Are TEFL courses accredited? - ✔️ ✔️ ✔️ TEFL FAQs
While many TEFL courses boast about their quality, not all are accredited. A key indicator of a reputable TEFL course is its accreditation by recognized organizations. Additionally, independent reviews can provide insight into the course's quality and the support services offered by the provider. It is crucial to ensure both the course and its accreditation meet the standards expected by employers.
Why are courses accredited?
Who provides accreditation for TEFL courses?
1) University Accreditation
2) Private Accreditation Providers
Watch out!
Almost every TEFL course provider has some form of external accreditation for their courses. Without external accreditation, the qualification and manner in which it was achieved could come under scrutiny when applying for jobs and work visas. After... [Read more]

How much is it to do a TEFL course? - ✔️ ✔️ ✔️ TEFL FAQs
Within the TEFL world there is no standardized content or set course length, which allows providers to offer any style of course they want at whatever price they see fit. When choosing the right option to suit you it is best not to simply go for the cheapest one available as it may not be of sufficient quality or depth to satisfy potential employers in the country you wish to work in. Also, cheap courses are unlikely to provide suitable preparation for starting a new career as an EFL teacher. To give yourself the best start to a new life teaching English abroad it is recommended that you consider more than just the initial cost of the TEFL certification course.

Helpful and Fun Outdoor ESL Activities - TEFL Blog
Elizaveta Pachina
Teaching Ideas
What outdoor activities can help to teach English? I would like to say that there are plenty of outdoor activities that are effective to teach English. However, many teachers prefer indoor activities rather than outdoor, as they think that it might distract the students. Nonetheless, outdoor activities can increase their motivation for learning. Also, it helps to decrease their stress level, as they do not have to stay in the classroom as usual.

Throughout this course, my favorite units have been the ones that teach us how to lead an effective lesson and have a fun classroom environment.
