TEFL Certificate
September 12th, 2007
I have always had a firm belief that a TEFL Certificate is paramount to effectively teaching kids and adults. Just by studying a Bachelor of Education is not going to fully prepare you for life abroad as an English teacher. By the same token, just by attaining a TEFL Certificate, TESL, TESOL or Cambridge, also isn’t going to prepare you to be a good English teacher. One needs to look at the whole picture and how each course compliments each other.
Each year we are seeing more and more ESL jobs on offer. The Asian world is crying out for qualified ESL teachers, yet there still is a massive shortfall in supply. I too was an English teacher before, but have since moved on. My TEFL certificate did help me a lot in providing quality lessons to my students.
