nice to know, you gave a very complete overview of my target course. thank you so much for taking time to tell us about it in detail. greetings from Argentina and please wish me luck. hehe
Hi! I’m an ESL teacher and decided to get a TEFL qualification whilst in isolation. Trying to stay positive and looking forward to get my certificate by the end I hope haha ☺️
It's a great idea to use your isolation for something productive! I hope it goes well 😊
Katie Ruby Awhhh thank you! ☺️
Hi! I wanted to do this while in isolation. do you know what we do instead of the classroom section? Or is it all entirely online?
Aiysha Younis Hey! I’m doing the 150 hours and it’s all online and through tefl.org it’s also 50% off. Good luck with the course!
I have just passed my tefl course and have received my certificate. Thank you for all your advice 🤗
This was very informative for anyone searching for motivation to take on the course. Thank you very much !
This was very helpful thank you so much for this video. I feel so much better.
Great job,very informative and im very inclined to do tefl even more
This was super helpful, thank you!
Thanks for sharing.
Found out it really useful
This was really informative. Thank you
I found the grammar quite straight forward : videos and quizzes and done. Methodology is the hardest : you have a limited amount of words for the lessons you have to plan and also you have to come up with so many ideas. The tutors will say to redo it if you worded the thing your way. In methodology I felt like pulling my hair out after listening to the videos taking so much notes and then get failed for not using the teacher lingo in my assignments 🤣🥴😭 anyways yeah it’s an interesting course
The methodology part is definitely the most long winded but I do think the course in general is quite straight forward 😊
This was so helpful thank you!
Hi Katie, thanks for sharing this video, I am looking to be doing the slightly longer course starting in the next month or so and the information you have provided in both your videos about this TEFL course have been very handy! As you mentioned , there are scarce video's actually explaining what the course involves and you explain this perfectly... Thank you! I notice too you have uploaded a video about your creative writing degree course, Is this in order to gain a degree level qualification to better your TEFL career overseas , or just for your own benefit? I do not have a degree level qualification , but i was hoping my benefit of maturity ( i am in my late 40's ) might stand in stead? at least a little...?? anyway! Great video, and again many thanks!
Thank you for the really helpful video!
Thank you for sharing this video it really helps I'll be starting my course at this same institution so this is greatly appreciated
This video has been very helpful...yes you have helped very much...thank you
Great work - appreciating...
Hi, it's been only 4 days since a friend of mine proposed on me the TEFL program .something i never bumped into. After i check it out , i found out that it 's an online training that will enables you to teach abroad after the obtainment of the certification of course . I felt thrilled but afraid at the same time .according to you as a teacher underwent the TEFL training ; is this program credible and trusted one ? and is it a long-term beneficial ?last but not least, how much percent for a non-native English speaker to get a job in comparison to native speakers ?
pss: the company i'm willing to apply for , newly started .
Hi, excellent video! Do you buy any of the recommended English Grammar books, if so which ones? Cheers Matt
Chris blog channel Redstone FM
Great video, thank you so much for this information, incredibly helpful 🙌🏻
Thank you very much, you're welcome!
Question: Does the individual hours count if you're doing a hybrid course ( a mix of the 120 + Business + Young Learners)? Or does only the total number of hours matter? I'm seeing variations in how much time certain programs spend on each topic and while I think this means they go more in depth, does it matter in terms of the acceptance of the tefl? I want to do this long-term, so I'm planning on digging deeper over time.
Hi katie..During the tefl class, would instructor talk to students privately? And ask questions orally?? Or only should we listen the class and attend the online test?? Laptop must needed for exams??🤒 Answer pls...🤒
Hi Katie. Thanks for the info. I'm an Australian teacher and wondering about EAS/ESL work in London. Have you heard of anyone teaching English to adults, for example migrant families? Kind regards.
hi Katie! I'm a girl from Italy willing to take the TEFL course. May I ask you if you have to take the quizzes exactly after the lessons or if you have some time to study the subject and put your notes together before the quiz? if that's so, how much time you've got before taking the quizzes after the lesson? thank you very much in advance
Hi!!! I'm just getting my course soon, but I'm not a native speaker, do you think is a must for me to have in person classes?
No it's not a must, but you usually have to be a native speaker to get a visa. Based on my experience teaching in Asia Japan or China (possible and people do it, but illegal) are the easiest to do that in, but they still prefer people with a degree and native speaker.
And an in-person TEFL is unlikely to give you an advantage. May help you teach more though...
@@ESLinsider thanks for your reply! So better I try to get a degree in English.
Which TEFL CERTIFICATE provider do you recommend me please?
@@souiritv8355 You can google cheap courses or if you want my advice you can email me.
@@ESLinsider your email please
Hi Katie! I would like to take a TEFL course the 120 hours. Is tablet fine for this course or do i really need a laptop? Thank you!
The actual course will be absolutely fine to do on a tablet but you will need some software like Microsoft Word to write your assignments on.
@@KatieRuby I have a question
Really useful. Due to my health I am looking for something that I can do online and also 1:1, whether we are in the UK or Spain (we travel out there regularly). This could be an option for me (I love teaching and languages in general). Will look into it more.
It's definitely an option for you! Teaching online is great, you can pretty much choose your hours and the pay can be very generous. I do it a lot when my day to day job quietens down!
And how i understand what it means the TEFL: teaching english online for foreigners who doesn't speak english at all or just a bit. i live in the uk and recognize so many people( include my nationalities as well)dont speak or dont have any patient to learn. And they always asking me what does it mean or how to write it down words .... i learn english from many years and I also like the grammar part . that is why was thinking to teach but need to have the skills as well. Which course u have done? there is a lot website and maybe not professional ones.......
Is there a time limit to finish the whole course? Or can you do it over a few months?
For the 120 hour course there is a time limit, I seem to think you get six months to complete it. But if you do need more time you can pay for an extension (either a week, a month or three months.)
I'm going for just a TEFL qualification would anyone be able to recommend countries that would accept that without a degree? Thanks.
Hey I'm in the same position as you! I believe Cambodia does
@@tobybell8296 which provider do you recommend me please to get my TEFL CERTIFICATE please ?
I'm from South America and I would like to take the TEFL? I have to sign up on the page or do I have to check how it works to get the certificate on my own country?
I m a Romanian teacher so I m not an En native speaker. I want to take TEFL classes in order to teach abroad. Is TEFL suitable in my case?
Nice vid :)
Well, I'm now 15 and from the England. I'm at that point where everyone knows what they want to do but I don't know if my decision will be for the best. I'm not sure if it will be a benafit for me to move to another country and hardly know the languag, and I will be moving away from my friends, parents and everything I've known growing up BUT it could be a chance to explore something that I wouldn't usually by doing anything else. At first i wanted to be a dancer but i became more idealistic and thought of doing phsycology or teaching but everyone else sounds either passionate at what they want to do or they're just to goddamn good at getting high scores on tests. And im not either BUUUUUUT when i thoought of teaching english in a foreign country i was like WELLLLLL this could be fun and I've always wanted to live in a different country but i litterly have zero language skills but i could learn right????
Hey Morgan, thought I might be able to help out! depending on which 'teaching English abroad' programme you want to apply for, there will be different requirements, the ones I've seen require a degree but I haven't checked out all of the programmes. If so, you have lots of time to begin learning the language at a basic level :)
I only realised myself that I'd like to teach abroad this year! And this is after I finished my degree and masters in Psychology last year. I also think it would be really good experience, and I'm sure when its time to go, you'll feel a lot more prepared and ready :) Picking a career path is a really difficult decision, my advice would be to use your favourite gcse subjects as a guideline and explore as many career options during this time.
Is it fully online?...I mean, are the last 20 hours also online and you teach an online class?...thank you in advance!
Hey I'm familiar with TOEFL. But may i know what's TEFL is this also a English language testing Exam for international students?
Have you found work abroad as an English teacher after you completed your course? If so, Where did you go? Do you have a bachelors degree? Do you know where you can teach w/o a four year degree as of right now I only know about Cambodia, Germany, Spain, Eastern Europe, Egypt, and Mexico. I know this gives me several countries to choose from but, do you know anywhere else in Latin America where I can Teach? As I would like to start out closer to home.
I really want to go another country to teach I don't mind teaching online some but, I want to also be teach students in person to connect with the locals in those countries.
I went to Poland when I finished my training and I do have a degree. I know most Asian countries prefer a degree but the best thing to do is do some research. I think a fair few places in South America don't always need degrees but I'd just have a look into it!
Germany pay well teacher .about 4000 euros monthly for teachers at the beginning.
@@souiritv8355 4000 euros? That does not sound true at all..
@@Lia-bl6oz yes in private schools
Hi Katie was wondering In your opinion does the 100 hours online section actually take 100 hours? Or are you able to complete it in less time depending on knowledge etc
It didn't take me that long, you can fly through it if you have the time/commitment!
Hi Katie, just wondering if you had any updates since this video. In regards to any occupation you have had since completing the course? Are you glad you did it, is it still the route you want to go down? I'd love to hear from you as I'm setting off on the same journey and would be nice to have someone to correspond with who's already been down this road.
Hey Katie, thanks for sharing your tips. We've been inspired to start our own podcast on teaching #HowToEnglishPod
really helped, but im just so scared to fail.
What's the worst that can happen? Give it a try!
@@KatieRuby Absolutely i will.
If i don’t pass the writing assignment how many chances do i get to fix it?
I really need to take on the TEFL course but iam from Burundi in Africa...how can u be of help?
Hello. I am just interesting because maybe in the future i would like to teach english online for foreigners. But i am not native speakers.( from Hungary). It will be harder for me? Also i just only wanna teach online not in the class. :)
I know some countries prefer a native speaker but I think because you are wanting to do online courses, that will work to your benefit. I'm sure you will be able to find something.
@@KatieRuby thank you .
I'm looking to do a TEFL course because I want to teach online (as I move around a lot) do you think in your experience that tefl teaching online is good pay/ easy job to find/ and able to live off of it. I would ideally need to earn £600 a month through tefl.
I don't actually have any experience teaching online, all the teaching I did was in the classroom. I do know people that do it and I know that the amount of lessons you are promised can vary depending on when kids are off school etc. I'd do a bit of research and see what you can find!
Hi Katie. Did you do a Level 3 or 5 TEFL? I am so confused by the amount of information on the net about TEFL. Also, I have been advised to beware of bogus websites/ courses that are not actually accredited. I actually am an Online English Teacher, and I have a years experience. However, I now need to get my TEFL qualification. Please help...
Mine wasn't a Level as such, just the hours. So I did a 120 hour course, 100 hours online and 20 in classroom. There are a number of decent tefl sites to look into (having done my course through them, I can recommend tefl.org.uk) but the best thing to do is shop around a bit and read lots of reviews.
@@KatieRuby THANK YOU! I appreciate the reply. Keep well.
That shit doesn't matter. "Level 3 or 5" is irrelevant. Employers don't care about it. Also accreditation isn't required and in TEFL accreditation is basically a paid review and there are some FAKE accreditations out there.
Is teaching online a good job ? How do you find online teaching jobs ?
@@ESLinsider I've found it's a minefield out there. I have a degree and was actually looking at the groupon online 120 hours TEFL. Could you get an online teaching job with that?
Hi! What would happen if the instuctur decides not to give me the certificate? Will I have to pay again?
Teaching English as a Foreign Language empowers teachers to teach the English language at various levels. The TEFL accreditation segment is fast growing and has unlimited options. Henry Harvin is one of the trusted institutions that provide the TEFL Course. Their course is designed to ensure that you clear the TEFL Certification exam on your first attempt and is accredited by the American Association of EFL. Visit the website for more details www.henryharvin.com/tefl-certification-course-online
Hi Katie! Did you have an interview to get accepted to take the TEFL course?
Nope! Anyone can do it
Do we need to give any exam at the end of the course..?
Any news about it?
Just a question: how long is the certificate good for?
Thanks!

Hi Katie- really informative video! thanks! I was just wondering how you searched for teaching jobs abroad? Are there any specific online job boards you looked at? TIA!
Thanks Shaun!
Tefl.org, the Tefl Academy website and Dave's ESL cafe all have lots of jobs to look into. English First is another great company too!
@@KatieRuby Thanks for that! :) Just another one- would you recommend going with recruitment companies or did you apply to schools directly?
Thankyou for the informative video, I am looking into tefl courses as would love to teach children online. Do you need to be a qualified teacher or have a degree in english to get any jobs though? I am qualified in Early Years for 12 years but don't have a degree. 😊
You're welcome! You don't need to have an English degree. It does help to get a job if you do have a degree (which can be literally anything!) but it's not compulsory 😊
How many hours should be choose for having TEFL online? What's the difference?
I would recommend 120 hours, a lot of schools/jobs ask for at least 120 hours of work.
I'd say most of the time they don't matter. They definitely don't matter as much as they will tell you. They are the course providers themselves. They are not the officials to teaching abroad. They are just middle man.
Lots of lies and misinformation out there.
"Hours" for online courses are a little industry lie. These aren't real "hours". They mean nothing. From my point of view they just try to look more official like a CELTA course by naming the course with hours since I think CELTA set the standard and named it's course 120 hours because it actually was 120 hours in a class.
Online those are BS. As a test I completed a 120 "hour" course in 8 hours on Groupon.
Do i need a became to study tefl
Hello, I dont have a degree. Will I be able to teach with just that certificate
Yes you will. Some language schools do insist on a degree, usually an English degree, but lots don't and when I say lots I mean loads and loads.
Is it Real or Scam??
Hey katie where are you teaching ?
I'm not teaching at the moment but after I got my certificate, I moved to Poland.
@@KatieRuby
Great. Does 1 have to be a university graduate to land a teaching job?
@@greentomatoes5034 it can help, depending on where you want to teach, but it's not a necessity.
@@KatieRuby
I am interested in Indonesia as my gf is based there.
Can i take TEFL.org as an American ?
Anyone can do it!
