  Whichever TESOL course you choose, your certificate will be sent to your chosen address via registered post as soon as you complete all the required tasks.

As this is an optional service, it does include a small extra charge. For the majority of graduates this option will not be necessary. However, if you are in a real hurry to land a job and need to prove you are TESOL certified to potential employers or government offices, it might be a small price to pay to get...  [Read more]

  http://www.teflonline.net In this video we look at a TESOL teaching idea for the Present Perfect Continuous. This tense is the one we use when we want to say what has been happening. The activity in the video is called "Guess what I've been doing?" It is a fun activity that can generate a lot of student talk time. Students each receive a card that has two pieces of information on it, a past activity and a result. Each student has a turn of telling the class the result and the class then has to guess the activity using the Present Perfect Continuous. For example, the past activity on a card is "You have been driving your motorbike in the rain", the result written on the card is "You are all wet. Your clothes are wet". The other students could ask, "Have you been swimming?", "Have...  [Read more]

  http://www.teflonline.net This video is the first of two that looks at the structure of the Present Perfect tense. Positive: subject +auxiliary verb have/has + past participle I have played. / She has played. Negative: subject + auxiliary verb have/has + not + past participle I have not played. / She has not played.

For example, eat- eaten, drink-drunk, teach-taught. Most good grammar books will provide you with lists of irregular verbs....  [Read more]
