performance together with comments on your own lesson reflection. In addition to these hours we offer you the option of teaching a further 6 hours. The choice is yours! This is done in addition to the 120 hours course period and there is no extra fee.

You will be guided through the process of planning, preparation, implementation and reflection of each lesson. At the end of the course you will be able to:
- plan effective lessons for the language level of your class
- apply the theory of language learning to your lesson preparations
- implement current teaching methodologies into your classroom
- successfully manage an EFL class
- have fun with your students

Who are the students?
We provide you with the opportunity to teach as many different levels as possible. You will teach children and adults.

Assessment:
Students are assessed continually throughout the course. Each student will teach a total of at least 6 hours of classes in order to meet international standard course requirements. The student must satisfy the trainer that he/she has reached a satisfactory and competent level of teaching proficiency.

Course Schedule:
Duration of the course is a six week period Monday to Thursday. Evenings are free as are the weekends. Some independent study during the evenings/weekends is required so that students may complete assignments and prepare for the next day's sessions. We do realize that most of our trainees will want to sample the many delights Samui has to offer, therefore there are no classes on Fridays and weekends.
