Does the thought of a career change excite you? Are you stuck in your current job and dreaming of working abroad? Then teaching English as a foreign language may just be for you.
We have just the qualification you need to get started with our TEFL course in Cheltenham at The TEFL Academy. The Combined Level 5 TEFL Course (168 hours) is an internationally recognised TEFL course which is taught in two sections. The first part is held over a weekend at the Jurys Inn Hotel in Cheltenham, and consists of 20 hours of training time. A TEFL trainer with years of experience teaching English as a foreign language will instruct you face-to-face. You’ll then move onto the second part, which is all conducted online and can be completed anywhere you are. You’ll still be fully supported by our team.
Our TEFL trainers will take you through lesson planning, lesson delivery and ideal lesson content over the weekend in Cheltenham. They will also offer you the chance to teach by yourself, which you should definitely make the most of. You will leave this weekend fully aware of what exactly teaching English as a foreign language consists of.
The next part is all based online, and will take 148 hours to complete. You will be able to spread out your study over a period of six months, though most of our students complete it within four to six weeks. The online course content is more theoretical, with a focus on areas such as good grammar and vocabulary.
We are the world's only TEFL course provider that has received official recognition from government regulated awarding bodies both in the US and the U.K. Our course is regulated by Ofqual (UK government) and awarded by Qualifi, a UK government recognised awarding body. Our Level 5 TEFL Course is DEAC-approved as meeting the criteria for Approved Quality Curriculum (AQC) status. The DEAC is a U.S. Department of Education National Accreditor.
At the end of the course, a Level 5 TEFL Certificate (168 hours) will be presented to you. This is a qualification that is accepted around the globe. Furthermore, it is regulated by Ofqual (UK government) and is approved as the same level as the CELTA and Trinity CertTESOL qualifications. Upon receipt of your final mark, you’re all set to begin the TEFL job hunt on our TEFL Jobs Board. We also offer you the opportunity to specialise in your chosen field of teaching English.
