This course is designed for anyone lacking formal a formal professional teaching qualification who is currently teaching. It will also suit people who wish to train teach students in the 14-19 year age range, although for all practical purposes, it covers the teaching of adults, too. If you just wish to sample the video lectures and receive a certificate of completion from me, you are most welcome to do so. However, anyone requiring an internationally-valid teaching certificate will need to register and complete the required work via a personal e-portfolio. You must also submit two video recordings of genuine teaching practice.
