I've wanted to add (or add back!) ESL/ ESOL certification to my teaching certificate. Seems like a great time to do it if I can find a good online course. Checked out Coursera, but ended up getting spooked by the Coursera reviews and the choppiness of the presentation. The class was from Arizona State University, and it seemed fine, but it stretched 15 hours of coursework over 6 weeks. I'd like to go faster.
Got any other recommendations for online learning of ESL strategies? The Quizlet stuff I found was more about quizzing, not just learning the current framework. I did 300 hours of in-class learning years ago, but let it lapse as I was heading to grad school in counseling...now I want something to do part-time if I can't find an intervention job. My state doesn't require coursework (only pass the Praxis test on the subject!) but I'd like to be prepared for the test and the task of educating new English learners.
Ideally, a course I can login to, read, take some quizzes online, then print out a certificate and submit for my license renewal would be great. The last courses I did were $70 each, and I needed 5 of them, so not too bad. Thanks for any ideas!
