The MCI TEAL course is designed to offer Montessori teachers, TEFL teachers and other educators a Montessori perspective on
the teaching of English as a second language.
Beginning with an overview of Montessori's approach to language teaching, the course examines for comparison a range of
opinions on first and second language acquisition.
This is followed by practical ideas for introducing a second language into the classroom using Montessori materials and
the creative curriculum.
The course also focuses on grammar, spelling and pronunciation and preparation for using the phonetic approach to
teaching reading and writing.
Stage I Certificate fees includes:
- your course materials which are yours to keep
- tutorial support for the duration of your Stage I studies
- administrative support and guidance from MCI distance learning advisors
- a free copy of Montessori International magazine and a half-rate subscription offer
- free workshop and seminar information for three years
- study skills guide and student handbook.
The Stage I Certicate must be completed within two years of registration and is entirely assessed by marked course work
- there are no lectures or examination.
Stage II Certificate
Your Stage I Certificate is awarded when all the theory of the TEAL Course has been completed successfully.
Upgrading is optional. Students who have successfully completed their Stage I TEAL Certificate and who wish to continue
their studies can opt to upgrade to Stage II Certificate, which includes practical training, by completing a two-week TEAL
workshop and examination.
At present these workshops are only offered at our London college.
Students can attend this workshop at any time during their Stage I course and take their Stage II examination at the
end of their studies on a mandatory date.
All elements must be completed within three years of their first registration.
