We offer an excellent TEFL Certificate (approved by City & Guilds) as both part-time (3 times a year) and full-time: 2 Days Induction and 4 weeks of intensive training and teaching practice. the Full-Time Courses are run more frequently and on demand. Both courses are over 120 hours and our classes do not exceed 12 trainees. We have received glowing reports about our teachers are proud of their achievements.

Highlights: We have trained almost 200 TEFL candidates and over 50 of our graduates are teaching (or have taught) overseas in Japan, South Korea, China, Australia, New Zealand, England, Denmark, Spain, Holland, Taiwan, Indonesia, Thailand, Mozambique, and South Africa. Most of our Langahead teachers are also Langahead TEFL Alumni, whether they teach English, Italian, Hindi or Zulu. We are accredited by City & Guilds to offer their ACE program (Access Certificate of Education) which is written by Manchester University. Our students do our Langahead TEFL Certificate and then have the option of doing the ACE examination. City & Guilds is the only one of the main Examining Boards to offer an examination option.

Qualifications: Ideally, prospective candidates should have a degree or degree equivalent as many countries in the world demand this. We do, however, implement RPL (Recognised Prior Learning) and none of our TEFL students have been refused work opportunities, with or without a degree.
