I've just
started studying for a qualification called the DELTA. This is the Diploma in
English Teaching to Adults provided by Cambridge University. Basically, it’s
the highest qualification you can do in ESL with the exception of getting a
‘masters in linguistics’.
Its split into
three modules which you can take together or separately (I’m doing them
separately). I’m starting with module one which will require 4 months of
distance learning before taking a written exam in December. If all goes well I
will be looking to complete the final two next year. Module 2 is a bit more
complex than modules 1 and 3 as it involves being observed.
However first
things first, I need to pass module 1. I’m doing this through the distance
delta program (the link is below) who give me my reading and exam tasks on a
weekly basis.I’ll keep you all posted with the progress.
If I do pass
this qualification it will open up lots of doors for higher positions around
the world as well as training opportunities and management positions.
