Why myTEFL?
Built by educators. Focused on real classroom readiness.
Built by Educators — Not Marketers
Designed by experienced educators who understand real classroom demands—not marketing teams or resellers.
Training That Follows Clear Frameworks
Structured teaching methodologies focused on practical classroom skills, not surface-level theory or content overload.
Accredited & Internationally Recognized
An accredited TEFL certification accepted worldwide and aligned with the requirements schools actually look for.
Support That Doesn’t Disappear
Access tutor and academic support throughout your course, with clear guidance and expectations at every stage.
Choosing the Right TEFL Starting Point
Different goals require different levels of preparation. Most teachers start with a full TEFL course — but not everyone needs to begin in the same place.
Exploring TEFL
You’re new to teaching and want to understand what TEFL involves, or you need a basic TEFL certificate for your CV or applications before committing further.
A shorter introductory course can be a sensible starting point, with the option to upgrade later.
Building or Refining Teaching Skills
You already teach, or have completed training before, and want to strengthen your methodology, lesson planning, and practical classroom techniques.
A focused teaching-skills course can deepen your practice without repeating full training.
Preparing to Teach Professionally
You plan to teach abroad or online in a real teaching role and want to be properly prepared with full classroom coverage and long-term flexibility.
Most teachers choose a full TEFL course to build a strong foundation from the start.
