Teacher Training Programs
Teaching English as a Second Language (TESL)
Archer College is a leader in teacher training. We have been training Canadians (TEFL Certificate) and international students (TESL) for over a decade. All of our programs contain:
- Classroom instruction
- peer teaching
- supervised practicum
- observation classes
Be prepared to work hard on homework, readings, lesson planning and assignments. These are challenging but practical and successful courses. Our graduates find work all over the world.
Based on the Communicative Approach to ESL training, these courses produce well-trained, confident teachers with the necessary skills to be effective in the classroom. You will study and use different teaching techniques and methodologies which cover such things as language skills and systems, communication skills, linguistics, evaluation techniques and classroom management techniques. Resources to take away from the courses include classroom games, skill specific activities and tasks, ice-breakers and lesson plans.

Each month you can choose a specific area of focus. Certificates are also awarded to students completing one or two months of the program.
