This accreditation proves that our learners can access a qualification which is recognised around the world. Our learners use this qualification to help them in all aspects of building a career as a certified TEFL teacher.

OFQUAL (The Office of Qualifications and Examinations Regulation)

Ofqual is a group which exists to deliver formal recognition to providers like us. They offer accreditation for qualifications, examinations and assessments. They have deputised Highfield to act on their behalf, meaning that if Highfield delivers an accreditation, like they have with us, then it means that Ofqual have approved it by proxy.

DEAC, the Distance Education Accrediting Commission

The Distance Education Accrediting Commission is an accrediting agency based in the US. They work according to standards laid down by the Department for Education and offer an Approved Quality Curriculum (AQC) status for courses and businesses. These are awarded to anyone who has met their quality standards.

We hope that this qualification, awarded to our Level 5 TEFL course, showcases that we are a dedicated and committed learning provider who is keen to help people become first-rate TEFL teachers. It also means that we’d be approved by the academic regulators who govern US education. That’s an accolade which we will cheerfully accept. 

ODLQC:

The Open and Distance Learning Quality Council (ODLQC) is an independent organisation which helps to regulate quality in both open and distance learning providers. For a group to get accreditation, a provider has to be willing to submit to regular rounds of assessment and show that they maintain high standards throughout. We’re proud of the accreditation they have given us.

Found the course to be excellent, with staff who were terrific, especially Michelle and Walter. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to teach TEFL. One minor gripe: the platform was slow around 6-7 pm for some reason.

I recently completed the Level 5 180 Hour Diploma with the TEFL Institute of Ireland, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience.The course itself was well-structured, comprehensive, and challenging in the right ways. It covers everything from grammar and lesson planning to teaching methodologies and classroom management. I particularly appreciated the real-world examples and the practical focus, which helped me feel more confident about stepping into a classroom — whether in person or online.One thing I really appreciated was the integration of self-assessment activities and multiple-choice questions throughout each module. These were a great way to check my understanding as I went along and made the learning process more interactive and engaging.Another standout aspect of the course was the support from tutors and staff. Whenever I had questions or needed clarification, I received prompt and helpful responses. The feedback on assignments was constructive and encouraging, and the platform was easy to navigate.In short, I highly recommend the TEFL Institute of Ireland to anyone looking to get TEFL certified. Whether you're aiming to travel, teach online, or start a new career path, this course is a fantastic first step.

I have taken two courses with TEFL Institute, the TEFL Certificate and the IELTS Preparation course and both were incredibly interesting and very well done. The courses have been extremely useful in my experience as a ESL teacher and would highly recommend the Institute to anyone looking to complete a teaching certification, as they allow the course taker to work at the pace they prefer and in the time that is best suited for them.

I spoke to Elaine at the TEFL institute, and I found her really helpful. She walked me through the process of getting a course funded through social welfare, and made the whole process very easy.

Customer Care was fantastic, the horrors of attempting to navigate through all the different TEFL courses on Google was anxiety inducing and nauseating, however stumbling across the TEFL Institute of Ireland and having a chat with staff definitely calmed my nerves a bit. Staff were extremely helpful and were quick to answer my endless amount of questions and in detail. I am hoping to take that leap of faith and use my new diploma abroad and help all learners learn English!

    Yes. There are plenty of opportunities for people Who want to teach online but don’t hold a degree. Once you are qualified, you can find work online using two routes: working for an online school or starting as a freelancer. We would suggest getting some experience working with online companies in the beginning before setting out on your own. Some companies that hire candidates that are not degree holders include Cambly and Latin Hire.

    Like any job, income is mostly based on your experience working for online companies. Usually, you start at a lower rate of about $10 -$12 per hour, which is increased by bonuses based on your teacher rating or the number of classes you take. If you have experience and are working in a specific niche, such as business English, as a freelancer, you can charge anything up to $35 per hour.

    A TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) course is a training program that prepares individuals to teach English to non-native speakers in countries where English is not the primary language. In the Netherlands, there are several organizations that offer courses. These courses typically range in length from a few weeks to several months and may be offered in-person or online.

    To find a TEFL course in the Netherlands, you can start by searching online for organizations that offer these programs. Some options include:

    International TEFL Academy: This organization offers a range of courses in the Netherlands, including online and in-person options.

    TEFL Worldwide Prague: This organization offers a 120-hour TEFL course in Amsterdam, which includes 6 hours of observed teaching practice.

    TEFL Institute: This organization offers a range of courses in the Netherlands, including online and in-person options.

    It’s important to carefully research the reputation and accreditation of any course you are considering, as the quality of these programs can vary significantly. Look for courses that are accredited by recognized organizations and have a good track record of preparing students for successful careers as English teachers.

    Once you have completed a course, you will be qualified to teach English in a variety of settings, including language schools, private schools, and universities. Many people who complete a course go on to work in countries around the world, including in the Netherlands.

    De TEFL-certificering (Engels onderwijzen aan buitenlanders) is een professionele certificering die normen stelt voor degenen die Engels als tweede taal willen onderwijzen. Het is ontwikkeld door de Council of International Schools (CIS) en het is momenteel een van de meest populaire internationale onderwijsreferenties. Om een -certificering te behalen, moet u slagen voor een online examen dat uw kennis van grammatica, uitspraak, sociale wetenschappen en andere gerelateerde onderwerpen test. De certificering wordt ook over de hele wereld erkend, dus u kunt er zeker van zijn dat u met succes Engels kunt onderwijzen.

    Ja, het is zeker de moeite waard om een  te krijgen. Het zal je niet alleen uitstekende Engelse vaardigheden opleveren, maar het zal ook veel kansen voor je openen in de wereld van werk. Hoewel er veel scholen zijn die TEFL-cursussen aanbieden, is de beste manier om de juiste voor jou te vinden, door wat onderzoek te doen. Je kunt informatie vinden op websites als teachingjobs.com of Indeed.com, of door te praten met mensen die de cursus al hebben gedaan en ervan hebben geleerd. Als je eenmaal een school hebt gevonden die je interesseert, zorg er dan voor dat je hun website bezoekt en de cursusdetails zorgvuldig bekijkt, zodat je precies weet waar je aan begint.

    Het kan tot twee jaar duren om een ​​TEFL-gecertificeerde leraar te worden, maar deze hoeveelheid tijd kan veranderen afhankelijk van uw locatie en de beschikbaarheid van trainingsprogramma’s. Er zijn een aantal manieren om een ​​TEFL-gecertificeerde leraar te worden, waaronder online cursussen en persoonlijke lessen. De beste manier om erachter te komen welk programma het beste bij je past, is door wat onderzoek te doen en prijzen te vergelijken. Je moet er ook voor zorgen dat het programma dat je kiest is goedgekeurd door de TESOL (Teaching English as a Second Language) Accreditation Council. Zodra u uw cursus heeft voltooid, moet u slagen voor een assessment dat uw kennis van het onderwijzen van Engels als tweede taal test. Ten slotte moet u slagen voor een criminele achtergrondcontrole en een professionele vergunning verkrijgen van uw land of staat. Nadat dit alles is voltooid, ben je klaar om te gaan werken als een TEFL-gecertificeerde leraar!
