About Teaching Courses

By obtaining a Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) qualification, you can unlock exciting potential for your career in education. Traditionally perceived as a way to fund international travel, TEFL has evolved into a rewarding and dynamic career path that opens a world of opportunities for TEFL educators.

Globally there are two recognised pathways to enable you to start teaching English around the world. These are the Cambridge University CELTA and the Trinity College London CertTESOL. Both are valid certifications (Level 5 UK Qualifications and Credit Framework) and will equip you with a globally recognised qualification. Oxford International is accredited by Trinity College London to deliver the Trinity Certificate in TESOL and the Trinity Diploma in TESOL.

What our past learners have to say.

This course helped to systematise my knowledge of English grammar and phonology as well as gave me some important tips on the teaching methods and techniques. The most valuable tip was how to maintain the balance between student talking time and teacher talking time. Might sound easy, but it's not!
