Teaching Abroad?
- In non-Western countries you often end up as a paid teacher, in contrast to teaching as a volunteer, at schools where the parents of the children belong to the richer upper class of society or are stationed in that country as expats. People who speak fluent English are often hired to encourage conversation, rather than to teach grammar. Basic knowledge of English grammar is a big advantage when students come to you with strange questions. There are many non-western countries where you can teach English, even if English is not your native language. In order to guarantee the quality of education, a certificate or (TEFL) diploma is increasingly requested.
What is a TEFL Course for Teaching English abroad as a Foreign Language?
- TEFL: The course is, of course, entirely in English, and is made up of various modules aimed at developing didactic skills and the methodology of teaching the English language to non-native speakers. With the globally recognized TEFL diploma, you demonstrate the essential skills for an English teacher. Internationally, the demand for English teachers is increasing and with a TEFL course you significantly increase your chances of a paid teaching job!
What is is the difference between TEFL, TESOL, CELTA and TESL?
- In practice, the difference is relatively small. TEFL stands for Teaching English as a Foreign Language, TESOL stands for Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages, CELTA stands for Certificate of English Language Teaching to Adults, and TESL stands for Teaching English as a Second Language.
- In many countries in the world a TEFL certificate is requested (this can be TEFL, TESOL or CELTA).
- In some countries, for example in Southern Europe, a practical course (TESOL/CELTA) is requested. This is an intensive 4 week adult teaching course and is specifically for those truly pursuing a career in TEFL. You can take this course through TEFL in Spain.
