How it works
Every year, millions of international students apply to universities and colleges in English-speaking countries such as the UK, USA, Canada and Australia. Many of these students don’t speak English as their first language but entry to these institutions and continued success is dependent on an excellent command of the language.
All this means that English for Academic Purposes (EAP) lessons are highly sought after by students around the world, which makes it a specialised area of TEFL in high demand.This advanced TEFL course will take you through everything you need to know to start teaching EAP lessons for the first time. You'll learn about the different types of EAP teaching, the skills most important to students studying at this level, and how to create the most effective lessons for your students. By the end of this course, you’ll be qualified to teach EAP for the first time and start charging for lessons.
Please note: this course assumes prior TEFL knowledge, so we recommend first completing a 120-hour/Level 5 TEFL course.

What our graduates say
The lessons were great- I liked being able to re-take quizzes if I didn't get all the questions correct. I also liked all the amazing resources available. Also, tutors were really quick to grade assignments, and gave very good feedback.
