Q3. How many people will there be in the London TEFL classroom course?
A: There is a maximum class capacity of 20 and a minimum of 4 people per classroom.
Q4. Does the qualification expire?
A: Your TEFL certificate will be valid forever. However, as with any qualification, if you do not use the qualification for a while, employers may see it as a bit out of date. We recommend using the qualification within 18 months of completing the course. If you do not, it may be worth repeating the classroom part of the course as a refresher and to give you an up-to-date certificate.
Our approach
It’s hands on! During our TEFL London courses, our experienced trainers explain and demonstrate where appropriate, but we make sure our students get involved as much as possible. The best way to learn to TEFL is to TEFL, so look forward to lesson planning, games, and taking part in activities created by other people on the course.
You will create your very own lessons and have the chance to teach your peers. The course will enable you to fully understand how to adapt your lessons to suit different age groups and English levels.
