About ATI

TESOL or Teaching English to speakers of other languages is the flagship product of the American TESOL institute. The American TESOL Institute or ATI was established in Baton Rouge, LA, USA in 2002.

TESOL, an internationally accredited teacher training program, has garnered immense popularity across the globe.

TESOL instills in the teachers the special techniques of teaching the basic language skills viz. reading, writing, listening, speaking. All the possible aspects of classroom teaching and student handling are incorporated in the teaching orientation.

Years of research and inputs from experiences in Asia helped to develop American TESOL Institute’s TESOL program.
