Rachanivov3, i don't know where you live, but, for example, Drake University offers a BA in Music. Not all EFL/ESL gigs require a BA in English. Drake requires a minimum of 124 credit hours for their major. Why not try contacting them to see if your diploma would count towards any credit hours towards a BA with them?

now, to get this thread back on topic:

would any posters who have done DELTA Module 1 feel comfortable commenting on if :

1) You received input before the exam. What was the type and length of the input (conversations with tutors? feedback on papers? Specific references from books?)
2) You didn't receive input before Module 1, and passed the exam, what references were helpful?
3) Module 1 has helped you in your teaching context. How?

For those who have done Module 2:
1) What is your teaching context? Does it support a communicative teaching method? If not, has Module 2 helped you in your teaching context? How?
2) Did you have teaching experience before doing Module 2? If so, where did you teach?
3) Did you pass Module 2? If not, would you feel comfortable sharing the feedback you received from your DELTA tutors regarding the reason for the failure?
4) Where did you complete Module 2? Were you teaching/living/working in that country at the time?

For those who have done Module 3:
1) Did you do a master's degree in TESOL before completing a DELTA Module 3?
2) What topic did you write on for Module 3?
3) How long did it take you to complete the paper?
4) Did you pass Module 3? If not, would you feel comfortable sharing the reason for the failure?
5) If you didn't do a master's degree in TESOL before doing Module 3, how long did it take to pass the Module?

Have any posters only done Module 2 and are happy in their subsequent teaching context?

ttxor1:

Consider also posting your Delta questions on the Cafe's general discussion forum for better exposure to more Delta holders/trainees than just on this China forum.
