A qualification in TESOL can open up a number of career opportunities both in Australia and overseas. Learn how to design a syllabus and confidently teach spelling, grammar, pronunciation, reading, and writing to students from a non-English speaking background. With Australia’s migrant population continuously increasing, qualified TESOL teachers are always in demand. Employers are looking for qualified candidates who are caring, work well in a team, and can communicate clearly with people from diverse backgrounds.
