You do not need to have a degree in education, prior teaching experience, or a college degree to become TEFL certified. However, most Teaching English as a Foreign Language certification courses do require you to at least have a high school diploma or GED, be fluent and proficient in English, and have the ability to complete a university-level course that has extensive reading, papers, homework, tests, quizzes, plans, lessons, and student teaching/observation.
