Introduction

TESOL CANADA is Canada’s largest recognized ‘Online TESOL Centre’ and the Only Official Centre to provide standards and accreditations to Teachers of English TESOL, French TFSOL and Spanish TSSOL across Canada and worldwide. In addition to ESL, TESOL Canada’s main purpose is to research, design and upgrade curriculums and standards in teaching 14 international languages. TESOL CANADA recognition is meant to be your first step in the field of TESOL. Globally institutions recognize accreditations and TESOL memberships awarded by TESOL Canada across Canada, USA, UK, the European Union, South- Central America, and Asia. The TESOL Foundation program includes methodologies, lesson planning, class assessments, levels evaluations, conversation activities, research on language skills development, research on technological updates, class psychology and student management. The TESOL program is for both native and non-native speakers. Non-native speakers can brush up their language skills and learn all the relevant teaching methods. Native speakers can gain substantial information on how to explain grammar rules, or how to teach reading and writing strategies to second language speakers. Participants review the traditional teaching styles, most popular modern methodologies, and develop advanced online teaching skills along with strategies for preparations of lesson plans and activities.
