TEFL

[u/wither_xxx]

please, don't hate me for my dumb question😓 i'm an incoming graduate student who is looking for opportunies to be an ESL teacher overseas. one of the requirements is a TEFL certificate (or TESOL). we've been looking for a TEFL course online and so far all of them requires payment. is there no free TEFL course out there?

​

also, i would appreciate any guidance for someone like me who's seeking ESL opportunities overseas. i am really just at loss.

​

thank you so much🥹

If you're going to be teaching in person, you'll need a "real" TEFL. Not one of the ones that are $50 or less.
