Saw this pop up as I’m about to release a similar video on my channel. Glad to see a nice honest video that doesn’t try convince people a $20 course is good. :)
Cheers for this video. Over the past year or two, the conversation seems to have changed from whether one SHOULD have a TESL / TESOL / TEFL, to WHICH institution / certificate one should choose. I get it, so many programs popping up. These videos are necessary. That's for informing new and developing teachers!
Hello! I did my own research on tefl courses. I wanted to do the tefl academy course that you said to do, and it showed up to be not fully accredited. It means that it is not globally recognized? Can you please help? You understand better than I do.
I was literally searching the internet a minute ago about tefl because it's new to me (I do know about celta though), your vid is very helpful. Thank you :)
Thank for sharing these very useful tips on this video, Jaimie. I love the content. I was a former ESL teacher as well in the Philippines and abroad before.
I"m thinking of moving to the PHilippines and looking into teaching as a job possibility. How hard was it for you to get a job there? What program did you get your TEFL from?
@@ESLTeacher365 yeah I m going to follow your all videos I have done masters in English literature from Pakistan and have 1 year teaching experience which TEFL course suits me kindly guide me.
@@nousheenyasir2768 It depends if you want to teach kids, adults or both! CELTA is fantastic for teaching adults, but if you want to teach kids, International TEFL Academy is a fantastic course.
Jamie thanks for your videos. I really appreciate it and it'll help me encourage my self to teach abroad. I hope someday I can teach abroad. God bless you always and stay safe always. Thanks again.🥰
Thank you for this video! I am an American and thinking about the Maximo Nivel school in Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica. I am a native English speaker with a BA and no teaching experience. it is about $1600 at this point, not including airfare and apartment rental for a 4-week course. If I round up to about $5000, just to have a buffer, it seems like a good deal for the whole experience. Living somewhere different, meeting some new people and experiencing something different, after the last couple years, may be nice.
You come across so authentic ! I have a BA degree and I'm currently teaching on cambly (only about a month!). I'm interested in completing a TEFL course but without a practicum ! I'm only planning to teach online. What do you think of TEFL Professional Development Institute (120 hr)... I saw a link for a FREE 120 hr course with them but you have to pay to receive the actual paper Certificate !! This whole area is a bit of a maze 😳
If you are only teaching online, then you don’t typically need to invest in an expensive course. However, a quality course will give you strategies and resources to improve your teaching. I recommend The TEFL Academy Level 3 course if you want to teach online. They have an entire module on online teaching and the course is worth it in my opinion. Free courses are usually just articles you read and quizzes.
TKT is not a course - it’s an exam. It would be most comparable to a 120 hour TEFL. So if you are looking for a high quality qualification from Cambridge you are better off doing a CELTA.
Peace Jamie, thanks for your informative videos. I'm glad you mentioned you have an MA and clearly lots of international teaching experience. I am an ESL teacher in NYC with an MA and TESOL certificate. I want to transition into teaching ESL abroad. I have about 2 yrs of teaching experience in ESL, but I have not taught internationally yet. Which level of TEFL would you recommend??
LOVE this video. I'm majoring in World Language Education and I'm not sure if getting a TEFL certificate before graduating would be enough to teach now since I haven't graduated yet. Would you recommend the level 5 course for me?
It depends on where you want to teach and if you are a native speaker or not. I recommend filling out my survey so I can get more info and email you back!
I'm currently working on getting mine but I am also learning Korean Japanese and Vietnamese and Tagalog at the same time because I recently moved to the Philippines
@@ESLTeacher365 any method I can I believe that any form of imput helps my wife from the Philippines is helping me with Tagalog and the others I am using Rosetta stone and drops and RUclips and the internet and elementary school books
Hi. I'm a non native speaker from Brazil. I have some teaching experience and I'm looking for a certificate to make it easier for me to get an online job either in Brazil or in another country. Do you think I need other certifications such as TOEIC or TOEFL? Is a cheap TEFL certification enough in this case?
TOEIC and TOEFL will prove your English level. You’ll also need at least a 120 hour TEFL certificate to teach online. If you wonky want to work online then the cheaper TEFL should be enough. I have a video coming out soon on teaching online for non-native speakers which will have some extra tips!
Me too. I am brazilian living in USA for 12 years and moving to Portugal. Taught portuguese and English in school for 15 years but I would like to take Tefl course, I just don't know which one
I did not realize that people get both a TEFL and CELTA. I'm being told that having the money and time that I should get the CELTA. I'm 51, have 3 degrees and have done some teaching and substitute teaching.
CELTA is great for teaching adults, but not kids, so just keep that in mind. It also depends on where you want to teach. If you fill out my survey in the description I can better guide you.
Hi, how are you? My question is what tefl course have you taken? I mean the prices you've been explaining the whole video in order to get the certificate.
Thank you so much for all the details you always provide. I have one question if u don’t mind. I am wondering whether Master TEFL 220 hours has level 5 or not. And if it’s internationally accredited or not. Thank you ❤
It looks like that course is a different course than Premier TEFL. I am not familiar with it and only recommend courses where I have personally spoken to the brand to verify them 🙂
Thank you Jamie for this inspiring video .. Now that I watched this insightful comparison, I finally had a soild backgroud to make up my mind and choose CELTA regardless of the hefty price tag
Hi Really happy to see you everytime ,coz you encourage me tomake new advanced ideas specially for my career as an English teacher .. I have a bachelor degree in Translation Eng -Ara Translator and interpreter M.E.D in advancing Teaching (Uopeople ) in progress TESOL Arizona state university Cheap Tefl certificate 10 years Experience in ESL teaching n Syria . I am in Turkey now and I would like to start with online Teaching .. Your advises plz .. Thanks alot my Teacher 😎😎
For non-native speakers the best route for teaching online is starting as a freelancer and finding clients in a specific niche. I’ll have a video coming out soon on a platform you can use to do this!
Jaimie would love for your advice, I just subscribed to your channel. My sister is changing her career and she wants to be able to teach remotely anywhere in the world. She is considering an academy but I don't think really is worth it. Would you be able to provide a consultation with me on how can she start. My sister only has High School Degree.
Excellent Video... You are an Angel... most of these videos are confusing. I am 67 years old and able to go anywhere, after 2022. I do not have a Bachelor's Degree in English... but I am a Licenced Teacher here in the US. Over 4 years of experience with teaching at Colleges also. I would love to teach English in Italy. I did not see Italy on your list (sad). I also Teach Drama for Acting for Stage and Film. I also am a NLP (Neuro Linguistic Program) Hypnotist. Would I be able to teach in Italy with the TEFL online certification? And... I was told I needed to be able to talk Italian if I want to teach in Italy, which I think is smart to know both languages. Thank you for your help.
Teaching in Italy can be tricky unless you have EU working rights. The easiest way to get around this is to go on a student visa and teach English part-time on the side. With a US teaching license you may be able to find a job at an international school in Italy teaching in your subject area. You can apply for these jobs through recruitment agencies like Search Associates or International School Services. However, these schools may have age restrictions due to the visa.
@@ESLTeacher365 Age restriction? Due to the Visa? I'm not sure what you're saying (LOL) I'm too old, since I'm 67 years old? Yes? No? Thank you so much for taking the time to explain all of this... WOW... I am so impressed how knowledgeable you are about all of this. I'm still thinking about how you went 6 years without a TEFL... I would love to just go over there and be able to teach English and/or Acting/Drama... but I'm too scared to try that. I Fear you're right that the schools would need me to do the TEFL which I totally respect that in this day and time. So... what you're saying is: (Try) the Student Visa ... How do I do that? Thank you so much for all this valuable information. I can't wait to find your video on how to pack or what to pack to go abroad... I didn't realize there is so much to all of this. Thank you again and God Bless.
@@ESLTeacher365 I will do as much research on my own fist (so I don't bother you too much). I know you are very very busy woman. But it is good to know that I can contact you when I'm stuck. Thank you... I know I can re-open my Acting Studio & NLP/Hypnosis office again and make a lot more money than what I'll make teaching abroad, but here in a few weeks... I am moving back to Albuquerque, New Mexico... and for once in my life (Retired) I do not have anything or anyone to tie me down (sad)... I don't have a house, because I have been taking care of my mother for the last 7 years. I need to buy a new car... new furniture etc... in other words... I'm FREE to Wander. This would be the only good time to Teach abroad. Then I could come back to New Mexico and set down roots again later. Once I do settle down, I wouldn't have the money to travel. Because I know teaching abroad doesn't pay very much. LOL. The money isn't the reason I'm doing this. I love teaching. Thank you again for all your help.
Hi Jamie! My name is Lucia. I sent an email but I would like to say that I loved your channel, it's very helpful. I'm searching about a not too expensive and trustworthy course. I woul love a feed back from you
Hey, thanks for the video. I'm doing a TEFL from International Open Academy right now. It's 120 hours, all online and accredited. I have a Bachelor's degree. My main goal is to teach English online for 6 months to a year. A job like VIPKID would have been great but oh well. I want something like that. Do you think this certificate is good enough to land a job like that ?
It’s an interesting concept because you pay until you complete it. The faster you complete it, the cheaper it is. I haven’t personally done it yet, but may review it for a future video 🙂
@@ESLTeacher365 yeah, and there's financial aid available as well, you'd still need to pay 50 dollars to get the certificate mailed to u, but it's cool, peer reviewed assignments and micro lessons where u have to submit recorded vids of u teaching... pretty cool
I am Spanish. I hace a BA in English philology and Master's in Teaching but to teach abroad are not válido I need Tefl or Celta, I was suggested to do celta since I have already experiencia ,but is like having two master's in Teaching
CELTA is more equivalent to a bachelor’s than a master’s. DELTA is the master’s equivalent. It really depends on where you want to teach. Which countries are you interested in? For non-native speakers it’s always best to be as qualified as you can since some countries, schools and employers prefer native speakers (which is unfortunate and discrimination 😔)
Hi Jamie, Thank you for this video!! Can you please help me? I have master's level education in the sciences and have some teaching experience with children and university students. I've debated going with ITA, but after seeing your video maybe I dont need something so exhaustive. What I'd really prefer is a program that offers other bonuses like visa and in country support (this would be my first time out of the country!). I would deeply appreciate your thoughts on this.
How would you suggest to check the accreditation of particular TEFL course provider? For instance, I would like to teach English in Austria or another European country, how can I be sure that particular certificate will be recognized in this country?
Hello fabulous teacher..I am a teacher of English from Iraq and I am interested in taking TESOL or CELTA in person.what country do you recommend for me?
@@English-4-Iraq All CELTA trainers have to go through training. It doesn't make a difference if they are a native speaker or not as it's a teaching training course and not an English course.
Hello, this video is very informative and I really appreciate it. I personally will be graduating in 2025 with a degree in modern languages (Japanese) and I want to apply for the jet program to be an assistant teacher in Japan. I know jet does not require a certificate or experience in teaching but it is recommended. I have no prior experience teaching at all but I’ll have a bachelors soon so I’m not sure weather or not If I should go for the middle cost of certification or the more expensive one based on my situation. I would be so grateful if you could give me some insight, I am hoping to get a certification before I apply for jet in fall 2025 while also going to full time university (so I need a more flexible certification process if possible if you know of one).
Can i teach english as a non-native speaker if i know almost no grammar? I'm pretty fluent in speech and writing, but it's all instinctual and subconscious. When someone asks me why is something the way it is in english all i can say is "it's just is". Would these courses help me bridge that gap or are they more for people who just need to brush up on their already existing understanding of the language?
You absolutely need to know grammar to teach English. If you do a TEFL course it won’t teach you the grammar, it will teach you how to teach grammar. I recommend brushing up on English grammar first. There are lots of helpful books!
Hi, USA native here with a B.A.! I’ve earned a TESOL through VIPKid and worked as an online English Teacher with them for about 3 years. Is there anything else I need to continue working in this field of online teaching?
You can always get a level 5 TEFL course or do add-on courses like Business English. You can check out the description box for courses I recommend. Are you considering working for Outschool or freelancing?
Hi i am glad that you posted such wonderful video. I am in Saudi Arabia i have 3 years of college working experience as Assistant professor and now i want becom a teacher what course suits me to get the job sister.
Hello! Thank you for this informative video. Can I ask which of these 2 organisation's degree holds more value for online teaching? 1) World Tesol Academy or 2) Internation Open Academy
@@ESLTeacher365 thank you. Sorry to ask, if I want to teach in Europe to adults having no experience, do you recommend the Celta anyway? (I am not a native speaker!)
I haven’t heard very good things about i to i. Some people report having to redo assignments over and over again. The certs I recommend are listed in this video description.
Yes, CELTA is one of the most expensive courses. However, they don't offer job search assistance. So I personally recommend ITA over CELTA if you are looking for job search help.
Hi there! I have a Bachelors Degree but in something completely unrelated to education or English. No teaching experience. I am, however, a native speaker. Would you recommend a 120 hour tefl course or a celta? I was really leaning towards the celta, but the price point is what has me hesitant. I'm thinking of teaching online but would like to have the option of teaching abroad as well. Thank you
If you don’t have teaching experience I recommend CELTA or International TEFL Academy (link is in the description). The difference is that CELTA is more for teaching adults and ITA offers lifetime job search assistance but CELTA does not. I recommend starting with ITA and if you feel like you want more later on, you can always do a CELTA.
Hi Jaimie . I have completed my Mba and passed IELTS test with the hope of doing a course abroad.But unfortunately it did not work out. So I have been training students for IELTS for the past 4 years. As a change of mind, I’m looking for a english course and ended up watching your vedio and it was worthy. Can you suggest whther TESOL OR TESL is best for teaching in English speaking countries??
Hi! TEFL/TESOL/TESL are all the same thing. Different countries use different acronyms. I am currently teaching in Australia using my CELTA certificate. This is the Cambridge brand TEFL certificate. Each country has different regulations to get a visa to teach there so I recommend choosing your top 5 countries and researching the requirements. Jobs can be competitive in English speaking countries so it’s helpful to have an actual teaching certificate as well as a TEFL. I hope this helps!
Hello! I have a teaching license with a clde endorsement (cultural/linguistic diverse education) does this have any standing for teaching english abroad or would you recommend getting certified in one of the options you mentioned?
I still recommend getting a TEFL if you want to teach ESL because you’ll want to learn the methods to teaching English as a Foreign Language. For interviews you may be asked to teach a demo lesson, so it’s best to be well prepared.
Hi, Jamie! I have 8 years of experience teaching or training adults in English Language Training; I have also worked as a Curriculum Developer (ELT) and Content Writer. In your knowledge or understanding, how is Trinity CertTESOL? I don't want to teach young learners at all. Is TEFL mostly about teaching young learners? Will it be worth every penny if I go for Trinity CertTESOL? Please guide if you can!
CertTESOL is the Trinity brand TEFL. I haven’t taken it but I did take CELTA and they are similar. They are very good courses for teaching adults. It depends on how you want to use it. It’s usually for new teachers or a top up for experienced teachers. There’s also more advanced courses like DELTA.
no teaching degree, no certficate but has a teaching experience through seminars inside our church and outreach. and want to learn and teach abroad. what's good tesol/tefl level for me? thank you for answering this message. God bless
It depends on if you have a bachelor’s degree, your budget for the course, your nationality and where you want to teach. Please fill out my survey and I will email you back with some recommendations!
I'm a non-native speaker and I'm Asian(30 years old )with no teaching experience. I've got a BA degree in geography.i would like to teach english abroad which one do you recommend?
Hi, thank you. This video has been very informative. wanted to ask your recommendation on the TEFL which is accepted by the Government of Canada. I am actually planning to move to Canada for work. I have a 10 years of teaching experience, so I think the MID-LEVEL TEFL would do. I am looking to do mostly online teaching. What would be your recommendation specially on the one the Canadian employer would accept. Thank you.
Do you already have a visa to work there? It will depend where you are teaching - private academies, universities, etc. In general, you’ll want a quality TEFL with teaching practice like CELTA or CertTESOL.
@@ESLTeacher365 The visa is in the process, we have applied for the Canadian PR. I was thinking to apply for online teaching. I am ready to work both in private academies, universities, and online as long as the TEFL certification allows. Can you suggest any online site to acquire the appropriate certification please?
It depends on your nationality, if you have a degree, where you want to teach and if you want to each adults or not. CELTA is great for the EU and Middle East for teaching adults. However, no job support is given. If you want a comparable course with job search assistance, I recommend ITA: bit.ly/ITATEFL
@@tytraulich4987 It's possible to teach 1:1 in private academies, in-company business classes or on a freelancer visa, but I would say that most people do classroom teaching first to gain experience and then move to private tutoring.
@@ESLTeacher365 we often use zoom to take classes, the material is Oxford discover ,wonders ,think ,reach amend so on,but anyway ,the main goal is for improving our oral English!Many thanks ,
So level 5 courses for those with zero teaching experience and a bachelors degree, correct? I have 2 under grad degrees and I’ve been researching changing careers and giving back to others such a teaching English. I’ve been eyeing a level 5 course for quite sometime
Yes I recommend level 5 courses if you don’t have previous teaching experience because they go more in-depth than the basic 120-hour courses. It’s best to do a course that has a teaching practicum so you can get feedback on your teaching.
Your link that I selected sends me to premier TEFL, obviously this is an affiliate link. It just happens to be one of the ones that I have open on my laptop (right now I'm on my mobile phone) seems legitimate, though I'll need to do my research first to avoid a scam.
Oh, I'm from England and live abroad. My spellings are different from US spellings, example colour vs color/specialised vs specialised etc. I cannot change my spellings! Hopefully that shouldn't be a problem with whichever course I zone in on.
Yes, it is an affiliate link, as disclosed in the video description. I partner with Premier TEFL and have looked at the TEFL certificate myself to make sure I am recommending a great certificate for my viewers.
@@stefanmansukhani8797 This is not a problem. As long as you are consisten, you won't have any issues. I am American but living in Australia so I often use British spelling as well.
Hello there ! What would you recommend for someone who has teaching experience and only has a TKT and no college degree, to take as a course ?

Hello Jamie Just find your channel and subscribed;-) My husband is native English speaker and he teach business&economics here in Dubai.. This is his second year so he is still NQT till next year He is 50 years old I’m wondering is it possible to teach English online if you are a bit older? He has BA in Hospitality and Tourism Master in Human Resources and PGCE in Business We are planing to perhaps live in my country in the future ( Croatia) and wonder if he can make a bit of extra money online even if he will be over 50 Please be honest ha ha Regards from us from Dubai ♥️
Yes, it’s possible. However, if he teaches business and econ, it would be best to start his own freelance online teaching business to teach business English since most companies pay poorly these days.
@@ESLTeacher365 great! Thanks for your fast answer Will “ investigate” this option too Perhaps some other youTube videos on this subject:-) We have house in Croatia so no rent We don’t need big income Just a bit to cover some bills ;-) Kind regards from both of us from Dubai Take care ♥️
Hi . Your videos are very useful. I have completed survey by the link you have mentioned ,still no response. Currently I’m doing my TEFL/TESOL course with specialisation in business english. But I’m not a native English speaker (INDIAN), so could you please help me out knowing where a non native English speaker can easily find a job as TEFL teacher. Basically I prefer to work in a European country. Thank you😊 keep going❤️
I have not personally tested it out yet. I only recommend courses that I have tested so I can verify if they are legit! I will put it on my list of courses to try.
I'm from India and I am a graduate with a major in English and not so long ago, I completed my Education degree (B.ed). Moreover, I'm planning to teach abroad and thus, I'm searching to do TEFL either online from other countries or from Delhi, India itself. Unfortunately, I'm not able to find a good institute for the TEFL certificate course and it is quite exhausting. Hopefully, you might suggest a prominent and trustable institute for the TEFL course online outside India.
I only recommend certificates where I have personally spoken with the company about their certificate. I haven’t spoken with TEFL International. You can find my recommendations in the description box.
DELTA is above CELTA. It’s usually if you want to be a director of studies (DOS) or a teacher trainer. You need at least 1 year of teaching experience before you do DELTA.
What if you just want to teach English in your own English speaking country? All these videos on RUclips seem to focus on teaching English abroad, but are there jobs in English speaking countries?
Each country is different, but typically if you want to teach English or ESL in your own country, you can become a certified teacher and get a teaching license and teach in public or private schools or get a TEFL and teach ESL classes at language schools. I teach in Australia at a language school and have students from all over the world.
It depends on the country. I have a video about teaching abroad without a degree. Each country has different visa restrictions and even some visas or requirements of specific schools will be more demanding than others.

What about the TKT Cambridge certificate? Is it worth?
TKT is not a course - it’s an exam. It would be most comparable to a 120 hour TEFL. So if you are looking for a high quality qualification from Cambridge you are better off doing a CELTA.
Another fantastic video, Jamie!!!
Thanks Corey 🥰
Having this certificate I believe it is important when I become a training and development instructor.
This certificate is specifically for people who want to teach English as a second or foreign language.

Hi. I'm a non native speaker from Brazil. I have some teaching experience and I'm looking for a certificate to make it easier for me to get an online job either in Brazil or in another country. Do you think I need other certifications such as TOEIC or TOEFL? Is a cheap TEFL certification enough in this case?
TOEIC and TOEFL will prove your English level. You’ll also need at least a 120 hour TEFL certificate to teach online. If you wonky want to work online then the cheaper TEFL should be enough. I have a video coming out soon on teaching online for non-native speakers which will have some extra tips!
Me too. I am brazilian living in USA for 12 years and moving to Portugal. Taught portuguese and English in school for 15 years but I would like to take Tefl course, I just don't know which one
I did not realize that people get both a TEFL and CELTA. I'm being told that having the money and time that I should get the CELTA. I'm 51, have 3 degrees and have done some teaching and substitute teaching.
CELTA is great for teaching adults, but not kids, so just keep that in mind. It also depends on where you want to teach. If you fill out my survey in the description I can better guide you.
Hi, how are you? My question is what tefl course have you taken? I mean the prices you've been explaining the whole video in order to get the certificate.
I personally did a CELTA.
❤Greetings from Egypt❤
Ahlan!
Thank you so much for all the details you always provide. I have one question if u don’t mind. I am wondering whether Master TEFL 220 hours has level 5 or not. And if it’s internationally accredited or not. Thank you ❤
It looks like that course is a different course than Premier TEFL. I am not familiar with it and only recommend courses where I have personally spoken to the brand to verify them 🙂
Jamie ji...its very helpful information.👏🙌🤝💐❤😊
Thank you Jamie for this inspiring video .. Now that I watched this insightful comparison, I finally had a soild backgroud to make up my mind and choose CELTA regardless of the hefty price tag
Will you do the course in-person or online?
In- Person in Cairo .. BTW, where did you work in Cairo? @@ESLTeacher365 😅
Do employers accept online CELTA courses? They're a bit more expensive than the face to face courses.

Really happy to see you everytime ,coz you encourage me tomake new advanced ideas specially for my career as an English teacher ..
I have a bachelor degree in Translation Eng -Ara Translator and interpreter

I am in Turkey now and I would like to start with online Teaching ..
Your advises plz ..
Thanks alot my Teacher 😎😎
For non-native speakers the best route for teaching online is starting as a freelancer and finding clients in a specific niche. I’ll have a video coming out soon on a platform you can use to do this!
Jaimie would love for your advice, I just subscribed to your channel. My sister is changing her career and she wants to be able to teach remotely anywhere in the world. She is considering an academy but I don't think really is worth it. Would you be able to provide a consultation with me on how can she start. My sister only has High School Degree.
Hi! I offer teach abroad coaching. You can email me at the address in the description to book a session.
Excellent Video...
You are an Angel... most of these videos are confusing.
I am 67 years old and able to go anywhere, after 2022.
I do not have a Bachelor's Degree in English... but I am a Licenced Teacher here in the US. Over 4 years of experience with teaching at Colleges also.
I would love to teach English in Italy. I did not see Italy on your list (sad).
I also Teach Drama for Acting for Stage and Film.
I also am a NLP (Neuro Linguistic Program) Hypnotist.
Would I be able to teach in Italy with the TEFL online certification?
And... I was told I needed to be able to talk Italian if I want to teach in Italy, which I think is smart to know both languages.
Thank you for your help.
Teaching in Italy can be tricky unless you have EU working rights. The easiest way to get around this is to go on a student visa and teach English part-time on the side. With a US teaching license you may be able to find a job at an international school in Italy teaching in your subject area. You can apply for these jobs through recruitment agencies like Search Associates or International School Services. However, these schools may have age restrictions due to the visa.
@@ESLTeacher365
Age restriction? Due to the Visa? I'm not sure what you're saying (LOL) I'm too old, since I'm 67 years old? Yes? No?
Thank you so much for taking the time to explain all of this... WOW... I am so impressed how knowledgeable you are about all of this.
I'm still thinking about how you went 6 years without a TEFL... I would love to just go over there and be able to teach English and/or Acting/Drama... but I'm too scared to try that.
I Fear you're right that the schools would need me to do the TEFL which I totally respect that in this day and time.
So... what you're saying is:
(Try) the Student Visa ... How do I do that?
Thank you so much for all this valuable information.
I can't wait to find your video on how to pack or what to pack to go abroad...
I didn't realize there is so much to all of this.
Thank you again and God Bless.
You’re welcome 😊 You can always email me at the email address in the description and I can provide more info.

I will do as much research on my own fist (so I don't bother you too much). I know you are very very busy woman.
But it is good to know that I can contact you when I'm stuck.
Thank you...
I know I can re-open my Acting Studio & NLP/Hypnosis office again and make a lot more money than what I'll make teaching abroad, but here in a few weeks... I am moving back to Albuquerque, New Mexico... and for once in my life (Retired) I do not have anything or anyone to tie me down (sad)...
I don't have a house, because I have been taking care of my mother for the last 7 years.
I need to buy a new car... new furniture etc... in other words... I'm FREE to Wander.
This would be the only good time to Teach abroad. Then I could come back to New Mexico and set down roots again later. Once I do settle down, I wouldn't have the money to travel. Because I know teaching abroad doesn't pay very much.
LOL. The money isn't the reason I'm doing this.
I love teaching.
Thank you again for all your help.
Hi Jamie! My name is Lucia. I sent an email but I would like to say that I loved your channel, it's very helpful. I'm searching about a not too expensive and trustworthy course. I woul love a feed back from you

Hey, thanks for the video. I'm doing a TEFL from International Open Academy right now. It's 120 hours, all online and accredited. I have a Bachelor's degree. My main goal is to teach English online for 6 months to a year. A job like VIPKID would have been great but oh well. I want something like that. Do you think this certificate is good enough to land a job like that ?
Yes, most online companies accept the TESOL/TEFL from IOA for teaching online.
@@ESLTeacher365 kool thanks !!
That sounds Interesting. I'm looking for a career change, and I'm a language buff. I would of course need to study English grammar on a deeper level.
@@ESLTeacher365 is it still okay if I decided to teach abroad and not online? I have bachelor's degree too.
@@anneacob1384 I do not recommend IOA for teaching abroad.
Hello Jamie, what do you think of the Arizona State TESOL Coursera course? in which tier would you put it?
It’s an interesting concept because you pay until you complete it. The faster you complete it, the cheaper it is. I haven’t personally done it yet, but may review it for a future video 🙂
@@ESLTeacher365 yeah, and there's financial aid available as well, you'd still need to pay 50 dollars to get the certificate mailed to u, but it's cool, peer reviewed assignments and micro lessons where u have to submit recorded vids of u teaching... pretty cool
I'm so glad I came across your video! I hope it's okay if I send you an email regarding my inquiries. Hope to hear from you soon! Thank you
Yes! I will write back soon ☺️
I am Spanish. I hace a BA in English philology and Master's in Teaching but to teach abroad are not válido I need Tefl or Celta, I was suggested to do celta since I have already experiencia ,but is like having two master's in Teaching
CELTA is more equivalent to a bachelor’s than a master’s. DELTA is the master’s equivalent. It really depends on where you want to teach. Which countries are you interested in? For non-native speakers it’s always best to be as qualified as you can since some countries, schools and employers prefer native speakers (which is unfortunate and discrimination 😔)
@@ESLTeacher365 I was Teaching in malta with My master's degree but My boss recommended me celta,but is too expensive
Hi dear, thanks for the video. I need to know if you have taught in the UAE...thanks
Not yet 😊
Hi Jamie,
Thank you for this video!! Can you please help me? I have master's level education in the sciences and have some teaching experience with children and university students. I've debated going with ITA, but after seeing your video maybe I dont need something so exhaustive. What I'd really prefer is a program that offers other bonuses like visa and in country support (this would be my first time out of the country!). I would deeply appreciate your thoughts on this.
Please fill out my survey in the description so I can better guide you 🙂
How would you suggest to check the accreditation of particular TEFL course provider? For instance, I would like to teach English in Austria or another European country, how can I be sure that particular certificate will be recognized in this country?
I recommend reaching out to schools there and asking them what qualifications they are looking for.
Very informative
Hello fabulous teacher..I am a teacher of English from Iraq and I am interested in taking TESOL or CELTA in person.what country do you recommend for me?
As in which country to take it in?
@@ESLTeacher365 can I take it in Turkey?? On condition, I want a native English speaker to train me . 🤔
@@English-4-Iraq All CELTA trainers have to go through training. It doesn't make a difference if they are a native speaker or not as it's a teaching training course and not an English course.
Hello, this video is very informative and I really appreciate it. I personally will be graduating in 2025 with a degree in modern languages (Japanese) and I want to apply for the jet program to be an assistant teacher in Japan. I know jet does not require a certificate or experience in teaching but it is recommended. I have no prior experience teaching at all but I’ll have a bachelors soon so I’m not sure weather or not If I should go for the middle cost of certification or the more expensive one based on my situation. I would be so grateful if you could give me some insight, I am hoping to get a certification before I apply for jet in fall 2025 while also going to full time university (so I need a more flexible certification process if possible if you know of one).
I recommend filling out my survey or sending me an email (linked in the video description) so I can personally guide you 🙂
Can i teach english as a non-native speaker if i know almost no grammar? I'm pretty fluent in speech and writing, but it's all instinctual and subconscious. When someone asks me why is something the way it is in english all i can say is "it's just is". Would these courses help me bridge that gap or are they more for people who just need to brush up on their already existing understanding of the language?
You absolutely need to know grammar to teach English. If you do a TEFL course it won’t teach you the grammar, it will teach you how to teach grammar. I recommend brushing up on English grammar first. There are lots of helpful books!
Hi, USA native here with a B.A.! I’ve earned a TESOL through VIPKid and worked as an online English Teacher with them for about 3 years. Is there anything else I need to continue working in this field of online teaching?

@@rossellaleonardi2908 Yes, I recommend CELTA because it is preferred in many European countries.
@@ESLTeacher365 thank you 🙏
Which one should I take? I am still unsure. I have never worked as a teacher before, and this going to be my first experience.
International TEFL Academy or CELTA 🙂
Hi Jamie kindly would like to ask you that would you recommend an I to I TEFL Level 5 programme
I haven’t heard very good things about i to i. Some people report having to redo assignments over and over again. The certs I recommend are listed in this video description.
CELTA would be considered an expensive course? I'm from Argentina, Thanks!
Yes, CELTA is one of the most expensive courses. However, they don't offer job search assistance. So I personally recommend ITA over CELTA if you are looking for job search help.
Can you recommend any recruiting organizations that help with job placement? I'm a 25 year old male looking for my first TESOL job
It depends on where you want to teach and your qualifications. Fill out my survey and I’ll see if I can help.
Hi there! I have a Bachelors Degree but in something completely unrelated to education or English. No teaching experience. I am, however, a native speaker. Would you recommend a 120 hour tefl course or a celta? I was really leaning towards the celta, but the price point is what has me hesitant. I'm thinking of teaching online but would like to have the option of teaching abroad as well. Thank you
If you don’t have teaching experience I recommend CELTA or International TEFL Academy (link is in the description). The difference is that CELTA is more for teaching adults and ITA offers lifetime job search assistance but CELTA does not. I recommend starting with ITA and if you feel like you want more later on, you can always do a CELTA.
Hi Jaimie . I have completed my Mba and passed IELTS test with the hope of doing a course abroad.But unfortunately it did not work out. So I have been training students for IELTS for the past 4 years. As a change of mind, I’m looking for a english course and ended up watching your vedio and it was worthy. Can you suggest whther TESOL OR TESL is best for teaching in English speaking countries??
Hi! TEFL/TESOL/TESL are all the same thing. Different countries use different acronyms. I am currently teaching in Australia using my CELTA certificate. This is the Cambridge brand TEFL certificate. Each country has different regulations to get a visa to teach there so I recommend choosing your top 5 countries and researching the requirements. Jobs can be competitive in English speaking countries so it’s helpful to have an actual teaching certificate as well as a TEFL. I hope this helps!
I need the mid level. My goal is the Peace Corps. Need an accredited mid level course, what do you suggest?
Check the description box for my recommendations 🙂
Hello! I have a teaching license with a clde endorsement (cultural/linguistic diverse education) does this have any standing for teaching english abroad or would you recommend getting certified in one of the options you mentioned?
I still recommend getting a TEFL if you want to teach ESL because you’ll want to learn the methods to teaching English as a Foreign Language. For interviews you may be asked to teach a demo lesson, so it’s best to be well prepared.
Hi, Jamie!
I have 8 years of experience teaching or training adults in English Language Training; I have also worked as a Curriculum Developer (ELT) and Content Writer.
In your knowledge or understanding, how is Trinity CertTESOL? I don't want to teach young learners at all. Is TEFL mostly about teaching young learners?
Will it be worth every penny if I go for Trinity CertTESOL?
Please guide if you can!
CertTESOL is the Trinity brand TEFL. I haven’t taken it but I did take CELTA and they are similar. They are very good courses for teaching adults. It depends on how you want to use it. It’s usually for new teachers or a top up for experienced teachers. There’s also more advanced courses like DELTA.
Many thanks for answering! Yes, I am aware of DELTA and DipTESOL as well.
Great video! Thank you! Will send you email.
Hello! Could you please tell me which tefl course you did ?
I did CELTA but have since taken many others to test them for my channel.
Got it now.
no teaching degree, no certficate but has a teaching experience through seminars inside our church and outreach. and want to learn and teach abroad. what's good tesol/tefl level for me? thank you for answering this message. God bless

Hi, thank you. This video has been very informative.
wanted to ask your recommendation on the TEFL which is accepted by the Government of Canada.
I am actually planning to move to Canada for work. I have a 10 years of teaching experience, so I think the MID-LEVEL TEFL would do. I am looking to do mostly online teaching. What would be your recommendation specially on the one the Canadian employer would accept. Thank you.
Do you already have a visa to work there? It will depend where you are teaching - private academies, universities, etc. In general, you’ll want a quality TEFL with teaching practice like CELTA or CertTESOL.
@@ESLTeacher365 The visa is in the process, we have applied for the Canadian PR. I was thinking to apply for online teaching. I am ready to work both in private academies, universities, and online as long as the TEFL certification allows.
Can you suggest any online site to acquire the appropriate certification please?
@@joshADV That's great that you have a visa! I have some online TEFLs linked in the description box that you can check out.
I’m currently teaching in my country. I have a degree bt I can’t decide whether to get a Celta or a Tesol
It depends on your nationality, if you have a degree, where you want to teach and if you want to each adults or not. CELTA is great for the EU and Middle East for teaching adults. However, no job support is given. If you want a comparable course with job search assistance, I recommend ITA: bit.ly/ITATEFL

So level 5 courses for those with zero teaching experience and a bachelors degree, correct? I have 2 under grad degrees and I’ve been researching changing careers and giving back to others such a teaching English. I’ve been eyeing a level 5 course for quite sometime
Yes I recommend level 5 courses if you don’t have previous teaching experience because they go more in-depth than the basic 120-hour courses. It’s best to do a course that has a teaching practicum so you can get feedback on your teaching.
I have only one hour to get registered.
I have an AS and an AA. Lots of CEU’s but no Bachelors. I’ve Tutored but no real Teaching experience. I feel like an InbeTWEENer.
We all start somewhere so that’s great!
Did I miss something? I thought there were going to be links for some courses?
There are links in the description box 🙂
Your link that I selected sends me to premier TEFL, obviously this is an affiliate link. It just happens to be one of the ones that I have open on my laptop (right now I'm on my mobile phone) seems legitimate, though I'll need to do my research first to avoid a scam.
Oh, I'm from England and live abroad. My spellings are different from US spellings, example colour vs color/specialised vs specialised etc. I cannot change my spellings! Hopefully that shouldn't be a problem with whichever course I zone in on.

My husband is native English speaker and he teach business&economics here in Dubai.. This is his second year so he is still NQT till next year

Master in Human Resources and PGCE in Business
We are planing to perhaps live in my country in the future ( Croatia) and wonder if he can make a bit of extra money online even if he will be over 50
Please be honest ha ha

Do you recommend TEFL Institute of Ireland? Is their 120 hour TEFL Certificate course good?
I have not personally tested it out yet. I only recommend courses that I have tested so I can verify if they are legit! I will put it on my list of courses to try.

What about ed credentials that have an ELL, english language learner authorization?
It depends on the country and school. Often you won’t need an additional certificate if you have a license in ELL.
You typically don’t need a TEFL on top of that.
Hi what do you think about TELF International? Are there any other schools that are better?
I only recommend certificates where I have personally spoken with the company about their certificate. I haven’t spoken with TEFL International. You can find my recommendations in the description box.
Is DELTA considered a good certification for teaching English as a Foreign Language?
DELTA is above CELTA. It’s usually if you want to be a director of studies (DOS) or a teacher trainer. You need at least 1 year of teaching experience before you do DELTA.
What if you just want to teach English in your own English speaking country? All these videos on RUclips seem to focus on teaching English abroad, but are there jobs in English speaking countries?
Each country is different, but typically if you want to teach English or ESL in your own country, you can become a certified teacher and get a teaching license and teach in public or private schools or get a TEFL and teach ESL classes at language schools. I teach in Australia at a language school and have students from all over the world.
Hello thanks for the video. Do you need to have a university degree to find a job?
It depends on the country. I have a video about teaching abroad without a degree. Each country has different visa restrictions and even some visas or requirements of specific schools will be more demanding than others.
