TEFL/TESL/CCA Certificate Program
Ecuador
Description:
TEFL/TESL/CCA Certificate Course. Our TEFL/TESL/CCA Certificate Program is an internationally recognized Teaching English as a Foreign/Second Language course that is the first of its kind in Quito, Ecuador's capital city. It is a 120-hour program that includes a unique CCA (Cross-cultural Awareness) module and 4 hours of officially observed classroom practicum. Upon successful completion of the course, graduates receive an internationally accepted certificate in the teaching of English as a second or foreign language, officially recognized by Juniata College, Huntingdon, Pennsylvania, U.S.A. The program offers you the unique opportunity to not only learn and practice TEFL, but also the chance to live the lifestyle of a TEFL teacher in a foreign country. Offered in January-February and September each year, openings for each of the two courses are very limited.
