Classroom & Online TEFL Teacher Training Courses:

Weekend TEFL Courses (20 hours)
With the The TEFL Org Weekend TEFL Course you will be able to find paid or voluntary English teaching jobs abroad, like countless others before you.

TEFL Org weekend courses are designed with the first time teacher in mind. The course includes all the principles of English Language Teaching (ELT) and squeezes them into one fun weekend.

The courses are run at locations throughout the UK, Ireland and Spain so it's easy to find a date and location to suit you. The courses run 9am - 8pm on Saturday and 9am - 6pm on Sunday.

The course is designed to put you in the shoes of language learners, so you will be participating right from the start - you don't get to sit quietly behind a desk for 20 hours. The course includes two teaching practices each day plus:

Unit 1 - Warmers
Introducing yourself, getting to know each other, reducing inhibitions.

Unit 2 - Classroom management
Arranging the classroom and managing your students.

3 Day (30 hours) Weekday TEFL Courses
Just like the TEFL Org Weekend TEFL Course, the TEFL Org Weekday TEFL Course will allow you to find paid or voluntary English teaching jobs abroad. 

The 3-day courses run from Monday - Wednesday and from 9am - 6pm. Before the course, you have a pre-course task that you can take online. This will take you about 3 hours to complete and will gently warm you up and get you thinking about your course.

As well as covering all the modules below, you will also have a chance to put the theory into practice. On each day you will have the chance to deliver your own lesson. For many students on the course, this is the most important part as it really gives you the opportunity to find out what teaching is like and the chance to work on your teaching skills in a supportive learning environment.

Generally speaking, the 3-day course is for those who are unable to attend a weekend course, want more teaching practice and prefer their training experience a little less intense.

Unit 1 - Warmers
Introducing yourself, getting to know each other, reducing inhibitions.

Unit 2 - Classroom management
