Teach TEFL First
Courses / Programs
Teach TEFL First is a London-based online TEFL / TESOL course provider. We offer three internationally-accredited distance learning Certificate programs (80hr, 100hr, 140hr).

Our online courses are split into 8 - 14 Modules, each taking approximately 10 hours to complete. The course is assessed by an external Moderator who provides you with support and feedback as you progress. Once you have completed the course, you are awarded a TEFL Certificate that will allow you to travel and teach abroad.

Having qualified and taught in the field, the four founders of Teach TEFL First had a desire to revolutionise the TEFL industry. They wrote an engaging online TEFL teaching course based on their own teaching experiences abroad.

Teach TEFL First was born out of a disillusionment with the current status quo of the TEFL industry. Too often, courses are constructed in a lazy fashion, students are not assisted, jobs are not vetted and legal procedures are not adhered to.

These courses represent the first step in our mission to change the industry, and challenge the existing establishment. We believe that the goal posts need to shift dramatically, one course at a time!
