Honest about where we stand
There's no single official body that regulates TEFL worldwide, so it pays to know exactly what a course's accreditation covers before you buy.
What we are: an unusually high-quality TEFL course for the price, one that actually teaches you how to teach English.
Practical by design
Every unit trains you with real teaching decisions like the four below, and selected units show real ESL classroom videos. From Premium up, you can also add practical assignments or demo lessons marked by a tutor. Pick an answer and see why it works or doesn't.
For demonstration only. In the course, lesson flows are longer and come in many visual styles, from gamified to more formal.
TEFL curriculum

The $29 Online Specialist course covers online teaching throughout the units. Premium adds the dedicated Online Teaching unit and a bonus unit on teaching with textbooks.

No. There's no single official body that regulates TEFL worldwide. Independent accreditors review TEFL courses, and a smaller number of courses, such as CELTA and Ofqual-regulated Level 5 awards, sit inside national qualification systems.
No. We're not Level 5 yet, and we'll never equal CELTA or DELTA. Our courses are accredited TEFL-TESOL courses that suit around 95% of the entry to mid-tier TEFL job adverts we checked.
Most will. Our graduates have found work with employers such as EF English, Cambly, VIPKid, Preply and EPIK in South Korea. A few employers ask for CELTA, DELTA or Level 5 by name, and they say so in the job advert.
Yes. Graduates have used their TEFLmasters certificates in teaching visa applications for South Korea, China, Vietnam, Thailand and Taiwan. Certificates can be notarized and apostilled through our UK notary partner for about £80, and we make no money from it.
