Which Course?
TEFL is like any profession, it has its own system of qualifications and certification. Here is, we hope, a simplification of the different courses you can do.
TEFL Scotland provides TEFL qualifications for the first-time teacher and all of the courses we offer will find you paid teaching English work abroad. The general rule of thumb is that the more you study, the more confident and prepared you will feel and the more competitive you will be in the TEFL job market.
20-hour weekend or 30-hour weekday TEFL courses
These are our most popular course, most choose this course along with an online component, for a blended learning experience of the classroom and self-study.
The weekend/weekday course brings to life the methodology and practice of English language teaching and is recommended for those without teaching experience.
Whether you choose a weekend or weekday is really a question of convenience for you. Though, you will get more teaching practice on a 3-day TEFL course.
50-hour online TEFL course
This course goes into methodology and theory in greater depth, while taking a look at the practical elements of teaching through the use of video. You are also guided through the course by your personal tutor, enabling you to cover the topics at a pace that suits you, in fact you have up to 6 months to complete the course.
Some who take this course by itself either prefer online learning or don't have the time for a weekend course. Most take this course to support and consolidate what they have learnt on the weekend TEFL course.
30-hour online grammar course
This is recommended for all first-time teachers unless you are comfortable with terms like present participle, passive voice and the past perfect.
You have 6 months to complete the course, so is ideal to be working on while you are waiting to go on your weekend TEFL course or while you are doing your online TEFL course.
You can book this course at the same time as your other courses.

You can book any or all of the above courses. If you book your desired courses at the same time, then you can save up to £95. Plus, you will receive a certificate for every course you take, giving you up to 110 hours of certificated TEFL learning.
