The
popularity of TEFL in Phuket is steadily increasing in keeping with Thailand’s
meteoric rise on the world tourist and business map. This Southern island is the
de facto entertainment capital of the country – a place where you can indulge in
mind blowing merriment and also immerse in great spiritual experiences. Among
Phuket’s greatest attractions are sublime Buddhist shrines and statues, the
quaint old city, great shows, picturesque beaches and waterfalls. Rawai beach is
where American TESOL Institute conducts its TEFL certificate course in Phuket.
This destination along with its incredible beauty is known for the incredible
Thai cuisine.
With its increased global presence, and the importance of knowing and
communicating in English in Thailand has increased manifold. The importance of
TEFL and TESOL in Thailand has grown simultaneously. TEFL in Thailand is not
only popular, but highly lucrative and sought after, and Phuket is no exception.
The TEFL Certificate Course in Phuket is conducted by the American TESOL
Institute. The TESOL Certificate Course is a comprehensive full time curriculum
covered over a period of four weeks, with a complete instructional period of 120
hours. The students during the four weeks course are given extensive foreign
language experience, taught four language skills in detail and provided a strong
grounding in various aspects of English language like grammar and phonology. The
approach is practically oriented and usually demonstrative in nature, thus
clarifying the practical aspects of the theoretical groundings. Interactive
Teaching Techniques are employed to give the learners an inductive feel of
English, which increases one’s familiarity with the language. The students are
provided with a highly realistic ESL teaching setting, and assistance in
placement is also advanced.
