So, you have made the decision to teach English abroad, but with so many courses and companies, it can be difficult to know which course is the right one for you! This blog post outlines the key differences between CELTA and TEFL courses, the price, pros and cons, and course work. Both require commitment and are definitely worthwhile experiences!
Let’s start at the beginning! CELTA stands for Certificate in English Language Teaching to Adults (now known as Certificate in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) and TEFL stands for Teaching English as a Foreign Language.
TEFL refers to any certification program that trains an English speaker to teach the English language to others. CELTA, on the other hand, is a very intensive ESL teaching certificate, created by Cambridge University. It is considered one of the most
prestigious qualifications for teaching English abroad.
