Exploring my options of where to get qualified and then where to go. Also what is the difference between TEFL and TESOL?!

Hi Natalie! Thanks for getting in touch. They're basically the same thing, TEFL stands for teaching English as a foreign language and TESOL stands for teaching English to speakers of other languages. If you're looking to book soon, then there's 30% off across all of our courses until the end of January! Hope this helps, but if you have any other questions please get in touch.

Joe was very engaging in his presentation style. I particularly enjoyed the Greek lesson as it gave us a taster of how our students will experience our class as well as showing how easily a non-native speaker can pick up another language without the use of the native language. Alison Munro, Perth
