Student Comments
I have really enjoyed this course and am very glad that I chose Global English. All of the staff have been so helpful and friendly, making it seem as though I actually count! Thank you so much everybody.
Laura Goode
I have just completed my first session of teaching. All but 2 of my 17 students passed the exams and have moved on to the next level. I believe this success rate is due to the training I received from Global English. Your Guidance on lesson planning has proved invaluable.
David Mearns
I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of this course. Clare Welch was a great tutor, all my questions were immediately addressed, and I found the course material to be challenging and thought provoking.
Jacqlene S

Certificates
It is an enormous TESOL world for those with the skills, confidence and an accredited TESOL certificate behind them.
Most online providers only offer their own final certificate, but because Global English has sought external accreditation, ACTDEC awards your final certificate. This means you and employers can verify that this course has met strict external quality criteria.
Best of all, ACTDEC certification fees are included in the price - so there is nothing extra for you to pay for this quality guarantee.
