The Certificate IV in TESOL is an Accredited Course, recognised and approved by Government Authorities in Australia. It takes a competency-based approach to training, which ensures that it is clearly focused on the skills, knowledge and attitudes necessary for teaching English to speakers of other languages. The Certificate IV in TESOL is a competency-based course, therefore the assessment items all require a practical demonstration of the ability to complete the tasks involved in teaching ESL. All of the assessment therefore revolves around your practice teaching: preparing lesson plans, materials and resources, implementing and evaluating lessons. At the end of the course, you and your supervisor want to be sure that you can enter an ESL classroom and teach a class.
