TEFL Online Diploma

150 Hours TEFL/TESOL Diploma Program

A TEFL diploma is an advanced qualification for individuals who want to enhance their teaching skills and gain a deeper understanding of English language teaching. This certification usually requires a minimum of 150 hours of coursework and may include more advanced topics such as teaching business English, teaching young learners, or teaching English for specific purposes.

A TEFL diploma is suitable for those who want to progress in their careers as English language teachers or pursue leadership roles in the field of English language teaching. It can also open up more opportunities for teaching English abroad or online.

TEFL diploma programs may be offered online or in-person, and they may include practical teaching experience or observation as part of the coursework.

As with any qualification, it's important to carefully research and choose a TEFL diploma program that meets your specific needs and goals. Factors to consider may include the program's accreditation, reputation, cost, and location.

Methodology

At LCT, we employ the Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) method, in which we push our students to use the target language in conversation and practise.

Teaching Practice

Candidates who have never taught previously will find that Teaching Practice (TP) is of great assistance. Although TP is optional, applicants are urged to look out situations where they can practise teaching their target audience in their neighbourhood or ideal location. They will be able to use what they have learnt throughout their programme with us and receive priceless practical experience as a result.

We will offer a letter of recommendation for the internship at the school or institution of the candidate's choosing who is interested in participating in a TP.
