TEFL FAQs
What is TEFL?
TEFL is an abbreviation for Teaching English as a Foreign Language. The English community uses this acronym, similar to TESOL (Teaching English as a Second Language), to refer to the teaching of English to non-native English speakers. A TEFL certificate is a globally recognized certification that is required to teach English to non-native speakers both online and in person.
What is required to get a TEFL certificate?
BeyondTEFL requires proficient fluency in English (B2 and above), an internet connection, and the course fee for all TEFL certifications.
Other online TEFL courses typically require a high school diploma/GED. Some in-person TEFL courses may require additional education, such as an associate’s or bachelor’s degree, as well as proof of English fluency for non-native speakers.
How many TEFL course hours do I need to teach English?
Most English teaching jobs abroad accept traditional 120-hour certifications. Specialized areas of study, such as Teaching Business English (TBE) and Teaching English to Young Learners (TEYL) may require additional hours depending on the employer.
What’s the best TEFL course to teach English abroad?
A traditional 120-hour TEFL course is the best course for teaching English abroad. BeyondTEFL’s accredited certification courses are recognized by public and private schools worldwide and are done online.
What’s the best TEFL course to teach English online?
BeyondTEFL’s 120-Hour Online TEFL course is the best and most flexible course for teaching English online. Online TEFL courses are less expensive than in-person courses and are accepted by nearly all online teaching platforms.
Do I need a specialty TEFL course?
You do not need a specialized TEFL course to teach English in person or online. Most teachers are content with a standard 120-hour TEFL certification, but specialty courses will improve your teaching skills, benefit your students, and increase your chances of being hired.
Do I have to be a native English speaker to teach English?
Though many schools only hire native English speakers, non-native English speakers are still hired all over the world, both in person and online. The main requirements for employment are a high level of English proficiency and a TEFL certification.
How long does it take to get TEFL certified?
The time it takes to earn a TEFL certification differs depending on whether the course is taken online or in person. Quality online courses typically take 1-3 months to complete. In-person TEFL courses vary, but for the traditional 120-hour TEFL certificate, teachers must complete a total of 120 hours, spanning from weeks to months.
How long is a TEFL certificate good for?
TEFL certificates have no expiration date and are valid for life. However, with the rapidly growing language education sector, as well as the advancement of technology, it is recommended that you maintain an updated TEFL certificate as well as any specialty courses you may find useful throughout your career to maintain knowledge of current teaching practices.
