    Mapping the CertTESOL to specified units of the PTLLS

    The Trinity College London CertTESOL maps to the following unit

    assessment criteria of the Trinity Diploma in Teaching in the LifelongLearning Sector (English ESOL). Where a criterion is not met or onlypartially met during the CertTESOL, additional input and assessment will berequired in part two.

    How CertTESOL meets the criteria

    Section A:1.3 Evaluate own role and

    responsibilities in lifelonglearning1.4 Review own role andresponsibilities inidentifying and meeting theneeds of learners

    Section GUnit 1: Teaching Skills,

    pp. 19-22

    Also notes onprofessional awarenessand development, pp.32-33

    All unit 1 objectives, demonstrated skills,topic areas and assessment of practical

    teaching skills serve this purpose,including guided observation, teachingpractice, tutor feedback and teachingpractice journals.

    In addition, teachers should review theirroles and role boundaries within thelifelong learning sector

    Section A:1.1 Summarise keyaspects of legislation,regulatory requirementsand codes of practice

    relating to own role andresponsibilities

    Section GSupplementary Notes onProfessional Awarenessand Development, pp.32-33

    Trainees need to develop awareness of theprincipal sectors of employment in theESOL field and the most common andreliable means of obtaining information onemployment and employers.

    However, key aspects of legislative

    requirements and codes of practice for thelifelong learning sector will not(necessarily) be covered specifically on theCertTESOL and further assessment isrequired on this area

    Section A:2.1 Analyse theboundaries between theteaching role and otherprofessional roles2.2 Review points ofreferral to meet the needs

    of learners2.3 Evaluate ownresponsibilities in relationto other professionals

    Section GUnit 1: Teaching Skills,p. 19

    Unit 3: Learner Profile,pp. 26-27

    Trainees must cater for learner needs with reference to lesson planning, remedialactivity and error analysis.

    However, points of referral available in thelifelong learning sector will not be coveredon the CertTESOL and need further review.

    Section A:1.2 Analyse ownresponsibilities forpromoting equality and

    All demonstrated skills and topic areas inthis unit are relevant, including the abilityto understand and adopt different teachingmethods and styles, the ability to balancethe requirements of accuracy and fluencyas aims in teaching and the ability tobalance teacher-teacher and learner-learner participation.

    Section B1:2.4 Review how to provideopportunities for learnersto practice their literacy,

    language, numeracy andICT skills

    Section GUnit 1: Teaching Skills,pp. 19-21

    Demonstrated skills all contribute to thisaim, in particular the use of languagegames, role-play, songs and drama toachieve learning aims and the tutor andself-evaluation assessments, particularlyon the achievement or non-achievement ofaims or learning outcomes.

    However, the embedding of ICT andnumeracy skills is not covered specificallyand requires additional assessment.

    Section B1:1.3 Evaluate aspects ofinclusive learning2.1 Analyse inclusiveapproaches to learningand teaching

    Section GUnit 1: Teaching Skills,pp. 19-21

    Demonstrated skills must include theidentification of needs for differentlearners, the preparation of appropriateaims and the ability to adopt differentteaching methods and styles for differentgroups. Teaching practice feedback andself-assessment (pp. 20-21) focusspecifically on an evaluation of theeffectiveness of these approaches.

    Section B1:2.2 Analyse how to selectresources to meet theneeds of learnersSection B2:1.1 Plan a session forlearning and teaching thatmeets the needs oflearners

    Section GUnit 3: Learner Profile,pp. 26-27

    As part of this profile assignment, traineesmust draw up a simple linguistic profileand needs analysis and plan and teach oneor more lessons that aim to build on one ormore of the identified areas of weakness.

    Section GUnit 1: teaching Skills, p.22

    Trainees are made aware of the mainforms of test most useful in assessinglearners performance in English.

    Section B1:2.3 Explain how to createassessment opportunitiesthat meet the needs oflearnersSection D:2.1 Evaluate how toinvolve the learner in theassessment process2.2 Analyse the role ofpeer and self-assessmentin the assessment process

    Section GUnit 1: Teaching Skills,p. 22

    Unit 3: Learner Profile,pp. 26-27

    Sensitization to different assessmentprocedures

    Trainees must draw up a simple linguisticprofile and needs analysis for one learner,and use this as the basis for preparingbroad recommendations and one or more

    taught lessons duly considering the rolepeer and self-assessment.

    Section D:3.1 Explain the need tokeep records ofassessment of learning3.2 Summarise therequirements for keepingrecords of assessment inan organisation

    Unit 3: Learner Profile,pp. 26 - 27

    The profile assignment requires trainees tokeep comprehensive notes on the learnerssocial and cultural background, providetranscriptions of learner language, givesample tasks for the diagnosticassessment of the four skills and providean evaluation of the learners currentlinguistic proficiency.

    In view of the above, we propose that the award of the CertTESOL covers

    the majority of the learning outcomes for the PTLLS. Further review ofcriteria 1.1, 1.2 and 1.3 is required. Content and assessment for thesecriteria is therefore required prior to candidates completing part two of theDTLLS. This is not required for already possessing a PGCE, Cert Ed, stage 3qualification or equivalent who can pass directly to part two of theprogramme.b) Additional Diploma in Teaching English (ESOL) in the Lifelong LearningSector Modules
