Gain the freedom to work from home or travel the world while working by teaching English online or in the classroom.

Do you want to teach English, either at home, online, or abroad, but you’re not sure where to start? Our TESOL Certification course is fully accredited, internationally recognized, and will give you the tools you need to be successful as a teacher of English as a Second Language!

TESOL means Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages, and is sometimes referred to as a TEFL certificate - which means Teaching English as a Foreign Language. With a TESOL/TEFL certificate, you show the schools that you’re applying to that you know how to teach - from lesson planning and classroom management to theory and pedagogical techniques.

TESOL certification, just like its equivalent, TEFL certification, is what you need if you plan to become an EFL or ESL instructor either in a traditional classroom or online. You’ll see this requirement listed in TEFL job postings for online teaching companies, English language schools, and other institutes around the world that hire English teachers. Usually, a TEFL/ TESOL certificate of 120 hours is the minimum standard to qualify for these types of jobs.

Disclaimer: The content of our 120hour TESOL certificate course and our 120hour TEFL certificate course is the same. TESOL (which stands for Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) is primarily used in North America, while TEFL (which stands for Teaching English as a Foreign Language) is used more in Europe and Australia. However, both courses are intended for the same purpose.
