Considering Online TEFL Certificate

HI all

Wondering if any one could give me some help and advice.

Im moving to Turkey, Kusadasi in november and have been looking into doing the 120 hours online TEFL course, I currently work at Blackpool college in Learning Support, I do not have a degree but do have a HND in Business Management and experience with working with students doing in class support.

Could anybody tell me if the online TEFL courses are any good and if the certificate would help me find work teaching English without a degree in Turkey, I have read on other forums that some Turkish schools will take you on with only the TEFL cert, could any body add to this or maybe recommend another course that might be suitable.

Many thanks.

Hi there!

Yes, online TEFL courses are generally well-regarded and can help you find teaching work in Turkey, especially if you don’t have a degree. Many schools in Turkey accept a TEFL certificate as a qualification, so it should open doors for you. For a solid option, consider the 120-hour TEFL course from ITTT or International TEFL Academy bc both are widely recognized.
