Online TEFL / TESOL certification.
registered you can begin the course straight away. We will send you an email containing all you need to get your studies underway, including your personal login details for our online TEFL /TESOL training platform. Once signed in to the platform you will have access to all the materials required to complete the first unit of the course. When you feel you have absorbed the information sufficiently you can then take an automated online test based on the materials for that first unit. The test is a short, multiple-choice assessment that is designed to test your understanding of the unit before you move onto the next part of the course.
To pass the course you will need to achieve a grade of at least 75% across all the unit tests as a whole. After working through all the course units (20 for our most popular 120-hour course) you will then need to complete a summative task in order to finish your training. The summative task is a short written thesis on a suitable subject that you have chosen from a list of our suggestions. Once your summative task is passed by your tutor you will complete the course and receive your TEFL / TESOL certificate.

You get underway by tackling all the theory behind teaching English via our online training platform. This part of the course can be completed from home at whatever pace you set for yourself and it comes with the full online tutor support. Once all the online units are completed you can then book your place at one of our training centers where you will complete your TEFL / TESOL course.
