Should I get a TEFL or TESOL certification?
Upon enrolling in a TEFL or TESOL certification program with ITTT, you have the liberty to select the acronym you wish to have displayed on your certificate, be it TEFL or TESOL. These terms are widely used interchangeably within the realm of English language teaching. However, if you have a specific location in mind for work, conducting a modest investigation into the prevailing usage of the two acronyms can be worthwhile. If job postings in your chosen destination predominantly seek TEFL-qualified teachers, opting for that acronym would align well, and vice versa if TESOL certificates are more commonly requested.

The English teaching world is well known for its love of acronyms and TESOL and TEFL are the two most common you will come across. These two can sometimes cause confusion among trainees as it is assumed they are more different than they actually are. Firstly, let's clear up what they both stand for:
TEFL = Teaching English as a Foreign Language
TESOL = Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages
The above two acronyms are typically... [Read more]
What does TESOL certification mean?
Let's begin by deciphering the acronym TESOL. TESOL stands for Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages. It pertains to scenarios where individuals who are not native English speakers are undergoing English language instruction. Strictly speaking, TESOL is used to describe situations where English is taught in an English speaking country. However, in most contexts, it is widely employed regardless of the learning environment. Furthermore, TESOL serves as the term for teacher training programs and the subsequent certification that prospective educators undertake. This certification aims to fulfill the qualification requirements established by the majority of global employers seeking English language instructors.

TEFL Application - ✔️ ✔️ ✔️ ITTT
At International TEFL and TESOL training (ITTT), we have over the course of many years introduced new standards of training and new material to the TEFL/TESOL industry. For example, many teachers say they are unable to attend a training centre to obtain Observed Teaching Practice (OTP). We have reacted to this problem by creating a new course that removes the travel aspect of obtaining OTP certification.
The course comes with either 6-hours of OTP (30-hour certificate) or 12-hours of OTP (50-hour certificate), and covers three main areas in a logical sequence starting with lesson planning, lesson feedback and lesson evaluation. The second and third phases involve both the teaching practice itself and an interview style summary over Skype. Both courses may be used with a previous grammar... [Read more]
