Introduction
This is a very intensive two week full-time course designed to prepare experienced teachers whose first language is not English for the Cambridge ESOL TKT.  The course is designed to prepare candidates to be tested on their knowledge of concepts related to language, language use and the background to and practice of language teaching and learning.

The TKT is composed of three modules, which participants take on the last day.  The content of TKT is tested by means of objective tasks, such as matching and multiple choice.  Candidates are not required to listen, speak or write in English on the test.  The course does not include practical teaching.

This course can be combined with a teaching practice component or with an English language component.

 
Entry Requirements
Candidates must have a level of English equivalent to IELTS 4.5
