In fact, increasing numbers of employers around the world are looking for teachers with recognised international qualifications. Demand is high, especially in China, Korea, Japan, Vietnam and Thailand where EDENZ Colleges already has existing employer relationships. Preparing to be a teacher is a great way to put valuable work experience on your CV, whether you want to focus on teaching alone or use it as a stepping stone towards another career. The short nature of our courses makes it ideal to do during a gap year or while you’re searching for a new job.

Many overseas High Schools and Language Schools are looking for qualified English language teachers. To meet this demand EDENZ developed Q2W. Now, successful TESOL teachers can add valuable work experience to their CVs and have a cultural experience they will treasure. A TESOL Certificate lays the foundation for a career in English Language teaching or acts as a stepping stone to other non-teaching related careers.
Process: Simply apply for a Trinity Certificate in TESOL in the normal way, letting us know at the application stage which country you would like to teach in. Then when you have successfully completed your course, an interview will be arranged either with EDENZ (on the employer’s behalf) or with the employer themselves via phone or Skype. You will have up to 3 interviews with 3 employers.
If successful, you will be offered a place and asked to sign an employment contract. Depending on availability, conditions and the specific benefits package provided by the employer, Q2W candidates receive benefits such as a monthly teaching salary, reimbursement of one flight from New Zealand and accommodation at their place of work. Currently, EDENZ has links with a number of employers, mostly in SE Asia.

The EDENZ Colleges’ DipTESOL programme is superb. The thoroughness and professionalism of the online course tutor is first-class. The Unit 3 Phonology component was particularly valuable and provided a great deal of in-depth methodology that was highly beneficial to my teaching. I gained a great deal throughout the duration of the course and it provided an excellent platform initially for a foray into teacher training and subsequently for my current role as Director of Studies. I can’t recommend the course more highly to those wishing to further their career in the ESL industry.

QUESTIONS
& ANSWERS
QUESTIONS
& ANSWERS
Is New Zealand safe?
New Zealand is one of the safest countries in the world. Like every country, there is some crime, but if students are sensible, the risks are very low. There is no religious tension in New Zealand.
How safe are the fees that I
pay to EDENZ?
EDENZ is registered with the New Zealand government (NZQA), and is required to hold students fees in a Trust Account, so that they can be refunded if the student does not start the course for some reason.
Is New Zealand nice to live in?
The 2014 Mercer Quality of Living Survey ranked Auckland 3rd place in the world on its list, while The Economist’s World’s Most Livable Cities index of 2014 ranked Auckland in 10th place.
Can EDENZ arrange
accommodation for me?
Yes, in fact you can choose between our Auckland City Campus or Snells Beach for group or study tours.
In the city you can stay in one of our shared apartments on the top two levels of our Auckland City Campus. It’s a great way to save on the cost of public transport and you’ll never be late for class! An on-site supervisor is in residence 24/7 to maintain student safety and monitor behaviour.Accommodation residents have access to public telephones (national and
international calls) and the internet (Wi-Fi and Desktop PC internet data plans are available to purchase at reception).
Our Snells Beach Campus is a 1 hr drive from central Auckland and situated on a 32-acre site in the semi-rural, coastal town of Snells Beach. Block courses, specialised courses and retreats are held at this campus. The campus is entirely self-contained, equipped with lecture theatres, classrooms, a fully functional kitchen, café, TV studio and onsite accommodation. The interaction between international and domestic students, as well as the interaction with both College staff and staff from our various onsite businesses, creates a stimulating cultural experience and a distinctive learning environment.
You can also stay with a real kiwi family and practice your English outside of class. Our Homestay department carefully selects suitable Homestays for our students. Their homes are regularly inspected to ensure quality and safety, and all students are placed in single bedrooms. Other facilities such as bathrooms, TV and phone/internet (if available) are more commonly shared with the host family. Many business students go to a Homestay for their first few weeks, before finding friends to share an apartment with.
Can I keep in contact easily?
The internet is widespread, and students have plenty of access for email. Many students find it simple and cheap to get a new SIM card for their GSM phone while in New Zealand, rather than having to buy a new phone.
