As we head into the new year, we’re all making resolutions and thinking about how to make our lives better. One way that many people are thinking of doing this is by looking for a new career. If you’re considering starting a career in teaching English as a foreign language (TEFL), or just want to enhance your skillset then studying online could be the perfect solution for you!

The Rise Of Online Learning

Online learning is one of the most popular and practical options for people who want to study TEFL. You can study from anywhere, at any time of the day, and in your pyjamas if you so desire! The TEFL Academy’s online courses are delivered via an online learning platform. This means that students can access all materials from their home computer or mobile device.

Internationally Recognised And Accredited Qualification

All of The TEFL Academy’s courses offer the same internationally recognised and accredited qualification, taught by our very own native in-house and experienced English speaking tutors.

For those looking for an exciting new career, our Level 3 and Level 5 diplomas teach you how to teach English as a foreign language, how to teach English as a second language, how to teach English as an additional language and also covers areas such as grammar and phonetics.

Our courses are recognised worldwide and regulated by Ofqual (UK government), accredited by Qualifi, and approved by the DEAC (U.S. Department of Education recognised awarding body). This makes The TEFL Academy the most accredited TEFL course supplier in the world, and the first to be supported by the UK and US Governments!

Unbeatable Support

Learners will have access to a wide range of support options, including tutors and TEFL experts.

• Online tutorials and webinars are available for those who wish to learn more about the TEFL course they are taking.
• Learners can also access online forums where they can ask questions to other students or even the TEFL course tutor.
• Our Student Services team are also reachable through 24/7 live chat, email and on the phone! 

Receiving Your Certification 

Once you have completed either your Level 3 or Level 5, you will receive a hardcopy TEFL certificate. The certificate is awarded on completion of the course and can be used to apply for jobs and makes for a great addition to your professional CV.

Travel, Teach and Work

Studying for an online TEFL certificate has become increasingly popular in recent times as people seek more flexible ways of learning that suit their lifestyles and commitments.

TEFL is a great way to travel and live abroad. It’s also popular with people who don’t have time or money for traditional university degrees. What’s more, many of the positions you’ll find yourself applying for come with a slew of benefits ranging from flexible working hours, travel insurance, and sometimes even living accommodation. 

Conclusion

If you’re looking to kickstart a new career in TEFL or simply want to add another qualification to your CV, then The TEFL Academy is the place for you. No TEFL course provider is as accredited by regulatory bodies as we are, we have a wealth of support options for the courses themselves and finding positions after completion, and our internship programs provide an alternative experience for those looking for it!
