The Albuquerque TEFL certification training provided by Varsity Tutors can help you get the support you need while preparing for your TEFL certification. TEFL, or Teaching English as a Foreign Language, programs train individuals on how to teach English to students of a country where English is not the primary language. TEFL is a valuable certificate if you want to advance your career in English teaching. If you earned an English degree in schools like the University of New Mexico and want to teach the language overseas, having a TEFL certificate could make it easier for you to qualify for job openings. Even if you do not have an English-related degree, you can still pursue the TEFL certification if you want to acquire skills to teach English and travel abroad.
There are many options when it comes to choosing a TEFL program. Courses that are recognized globally usually have at least 100 hours of coursework and 6 to 20 hours of practicum. You don't need a college degree or any teaching experience to study for TEFL, but you do need at least a High School Diploma or GED. Most courses also require you to be fluent and pass not only the actual course but also the practicum requirement. You can choose between online or in-person courses and certification can be earned in as little as a few weeks. This doesn't mean, though, that it's easy to obtain a TEFL certificate. You must be prepared to give the same effort, if not more, as one might exert for college courses.
Our Albuquerque TEFL certification course has several advantages that could help you reach for your certification goals. The course gives you access to expert instructors whom you can consult with if you have any questions regarding TEFL content. Your instructor has been selected after a strict interviewing and vetting process, so you can be confident that you are learning from a qualified teacher. He or she can give in-depth lectures that could help you gain a deeper understanding of concepts covered in the TEFL certification. These include skills necessary for teaching the five elements of language learning (reading, writing, speaking, listening and pronunciation), skills for managing a classroom, and skills for delivering effective lessons. If you have more questions or need to clarify points about certain topics, you can reserve one-on-one lessons with your instructor, which is another advantage that may not be as readily available in other courses.
Aside from working with you on different content, your instructor can also share tips that could have a positive impact on your TEFL preparation. You can learn about useful study methods, or how to improve your time management skills. Your time management skills are a very important part of studying for the TEFL certification since the coursework includes a lot of submissions and assignments that require you to meet a certain deadline.
The Albuquerque TEFL certification training course also lets you attend your lessons entirely online. We use a Live Learning Platform where you simply log into our virtual classroom to meet your instructor. There is no need to worry about commuting to a faraway school or review center. You can study from home, in your favorite coffee shop, or any distraction-free location. All you need is a reliable internet connection and you can participate in the course.
Obtaining your TEFL certificate can be challenging even if you are a native speaker or have high English proficiency. If you need support in your TEFL certification prep, call Varsity Tutors so we can give you more information about our Albuquerque TEFL certification class.
