Course Structure

Within twenty four hours of enrolling in your online TESOL course you will receive your login details for the INTESOL Online Campus. The course consists of five units (a total of eleven modules). Each module has a lesson that you will study at your own pace and an assignment that you will submit for grading by your tutor. When your assignment has been graded you will receive a notification by email and be able to view your grade, plus any guidance and feedback, on the campus. If you happen to fail a module, don’t worry, you will be given the opportunity to re-submit your assignment after a little extra coaching.

There are no final examinations. As soon as your last assignment has been graded you will be able to view your final grade. Your final grade is calculated by taking the average of your ten grades for the ten assessed modules. This will be the grade shown on your Certificate.
