There are a few different TEFL courses in Thailand. Unfortunately I wouldn’t really recommend any of them as they are very over priced and usually have far too many students per trainer in each class. Don’t worry though because there is a much better and cheaper option. Thanks to the Internet you can now take your TEFL course online at a fraction of the cost and end up the same accredited teaching certificate that you can use anywhere in Thailand.
Why Online TEFL Courses in Thailand Are Better
There are many advantages from taking your TEFL course online apart from saving a lot of cash. You have between 4 – 6 weeks to complete the course although you can extent it up to 6 months if you wish. This means you have the freedom to travel and complete the course at your leisure if you are already in Thailand or finish it before you even arrive in Thailand. The choice is yours.
The preliminary certificate course lasts for 100 hours. After completing this course you will receive your teaching certificate which is accepted all over Thailand. It’s an official teaching certificate and it doesn’t say “online certificate” or anything like that. In fact nobody will know you have taken your TEFL online unless you tell them!
Your teaching certificate is accredited by ACCREDITAT which is an international TEFL accreditation body based in Scotland.
Although the 100 hour course is enough to get you your teaching certificate, there are other more advanced options and courses that can last up to 450 hours which will give you even more teaching opportunities.
The 100 hour course is great value for money though and won’t cost you anywhere near the +$1,500 TEFL courses in Thailand! This is definitely the cheapest, easiest and most convenient way to get your teaching certificate.
None of the TEFL courses in Thailand come anywhere close to matching the price, convenience and quality of the course provided by the TEFL training college.
