TEFL TESOL Courses: No Degree Required, No Age Limit - ✔️ ✔️ ✔️ ITTT
Do you want to start a new career teaching English abroad but are concerned that you lack experience and qualifications, or are simply too old? Don't be. As far as we are concerned, the international market for TEFL qualified teachers is so vast that there are plenty of great opportunities out there for everyone. Previous teaching experience is certainly not an issue as the vast majority of people teaching English overseas have never worked in a classroom before they took up their existing post.

Why take a TEFL / TESOL course - ✔️ ✔️ ✔️ ITTT
There are many reasons to take a TEFL course, not least because it is the best way to enable you to work almost anywhere in the world as an English teacher. While there are still some countries and employers that do not require teachers to have a formal TEFL/TESOL qualification these places are gradually becoming few and far between and the days where simply being a native speaker of English were enough to guarantee a teaching job are mostly long gone.
Increasingly, those hoping to teach English as a foreign language are required to have a certificate of at least 100 hours if not 120 hours. Therefore having a TEFL certificate opens up far more employment opportunities than would be available without one. Taking the time to study and complete a course also shows employers that you are...
