* An Established Leader:  TEFLOnline is one of the best online certification courses available because it is offered by an organization with a long history in language teaching and teacher-training. With over 20 years of experience training students and teachers worldwide, BridgeTEFL is an established leader in the language training industry. Our staff, programs, facilities and network of global contacts are top-notch because language training is our business—and has been for over two decades.

* An Accredited Institution:  Bridge-Linguatec has been accredited and our TEFLOnline and BridgeTEFL programs approved by ACCET (Accrediting Council for Continuing Education & Training), an independent agency recognized by the U.S. Department of Education. This means that our training center and our programs have met the high quality standards as required by ACCET.

In addition, BridgeTEFL is one of only 7 locations in the USA authorized to offer the prestigious Cambridge CELTA (Certificate in English Language Teaching to Adults). Our center in Denver is recognized as an official CILTS (Cambridge Integrated Language Teaching Schemes) center, having passed rigorous evaluation and certification processes ensuring the quality of our facilities, our staff, and our programs.

* Convenience, Affordability & Quality:  Online TEFL courses are known for their convenience and affordability—but what about quality? To create TEFLOnline, we took the core information from our world-class on-site TEFL programs and adapted it to a user-friendly online format.

We even added a series of video tutorials to help you see what you're learning in action. The result is a teacher preparation program that is convenient, affordable, easy-to-follow—and that represents the highest level of online teacher training available.

* Personal & Professional Tutors:  Just because the course is online, doesn't mean you're on your own. All TEFLOnline students are assigned their own personal tutor for the course. TEFLOnline tutors are professionals in the field and have vast experience teaching English as a second language in a variety of contexts. Tutors grade assignments, provide personalized feedback, answer questions and help guide you through the course. And TEFLOnline tutors will always get back to you quickly—within 24 hours on business days, often much sooner.

In addition to your tutor, the TEFLOnline staff at our headquarters in the USA is available to answer any questions and address any concerns you may have.
