140-Hour Hybrid Course Specifics
The 140-Hour Hybrid International Certification Online/Onsite Course has been designed for anyone wanting to start Teaching English as a Foreign Language abroad.
Because the 140-Hour Hybrid Online/Onsite is designed for customers with little or no experience teaching English, it incorporates all 12 International Standard TEFL modules, detailed below, making it the ideal platform to kick-start your TEFL career.
Throughout the course, you’ll develop your lesson-planning skills and put them into practice through two lesson-plan assignments. By the end of your training, you’ll know how to create comprehensive, logically structured lesson plans that you can adapt and use in your own English classes.
This is a self-paced study course, with 24/7 online tutor support. You can begin the course at any time during the year.
In addition, this course also includes the Teaching Business English and Teaching Young and Younger Learners specialized units – meaning that you will graduate from the course with the necessary skills and knowledge to feel comfortable teaching all learner types.
The 140-Hour Hybrid Online/Onsite combines the best of both worlds: the flexibility to complete the theoretical training from the comfort of your own home and at your own pace, together with the hands-on teaching practice of an onsite course. The 20 hours of teaching practice take place after you have completed all 12 modules, both lesson-plan assignments, and the two specialized units. The teaching practice can be arranged at a location close to where you live or are staying.
One of the most frequently asked questions that we receive about this course is if it is possible to take the practicum in a specific location. The teaching practicum can be taken in any location because it is up to you to locate and arrange your students.
In addition, your 20-hour practicum can be taught in-person or online.
TEFL Online Pro will provide you with your Lesson Planning and Lesson Observation worksheets, and you have the flexibility and freedom of completing the 20-hour practicum by teaching at a local school, a local business, with a group of students, friends, or with members of your family. Again, though, it is entirely your responsibility to find and manage your students for your teaching practicum. The vast majority of our Hybrid students experience little to no issues with this process.
The 140-Hour Hybrid Online/Onsite is equivalent to a full-time onsite TEFL course qualification, except that it offers a much more flexible system of study with a much more affordable price tag.
