Cambridge ESOL teaching awards
-*- ICELT -*-
Cambridge ESOL (English for
Speakers of Other Languages) offers the world's leading range of certificates for
both learners and teachers of English. A Cambridge ESOL certificate
can help you gain entrance to college or university, improve your prospects at work,
or simply provide a measure of your progress in English. It operates in a
hundred and thirty five countries worldwide and each year over one and three quarter
million people attempt to gain a Cambridge ESOL qualification.
Cambridge ESOL is part
of Cambridge Assessment, formerly
known as UCLES (University of Cambridge Local Examinations Syndicate), a
non-teaching department of the University of Cambridge, England. Cambridge
Assessment is Europe's largest assessment agency and one of the largest
internationally recognised assessment agencies in the world. A not-for-profit
organisation, it is currently celebrating it's one hundred and fiftieth anniversary
(2008).
TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language)
and TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages)
are umbrella terms for all the various English language teaching
awards available worldwide. As such, all Cambridge ESOL teaching awards
are 'TEFL courses' (or 'TESOL courses').

Application procedure
Applicants must observe the following application procedure:
- Complete the online application form (including the written assignment).
Upon receipt of a successfully completed application form we will contact you to arrange a date for your
interview.
- Your interview may be conducted individually or as part of a group, and you should allow at least one and
a half hours for the process.
- At the interview you will be set a language awareness task, a teaching methodology awareness task, and you may
also be asked to write another short essay. The aim of these tasks is to help us assess your suitability for
the course, as well as your ability to develop an awareness of language.
- We will ask you your views on language learning and teaching.
- If successful you will be offered a place on the next available course and asked to pay a non-refundable £200
(GBP) deposit to secure your place on that course. Payment may be in cash, by cheque, or via electronic
transfer, e.g., internet banking. Bank account details are available upon request. See
the contact page for details of our postal address (for cheque payments).
If you cannot be in İstanbul for your interview we will send you a set of questions designed to help you prepare for
a telephone interview which will last approximately thirty minutes. As with face-to-face interviews, you will
be set a number of tasks which we will expect you to complete and then email to us as soon as your telephone
interview is over.
