TEFL is a very popular teachers training program and stands for ‘Teaching English as Foreign Language’.
TEFL Academy is renowned for its Online TEFL or TESOL courses and
is considered to be a pioneer in this field. The advantage of the
TEFL and TESOL courses is that they are recognized and accredited
worldwide. In spite of these courses being online, the Certificate
given to the candidates never mention the word ‘online’, thereby
rendering TEFL Academy’s online courses as valuable and creditable
as the in- class counterparts.
TEFL Academy has divided the TESOL courses in three levels
namely, Online TEFL Foundation Course (60 hours), Online TEFL
Advanced Course (60 hours) and a combination of both ‘ TEFL
Professional course’ of 120 hours.
TEFL Academy’s TEFL Foundation course is ideal for aspirants or
even professional teachers interested in taking up English teaching
jobs in different parts of the world. As the name ‘foundation’
suggests it can serve as a stepping stone for English teachers. As
the course is available online, anyone with an internet connection
can pursue the course from the comfort of their homes or anywhere
else without getting into the inconveniences associated with
traveling.
The TEFL Foundation Course is of 60 hours and is divided into four
phases. Each phase consists of assignments which a candidate needs
to finish and send across to online tutors for evaluation. After the
evaluation the candidate is allowed to start with the next phase.
The online evaluators and the videos provided to the trainees help
them to follow the curriculum better but all the trainees are
encouraged to participate in self-study and gain knowledge of their
own accord.
TEFL Academy has significantly brought down the teachers training
fee by making it available online and charges a very economical
fee of 195$ for the Online TEFL Certificate course.
TEFL Academy has introduced the online Advanced TEFL course for
teachers who have already done a TEFL or a TESOL certification
course and is interested in upgrading their skills or for new
teachers who want to have an edge over the others in the fiercely
competitive market.
The advanced TEFL course is more valuable and provides greater
understanding of the teaching process than the foundation course.
TEFL Academy’s TEFL Advanced course is of 60 hours and takes about
3-4 months to complete.
This course is divided into four phases. Upon payment of the course
fee, the candidate is provided with a username and a password to
access the study material online and start on the course. The
presence of videos and consistent assistance by the online tutors
over the mail and chat facilities help make the process of
e-learning easy. At the end of each phase, a candidate is expected
to complete the assignment and send them for online evaluation.
After receiving the evaluation results and feedback, the candidate
is allowed to start with the next phase.
Like all other TEFL Academy courses, the Online Advanced TEFL course
also comes at a nominal fee of 195$.
Teachers can combine TEFL Foundation and TEFL Advanced Course and have a 120 hours TEFL certificate. The cost of this course is just 350$.
TEFL Academy’s online TEFL courses have become very popular in
recent times because teaching English has evolved to become one of
the most popular professions in the world. In this age of
globalization, communication has become easy between different parts
of the world. Technological advancements like the internet have
further facilitated this process. The boundaries of mankind have
thus, expanded and in order to excel or further one’s social,
economic, educational or professional affairs, the need to reach out
beyond the geographical territories of one’s country has become
essential. In such an age, English has risen as the global language
and serves as the primary medium in which people of different
nationalities and mother-tongues communicate. The Asian countries
are not an exception in this case and even in this continent English
has emerged as the language of the economy.
This phenomenon has obviously given rise to a huge English teaching
job market all over the world. A larger number of people are
relocating and applying for teaching English jobs abroad so that
they can visit and Asia hosts some of the most developing countries
like China, Thailand and Korea. These countries have been doing
extremely well in the industrial fields and have carved out for
themselves an important place in the world economic structure. But
all these countries are essentially non-English speaking nations and
they are quick to realize that their growth can be stunted if they
don’t educate themselves in English language and reach out further
in the world. Hence, they hire trained non-native as well as native
English teachers.
Teaching English jobs abroad provide an entry to different countries
in the world, which is otherwise a little difficult to get and also
provides the necessary financial support. Taking up teaching English
jobs abroad provide a fantastic opportunity to learn about different
societies, cultures, religions and people. It is an enriching
experience to interact with the locals on a personal basis and get a
first-hand experience of a different world.
English teaching jobs in Asia is currently booming with the coming
of ASEAN. There is a huge demand of English teachers especially in
countries like Thailand and Vietnam. ESL teachers can have a
lucrative teaching career in most of the countries in Asia. The
teaching profession is not just limited to foreigners as local
people with good command over English language are also hired by
schools. In Vietnam and Thailand, the teachers can earn more than
1000$ per month along with other benefits. The ESL jobs are
available in schools, colleges, universities and also corporate
offices. Teachers are hired by private organizations as well as
state run schools. For teaching English in Thailand or Vietnam, the
teachers need to have good English communication skill and a
recognized TESOL or TEFL certificate.
As English teachers in the Asian countries, the teachers will not
just earn a living but can have adventure and experience of their
life time. It is best way to explore vibrant cultures, taste exotic
food and travel to some of the most gorgeous destinations.
