Description

OnTESOL was developed by Coventry House International, the only school in North America that offers Trinity CertTESOL courses, to provide students with the flexibility of taking an internationally recognized TESOL/TEFL course online.

We offer a 120-hour online TESOL program, which is recognized by TESL Canada Professional Standard 1 and ACTDEC UK Level 3, and a 250-hour online TESOL program, which is recognized by TESL Canada Professional Standard 2 and ACTDEC UK Level 5.

The Advanced 120-hour TESOL Certificate is perfect for those who want to teach English in Canada or abroad because it is very similar to CELTA and Trinity CertTESOL. The 250-hour TESOL Diploma is perfect for those who want to pursue a teaching career because it goes deeper into various lesson planning formats and teaching methods.

Our Teaching English to Young Learners (TEYL), Teaching Business English Course (TBEC), Teaching IELTS, and Teaching Online specialist programs prepare trainees for specific classroom situations. Save $200 when you add a specialist to any of our TESOL course packages!

I took some online courses for accounting at university and professors didn’t provide half the support that my tutor provided at Ontesol. He answered my questions on time and challenged me with excellent feedback on each and every assignment. The course was intensive but I feel I’ve become a much more dynamic teacher than I used to be. I feel more comfortable in front of my students and they seem to enjoy my classes a whole lot more.

I chose Ontesol.com based on positive reviews from past students. I am happy to say that I am very pleased with my decision. Despite having experience teaching, I still learned new things from the 100 hour certificate course. I particularly enjoyed the Phonology module. My emails to both my tutor and Ontesol.com were always promptly responded to, and my tutor was very encouraging and informative. Needless to say, I greatly enjoyed my experience and I am now considering upgrading to the 250 hour course.

I absolutely love the 100 hour – TEFL course. I have used these methods in my lesson plans and I have received some good feedback from my colleagues. I was nominated to talk about my creative, effective lesson plans in a training session 🙂

I do recommend it to anyone who is willing to take his/her professional career a couple of steps up.

Good Luck everyone and thank you ONTESOL

I took the 100-hour Ontesol course in order to learn and to get a formal qualification for my C.V.

Language schools here in Istanbul are familiar with the Ontesol course and regard it as a good one. I found the course better than I expected. The course materials are excellent. The tutor whom I had, Claudia, was expert in both English and in teaching English. She was always there to help with any questions and corrected assignments giving lots of explanation about what was good and what was not-so-good. You can also re-do the assignment after this input and increase your score. Taking the course on-line gives you great flexibility. You can work on it whenever you want, even wherever you want. There is plenty of time to finish the course. I am a very happy customer.

This course was amazing! I could have just gone to South Korea with my Bachelor of

Arts degree to teach but to be honest I am really glad that I took the 100-hour course

before applying to go. This course is extremely informative and will give you a

great deal of knowledge on teaching English. A lot of great resources are brought to

your attention and a lot of great teaching methods are shown to prepare you to teach

and to be successful at your teaching. I highly recommend this course to anyone

interested.

Ontesol’s course was perfect for me because I could work on the assignments when

and where I wanted. In addition, I really appreciated the guidance and

advice my tutor gave me for the assignments, tasks and exams I handed in.

The comments left on my every assignment and exam have been very detailed

and helpful!

I took the 250-hour course and I was very pleased with the course content, organization, administration, and tutoring. ONTESOL delivered on its promises. Administration responded promptly and professionally. Being in Foreign Language teaching for almost 20 years, I was impressed with the course content. It was both concise and comprehensive. I particularly appreciated the grammar and phonology sections and references. Regarding my tutor, I was very impressed by his professional competence and linguistic ability. He is a most talented writer! I bombarded him with questions of minutia and forwarded assignments in bursts. He seemed to take it all in stride. He made me feel at ease and guided me well through my challenges. Perhaps most importantly, my tutor managed to bridge the virtual gap to become a real person rather than a black and white email response to my queries. I’m not sure how he did this, but I am thankful and commend him for his skill in this regard.

I have to say I truly enjoyed the readings, the task and assignments.

Before starting this course I was somewhat arrogant in my attitude, having

taught English in Korea for six years already. I was unsure of how much I

would benefit from the material. Not only was the course interesting, but

it quickly uncovered some misconceptions I had had regarding English

grammar and it refined my teaching techniques. I now have more confidence

and feel that I can do a more worthy job in my classes. This course also

despelled the doubts I had regarding online courses, which I used to think

may not be worthy

I was impressed with the organization of the course, both the admin office and my

tutor were quick to respond to any queries i had. With regards to my tutor I thought that the support she gave me throughout the course was excellent and the comments she offered when marking my assignments were insightful and helpful. I would recommend this course to anyone looking for a reputable online TEFL course

This course, the full course with the three modules, was simply fantastic! Being my first on-line learning experience, I really wasn’t sure what to expect. But with seven years of teaching experience, I had never expected anything so interesting, challenging, and enlightening. Practice oriented tasks and assignments filled with helpful tips and super feedback made the work inspiring. I am definitely a better teacher now. Ontesol offers a first-rate course that I can confidently recommend to anyone looking for further qualifications in the ESL field or simply wanting to solidify their proficiency in teaching.
