The cost of TEFL courses can vary depending on several factors. One of the main factors is the type of course you choose. Online TEFL courses tend to be more affordable than in-person courses, as they do not incur costs for physical facilities or materials. Additionally, the duration of the course can impact the cost. Longer courses with more hours of instruction may cost more than shorter courses. Another factor that influences the cost of TEFL courses is the accreditation of the program. Courses offered by well-known and reputable institutions or organizations may be more expensive than those offered by lesser-known providers. Accredited courses are often more comprehensive and recognized by employers, which can justify the higher cost. On average, the cost of a TEFL course can range...  [Read more]

Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas It was my first experience teaching in Taiwan and I was in charge of teaching ESL to 7th-11th graders. I had never taught out of the United States and never considered the possibility that my students wouldn't understand, what I thought, was simple English.

I told my senior high students to "give me a show of hands" and told them if they "studied hard" and "hit the books," they would "pass with flying colors." I told my college students I would give them an "A for effort" if they "quit goofing off" and "skipping class" or "playing hooky." Some nodded their heads as if they understood and others just...  [Read more]
