Frequently Asked Questions

As an internationally recognized qualification, a TEFL certification is a common requirement set by most international employers. Even if a TEFL certification is not explicitly listed as a requirement on a job posting, being TEFL certified will help you stand out among other candidates when applying for jobs teaching English online or abroad.

These TEFL courses are 100% online and self-paced. This means you can begin at any time, study at your own pace and complete the course alongside your work, school or family schedule!

A TEFL certification is the ESL qualification of choice for hiring schools all around the world, but there’s no single international accrediting body in place to govern TEFL course standards.

No accrediting body also means there is no single organization regulating the quality of TEFL courses. That means anyone can create and sell a TEFL course and accounts for the huge range in both price and quality of the sometimes overwhelming number of TEFL course offerings currently on the market. This means that you should be sure to choose a TEFL course from a reputable institution.

Yes! Not only is a TEFL certificate a common requirement for ESL positions online and abroad, but it gives you the skills you need to succeed in the classroom.

A TEFL certificate offers many benefits, from qualifying you to teach English as a foreign language to helping you land a job faster. It also provides you with the skills you need to succeed in the classroom and allows you to build confidence. 

On average, the TEFL courses take approximately 6-12 weeks to complete. However, the course is completely self-paced and you have one year to complete the course.

TEFL stands for teaching English as a foreign language. It’s the most common type of ESL certification employers look for abroad.
