Qualify to teach English as a foreign language with an interactive online TEFL course. Combine self-paced online modules with a virtual classroom course
Combined Online and Virtual Classroom TEFL Course
If you are unable to attend one of our popular classroom courses due to either location or timing, our Virtual Classroom Course is a fantastic alternative.
Following the syllabus and philosophy of our successful 20 and 30 hour Classroom TEFL Courses, our virtual classroom TEFL courses are full of hands-on practical activities. Delivered online over Zoom by one of our experienced tutors, the course will
take you through how to plan, prepare and deliver lessons that are fun and engaging for all learner levels and age groups.
Even though the course is entirely online, don’t expect to be lectured at. This course is full of fun and practical activities that will give you the confidence to write and deliver your own lesson plans. You will also have the chance to deliver your
lesson plans to your peers during the teaching practices sessions.
