The best TEFL course depends on your goals, timeline, and where you want to teach. If you want a fast route into teaching, an entry-level TEFL qualification such as a 120-hour course is a strong starting point. If you’re planning to teach abroad long-term, want stronger recognition, or need a qualification that’s more competitive for schools and visa applications, a Level 5 TEFL Diploma is usually the better choice.
If you’re unsure, you can request a free call with our team and we’ll match you with the right option based on your plans and experience.
