In the current job market and economic crisis, there seem to be fewer jobs everyday. However, one of the few growing fields is international affairs and teaching overseas. Being bilingual and having the ability to teach non-English students the English language is a great skill to have. Not only does it open up a variety of new opportunities, it also provides a person with the skills to take it to the next level. Ever dreamed of going abroad to teach English? With TEFL you can easily receive the skills from a supportive company to make these dreams a reality. Not only is TEFL internationally recognized, they offer a guarantee of purchase. Many people who have used these services have excelled above and beyond and are now making big things happen. How great would it be to join those people making the most of their careers and feeling good about helping others? Now is your chance to take a TEFL course, get certified, and start receiving job offers! Learn more at i-to-i.com

What types of courses are offered?

TELF offers several different types of language courses to help you in your pursuit of teaching at home to non-English speaking students or abroad in another country. Online and weekend courses allow you to create an individual schedule that fits your busy life. Online courses offer an Internationally Accredited Certificate, tutorials, one-on-one teacher help, plus 8,000+ overseas job contacts. Pretty impressive? The support staff that is involved makes this whole process hassle-free so that you can focus on what is most important, sharpening your language and teaching skills. By the end of your courses, you will be able to teach English grammar, vocabulary, reading and writing skills, and listening skills to a wide range of students. The weekend courses are the same idea except you are physically interacting with peers and a teacher. Learn how to teach English abroad in a fun and encouraging learning environment. Nothing could be better. Learn more about course offered

How helpful is TEFL?

TEFL online and weekend courses are so successful and beneficial to your job searching process and learning process that they even give you a three point promise. The first is a satisfaction guarantee. If you are unhappy with your course within seven days of starting you can get all your money back hassle-free. That seems like a pretty good deal considering most colleges and universities only give about half back after a course has started. The second promise is that you will receive a degree that is internationally recognized. This is also a big deal because what is the point of taking a course that holds no credit value in the real world? With TEFL courses you don’t need to worry about that. This means a competitive advantage in the job market and a little something extra for your resume when you are going after that dream job. The last promise is basically a quality assurance promise. So at least you will know that your teachers, either in the classroom or online, have experience in the field and do a great job teaching you. Learn more about TEFL

What certificates are offered?

While taking online and weekend courses are very beneficial to landing a great job overseas, what can make your resume even more impressive is a specialized certificate in your specific area. This gives you the upper hand over someone else when applying for jobs. And we all know how competitive the market can be these days. Certificates include Cultural Awareness in the Classroom, which is becoming more and more important to have, How to Teach Pronunciation, Teaching Large Classes, Teaching with Audio & Video, Teach English to Young Learners, Teaching Business English, Grammar Awareness, and Teaching with Limited Resources (which can be a recurring problem in the education field).
