    The course, explained

    Employers abroad and online usually ask for at least 120-Hours of TEFL training. This course meets that standard and is built for students in Year 12 and Year 13, who can complete it in enrichment time or at home without taking time away from their A levels.

    Students finish Sixth Form with a certificate they can verify, a personalised reference letter, and specific teaching experience to describe in a personal statement or a first job interview.

    Got questions?

    The questions sixth formers and parents ask us most.

    Is the course suitable for sixth-form students?

    Yes. It is designed for students aged 16 to 18 and can be studied alongside A levels, in enrichment time or at home.

    What can I do with a TEFL certificate at 18?

    Some online teaching platforms and summer camps accept TEFL qualified teachers at 18. Most teach abroad routes ask for a degree, so many students hold the certificate until after university.

    How long does it take to complete?

    You have six months of access. Most students study a few hours a week and finish within one or two school terms.

    How is the course assessed?

    Each of the ten modules ends in a quiz you can retake. You have a personal tutor who is on hand to answer any questions.

    Does the certificate expire?

    No. Your certificate is lifelong and comes with a personalised reference letter.

    Can my school enrol a whole year group?

    Yes. Schools receive tiered group pricing and a staff dashboard to follow student progress. Use the school quote link on this page.
