I chose Premier TEFL after a months-long search, and I am happy with my choice. Professional, not oppressive with a thousand emails like... many of the most famous providers ( and this was decisive for me). The contents of the modules are good and offer a lot of hints and materials to continue studying and dealing with the English language. I did the 180-hour Diploma and it required serious commitment that was taken into consideration. I always received prompt and attentive responses. I thank Laura, Emily, Olivia and Jacob. I recommend it to anyone who wants to try to become an English as a Second Language teacher and who is aware of the work it then entails. Thank you to allread more

Questions and Answers

What is TEFL? A Short Guide to Teach English

TEFL stands for Teaching English as a foreign language. It is teaching English to people who don’t speak it as their first language in places where English isn’t the main language. TEFL teachers help students improve their speaking, reading, writing, and listening skills in English by using a wide range of teaching methods, resources, and tasks that keep students interested.

Sometimes, you can get a TEFL certificate by taking a special course that is longer, more in-depth, or more structured. Most countries accept the 180- and 120-hour TEFL courses as valid credentials.
