The TEFL Institute
Start teaching English online & abroad
If you are looking to change your career or embark on a new adventure then TEFL is perfect for you. Choose between a wide variety of TEFL courses to start your TEFL journey today with the TEFL Institute!
What is TEFL?
TEFL stands for Teaching English as a Foreign Language. It is primarily teaching non-native speakers English without the use of translation. This means you won’t need to know their first language. TEFL teachers will need the knowledge and know-how of the methodologies to teach in this way. This is why teachers must first complete a TEFL course and gain the qualification. TEFL is widely used to teach English online in one-to-one or small group scenarios or to teach English abroad and is sometimes even used as an easier way to travel.
What is the best TEFL Course?
One thing to look out for in a TEFL course is that the TEFL company offers an Ofqual-regulated Level 5 TEFL certification. This means the content, teaching, and materials have been examined carefully and are of high quality. A qualification regulated by the UK Office for Qualifications and Examinations Regulation (Ofqual) can be awarded to learners. Another alternative is an externally accredited certification; however, you should make sure that you get at least 120 hours of training, which is the industry benchmark for employers worldwide.
Why Choose Us?
Because we care about your TEFL journey from the moment you decide you want to teach English as a foreign language. We want you to be well prepared, to have the right qualifications and all the skills necessary to realize all of your ambitions.

Verified Student Reviews
Testimonials from students who have taken courses through The Institute and found success teaching English online or abroad.
I’ve almost finished my 300-hour TEFL Diploma with this fantastic institution, and honestly, I’m much more impressed than I expected! The TEFL Institute of Ireland is one of those rare platforms that genuinely delivers what it promises. Everything is smooth ,well organised, and easy to follow — no scratching your head wondering what comes next. And the content is seriously incredible -super practical videos, PPTs, and teaching materials you can take straight into the classroom. On top of that, you get free access to job opportunities, webinars with graduates, and great support and guidance along the way. All in all ,you’re not just getting a certificate — you’re getting a real pathway into teaching and into the international job market. A special thank you to Laura , Elaine ,and Tara , who have been just amazing throughout — always quick to respond and genuinely helpful. So glad I chose the TEFL Institute of Ireland ! More than perfect! 100% recommend!!!
I had always that I knew it all as long as it had to do with English language but this course has exposed me to so many different things I never even knew existed. It’s really very interesting and I am loving it all the way.

War eine tolle Erfahrung, den 180 Stundenkurs TEFL Level 5 "durchzuackern". Die kleineren Aufbaukurse im Gesamtpaket runden das Ganze ab. Hat Spass gemacht!

I had a great experience! Killian's customer service was excellent. He's friendly, professional, and very helpful. He took the time to answer my questions and made sure I was completely satisfied. I truly appreciate the outstanding service and would highly recommend them to anyone. Thank you for the excellent customer care!
I really enjoyed the TEFL course. The teachers explain everything clearly, and the lessons are engaging and well organized. I truly appreciate the effort the team puts into the course.The only issue I have is that I submitted my Assessment 3 on July 6, but I still haven't received the result. I would be very grateful if you could help resolve this issue.Thank you for your support!
A relaxed yet buzzed up, non intimidating environment that lent itself to learning easily. Host & tutor Michelle Benson was exceptionally welcoming, pleasant, encouraging & entertaining, smiling & supportive throughout, which is why I consider 4.7 an accurate star rating; I would just like to have engaged in more than a few minutes of teaching practise during the course. Sincere gratitude to Michelle and the TEFL team, Anthony.
I had an excellent experience with The TEFL Institute whilst completing my 180 Hour Diploma and learnt so much. There was a broad focus on both face-to-face and online teaching. This made the course useful for different settings. The in-depth study of the various lesson structures has equipped me to plan lessons accordingly. Plus, throughout the modules, the amount of additional websites offered really helped to point me in the right direction, most of which would use in the future.My tutor, Laura Graham, was easily available when I needed to communicate with her and she was extremely quick to assess my work. She gave clear positive feedback and provided ongoing support and encouragement. I felt very confident in Laura as a tutor. She was always more than happy to advise. Laura was so easy to converse and so friendly. There were occasions when Laura responded to my queries late at night when I did not think i would get a reply until the next day. She most definitely is not a 9-5 tutor. When I had been having difficulty with the platform, without hesitation, she added additional time. It was so clear that Laura is dedicated to her role and I really appreciated this.When I needed to freeze my course, the institute was so accommodating and did so without question and without charge. Also, whenever I needed to make contact, John was very helpful.I would most certainly recommend The Irish Institute.
Such a fantastic course that puts theory into practice in a way that is fun and meaningful. I was a bit unsure beforehand but Michelle Benson made me comfortable from the very beginning and helped me feel more comfortable with lesson plans. She helped give me more confidence in my teaching. She made the course engaging and interactive while also bringing humour into it. I would highly recommend this course to anyone and everyone!
