More certifications will open the most doors when it comes to teaching English in the classroom or online in today's hyper-competitive TEFL world.
But what do such qualifications entail?
Do you still need a TEFL/TESOL certificate if you have a bachelor's degree in a related (or even unrelated) subject?
What if you have a master's degree under your belt?
Yes, most degree holders will require training in teaching English as a foreign language in order to qualify for teaching positions.

What’s the difference between TEFL, TESL and TESOL?

​

TEFL, TESL, TESOL are NOT certifications or qualifications, these are terms that refer to where and to whom you are teaching English. These terms are used interchangeably, so it can sometimes be confusing to know what they mean!

​

• TESL refers to Teaching English as a Second Language: programs in English-speaking countries for students whose first language is other than English.

• TEFL refers to Teaching English as a Foreign Language: programs in countries where English is not the primary language and is not a lingua franca.

• TESOL, which stands for Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages, is a general name for the field of teaching that includes both TESL and TEFL
