Same! They provide job search guidance for as long as I need it, which is awesome. Sometimes it does really help to be able to connect with someone about the job search and have them walk me through it, because it is kind of confusing.

Hey there! I just came across this channel while browsing on UA-cam. I have a quick question: Are any of the mentioned certificates more suitable for teaching in Latin America?
great video
thank you 💙
Thanks so much, it is so helpful! I have a question for you (maybe it is answered in another video, but I just discovered your channel): do some countries have requirements for degrees (before TEFL)? Thx again
Hi there! Although it’s possible to find a teaching job that does not require a four-year degree, most competitive countries will require applicants to have a college degree.

Ma'am , I want to ask one question from you.
As I am a non native speaker . So it is compulsory to take the IELTS Exam before applying for the TEFL course .
What about IITT
Can you explain the difference or the pros and cons between doing tefl course through a traditional university vs tefl companies ?

Hi. Nice video.
I need your help. I want to take a tefl course at the so-called World Tesol Academy. The online reviews are somewhat contradictory. This academy is located in UK. How can I make sure it's a legitimate company and the course is internationally recognized?
And if this academy is fake, would you recommend a good academy with the lowest price.

Love from Pakistan
Hi! I’m from Dominican Republic and found an academy called "The TEFL Institute”, I would love to hear a review about them. I’ve seen how nice is their website and the contents of the course, but I haven’t heard about them on reviews online and it seems weird bc they look very trustable.
Pls have you been able to get any lead on this? I have same issue
Same, I'm considering them as well and they don't seem to have much online community presence. They do however have a linkedin account you should check out and a considerable amount of past students on there.
TLDR: will Maximo Nivel's certification qualify me to teach in Paris? if not, what tefl course that is less than $400 will? (not married to TAPIF, but I understand it is the standard way to teach in france)
I want to teach English online (or possibly in class, but I prefer online) while I live in france, and I have been doing a lot of research about everything required to do so. I know that I need a tefl certificate to do so. (im aware that if I had a Celta or tesol that would be way better, but those are out of my budget). Anyways I have landed on the Maximo nivel tefl course as that provides practicum, live teaching, is 120 hours long, and comparatively cheap (

Hi.
I completed the 150-hour International Diploma in English Language Teaching (IDELT) earlier this year, in addition to the Teaching English Online bundle and Grammar Advisor. The IDELT was an intense program, tons of reading and writing, but I learned a lot, despite already having over 25 years of English teaching experience. I chose the program because it was at graduate level and accredited, which was important to me for credit recognition abroad. I was thoroughly impressed with the course and the high level of service. All feedback was prompt and helpful. I can't recommend Bridge highly enough. Their prices are fair and you can also save money by purchasing courses during one of their frequent sales and by bundling.

Why are you in such a hurry. After 35 years of teaching I notice that teachers want to move on as fast as possible. Those are the ones who always forget about wait time too. Yes, students need to "talk" and be corrected, but not too long. Oh, anyone working online seem to have to go as quickly as they can. I taught 15 years as a High School teacher teaching Social Studies, Then I took a TEFL course - Anyway It's been a wonderful career. My last 20 years I taught overseas in the Middle East. 12 of those years were teaching in a University in Saudi Arabia and I loved it.
It’s called life. You want to make a change from private to public schooling for the benefits. You already live in a country and you want to teach there and you don’t want to waste time.
Could you tell me how you landed the job in Saudia Arabia?
Try Hong Kong, nice children
I to I is a nightmare people. Their live chat doesn't work, their phone number doesn't work, their callback doesn't work. They deleted my old account that I purchased a membership a couple years ago with so I emailed them trying to figure that out and get a course extension, they emailed me back asking when I bought it and what email I used (they couldn't just look up the email that I emailed them from?) I sent them a screenshot of my purchase with all my info and it's now been a week since I sent that and still not received a response. Absolutely unbelievably horrible tefl course to take, do not support these incompetent worthless idiots.
You might want to lose the fake croak at the end of every sentence, I had to turn off the volume & go to subtitles.
Be quiet.
