New York, NY (PRWEB) April 21, 2008 -- Schools, institutions of higher learning and even multinational companies across the globe are vying for instructors skilled in teaching English as a foreign language (TEFL), a field also known as teaching English to speakers of other languages (TESOL). World-renowned TEFL International is one of the largest distributed course providers helping individuals take advantage of these TEFL job opportunities.

"Several organizations offer TEFL or TESOL training courses and certificates," said Alex Strachan, Marketing Director of TEFL International. "But only a small number issue globally accepted credentials like we do." The company's four-week courses include more than 120 hours of instruction in English grammar, teaching skills and classroom management. Trainees also undergo six hours of teaching practice with actual English students while the company's trainers observe and offer critiques before being eligible for TEFL certification.

I would say that we train more EFL/ESL teachers worldwide than any other training company
TEFL International currently offers training at numerous locations around the world: the United States, Spain, Italy, France, Greece, Argentina, Egypt, Vietnam, China, Thailand, India, the Czech Republic and the Philippines. Accommodation at or near TEFL International training centers can be arranged as part of the training package.

"I would say that we train more EFL/ESL teachers worldwide than any other training company," said Strachan. "Our advantages include the international recognition we've earned and the consistency of our course content from location to location. But perhaps one of the biggest differences is that we actively help our course graduates find employment."

Each course includes job guidance and placement, including a letter of recommendation and trainer references so that trainees' prospects of acquiring jobs are greatly enhanced. In addition, the company Web site contains resources for finding teaching jobs throughout the world.

"Also, in many locations, we keep the prices in U.S. dollars and have managed to avoid any price increases despite the dollar's decline over the last couple of years," continued Strachan. "That feat is testimony to both the demand for English literacy in the global marketplace and to our training course continually being the course of choice among prospective TEFL teachers."

In the summer of 2008, the company will start offering a new, more flexible "combined course" format where students first engage in distance learning by participating in self-paced online classes on learn teaching theories and then spend two weeks at a training centre to gain practical classroom experience. The company will also be opening training centers in London and Oregon this year.
