Neurodiversity in TEFL

The International English Language Testing System (IELTS) is a standardised English language proficiency test for non-native speakers looking to start a career here in the UK or abroad. It is practised internationally. A lot of our students work towards passing their IELTS exams because it is key to studying in a country that speaks native English. There are countless training and education providers globally who use IELTS results to choose students for study. As a TEFL teacher, you’ll be paid more if you can offer IELTS exam preparation practice for life in the UK and other places. 

Having IELTS training on your CV shows any prospective TEFL employer that you will be able to teach English both abroad in classrooms and here in the UK, as well as offer language lessons online. Thanks to the theory and practical elements that the course offers, you can teach English with confidence, giving learners the skills and tools that they need to be able to pass the IELTS exam.

This qualification opens up many opportunities for an aspiring TEFL teacher. You can use it to work in places all around the world, or you can base yourself in the UK and deliver support online and in person. As an IELTS exam preparation coach, you’ve got so many options at your disposal, and you can use the skills you learn to pursue any type of life that appeals to you. 

Highfields Qualifications

The TEFL Institute works with Highfield Qualifications to provide accreditation for the Level 5 qualification we offer. It is aimed at people who have little-to-no experience with being a TEFL teacher, but also for people who do have experience but need a recognised qualification to start their career in the UK or beyond.

Thanks to this qualification, we can offer our learners a certificate recognised globally and something they can use to seek out a visa, teaching post or other form of TEFL job. If you want an overview of the units, look at the Highfield Level 5 Certificate in Teaching as a Foreign Language (TEFL). Visit the Ofqual website to find out more about Highfield.

The Accreditation Council for Distance Learning

This accrediting body specialises in authenticating distance learning courses. Their ethos is grounded in a simple idea – promoting a high standard of excellence among learners for the sake of offering a cohesive seal of approval. It helps to assure our learners that we offer the very best in terms of quality. Our accreditation number is 2854-2540.

The Vital Consular:

This is a specific verification seal, which is different from other forms of accreditation. We at the TEFL Institute are a verified UK TEFL provider. This means that the courses we provide for people are fit for purpose everywhere in the world. The Vital Consular is there specifically to verify the qualifications we offer on behalf of the UK government. Not all TEFL providers can meet these unique requirements – this means that you’ll be in good hands with us.

Your certification can be used as part of what you submit to get a work permit. This is crucial for going to places like China, Vietnam and other parts of the world where your documents need to be authenticated to get a visa. Getting this approval from the UK government is a great step in saving time and money and preventing you from needing a new course. 

As a provider recognised around the world, we have an academic team which is responsible for developing the comprehensive range of accredited and government-regulated courses we offer. Our work has earned us a substantial number of accolades, especially for our high standards of training and the teachers we produce that are consistently of a high standard.

Ultimately, what you’ll come to learn about us is that we care deeply about your journey as a new TEFL teacher. We strive to make sure you’ll have all the tools you need to be able to express yourself in the right way – especially during moments when you’re picking the tools you’ll use for the rest of your career.
