Workshop rotates in a cycle of one year. In April, a new round of Web Workshop begins. It is a good time to start the course. You can study the course materials along with the workshop.

Programme Structure

In our workshop series, trainees are able to participate in a variety of tutor-led sessions that focus on various aspects of the 150 or 180 hour Certificate in TESOL courses.  This is not only a great way to share your ideas with other students on the course, but also a great opportunity to receive expert guidance from tutors who have numerous years of TESOL experience in Japan and abroad.  Sessions are 45 minutes in length.

Note: This is an optional component of the course.
