Question 1

Which Course is better TEFL or TESOL?

Accepted Answer

Several things determine it. Your budget influences the decision between TEFL and TESOL, the available time, and where you wish to teach English. TEFL programs are ideal for teachers who want to move overseas and educate students in countries where English is not the primary language. TESOL training, on the other hand, is often suggested for teachers who aim to work with non-native English speakers living in an English-speaking country.

Question 2

What can you do with a TESL certificate?

Accepted Answer

A TESL certification will allow teachers to work in native-English schools as a language support teacher, or an instructor in a private language school to newcomers or recent immigrants, in an English-speaking country.

Question 3

Is TEFL hard to pass?

Accepted Answer

With the necessary money, getting qualified as a TEFL teacher is surprisingly easy. One pays between 100 to 300 Euros, downloads one’s course, and completes one’s modules. One has unlimited attempts to pass and when one does, one receives his or her certificate. Passing the TEFL exam is not hard. But there are face-to-face interviews and strict admission requirements which are tough to crack.

Question 4

Can you teach English in China without a College Degree?

Accepted Answer

No, you can’t. In China, although you don’t have to have any teaching experience or a formal teaching credential, you will require a Z visa to teach. Nowadays, the Chinese government is regulating Z visas with stringency. Also, you will need to have a TEFL certificate to teach English in China. Many Chinese provinces require you to have completed a 120-hour TEFL course. Having this is the best way to make yourself competitive for the highest number of positions.

Question 5

Can English be Taught after Completing IELTS?

Accepted Answer

No that is a misnomer. While there is no certificate or license required to teach English with IELTS, most IELTS teaching English positions are at schools which only employ teachers with a minimum of a Celta. More prestigious employers such as the British Council will sometimes require a Delta degree. A TEFL certificate is often accepted in place of the CELTA, while a Masters’s degree in TESOL will do away with the need for Delta.
