YOU'RE NO LONGER WANDERING EXILES,

Ephesians 2:19-22 (MSG)

I loved my students! Their willingness to continue to learn and grow was inspiring.”

A TEACHER'S STORY

In 2019, I taught English in a refugee camp with Middle East Refugee Relief. I loved my students, and seeing their willingness to continue to learn and grow after the horrors and hardships they had been through was inspiring. It was a privilege to help them in any way I could along that journey and TESOL gave me the tools to do so. — SHELBY, CLASS OF 2018

NEXT SESSION BEGINS OCTOBER 1st, 2022

  • Start together

    If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together. We believe you will do better in the course when we all start together. For this reason, we are organizing several different sessions and cohorts that you can join throughout the year. In the first few weeks of each new session, you will have a chance to get to know your classmates. Whenever the course is in session, we will also offer weekly webinars and other features to give you additional support and learning opportunities. Join us at the starting line for the next session! (Don’t want to wait? You can get started now and finish the course at your own pace.)

  • Finish at your own pace

    When you start the course, you can choose between two different tracks: The Fast Track gives you the option to finish in 12 weeks (following the schedule outlined below), while the Extended Track allows you extra time to relax and finish the course at your own pace in under a year. You can take as much time as you need to finish the course!

  • Schedule for upcoming sessions

    OCTOBER 2022 SESSION: Classes for Module 1 are scheduled to begin on October 1st, 2022. Students in the Extended Track can spend as much time as they want. Students in the Fast Track will finish a new module every two weeks, and we will offer optional webinars and additional feedback to support this fast-paced schedule. Want to start right now?
