Q3. What course will I need to complete to become a TEFL teacher abroad?
A: To qualify for most foreign TEFL jobs, we advise students to complete our recommended 120 hour TEFL course, as this is the minimum requirement for the majority of TEFL employers.

If you wish, you can enhance your TEFL employability by completing more hours of study with a premier 140-hour or 150-hour course.

It is important to understand, before beginning your TEFL course that many countries require a university degree for visa purposes. This is mostly true of Asia and the Middle East, but some European countries like Greece and South American countries like Brazil, also have this as a requirement. Therefore, if you have a specific country in mind you would like to teach in, make sure you research if you are eligible for a working visa.

A: The certificate you receive from us will show that you have completed your course with TEFL Org. It will state that you have a certificate in ‘Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL)’, ‘Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL)’ and the course you completed.

It will be signed by the course director and dated.

On the back of your certificate, it will show the learning outcomes, who we are accredited by along with our company Registration Number and all of our contact details.
