Program Format
The Certificate in TEYL is a single non-credit course completed 100% online in 15 weeks, designed by David Nunan TESOL Institute Director Dr. David Nunan. New courses begin on the first Monday of each month, and students are graded on a pass/fail basis.
Optional Supervised Teaching
Students who wish to gain supervised teaching experience may add an Online Supervised Teaching Option. In Option A ($300) the student arranges the ESL learners; in Option B ($450) Anaheim University arranges the learners. In both options the student teaches three 30–60 minute classes, records the sessions, and receives written corrective feedback from the instructor.
Textbooks
Program fees do not include textbooks. A student can plan on approximately $30 for the textbook (with a $20 digital option). A textbook list is available in the online resources of the student website.
Student Tuition Recovery Fund (STRF)
The Student Tuition Recovery Fund (STRF) is administered by the California BPPE and applies only to California residents. The STRF fee is currently zero ($0) per one thousand dollars ($1,000) of institutional charges. The State of California established the STRF to relieve or mitigate economic loss suffered by a student in an educational program at a qualifying institution who is or was a California resident while enrolled, if the student enrolled, prepaid tuition, and suffered an economic loss. Unless relieved of the obligation to do so, you must pay the state-imposed assessment for the STRF, or it must be paid on your behalf, if you are a student in an educational program who is a California resident, or are enrolled in a residency program, and prepay all or part of your tuition. You are not eligible for protection from the STRF, and you are not required to pay the STRF assessment, if you are not a California resident or are not enrolled in a residency program.
Payment Terms
Tuition may be paid by check, credit card (Visa, Mastercard, American Express or Discover), money order or bank transfer (the student is responsible for any transaction fees imposed by the institution). The application fee must be paid at the time of application. To inquire about non-interest-bearing monthly payment plan options, email [email protected].
