Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) Level 5 Advanced Diploma (RQF)
About Your Advanced Diploma
Ready to explore new career options and expand your horizons? Then the Advanced Diploma is right for you. This course is a step-up from the TEFL Diploma, but it is still very suitable for complete beginners. In addition to the TEFL essentials and specialisms included in the Diploma, the Advanced Diploma will train you in two further TEFL specialisms:
- Teaching Other Subjects in English
- Coaching IELTS (International English Language Testing System)
The more specialised your TEFL training is, the more likely you are to stand out from the crowd to prospective employers and the more likely you are to earn the higher TEFL wages, so it is definitely worth investing in a more comprehensive course.
You will also be receiving an internationally recognised qualification that is fully accredited by Ofqual and respected by employers all over the world. This means you will be able to teach from wherever you are in the world, or wherever you would like to go. Whether you would like to teach in classrooms abroad or teach online while you travel, or whether you would prefer to teach online from the comfort of your own home, this TEFL qualification will get you there.
To make getting qualified even easier, we have also included the following:
- On-Demand classes
- 50 free lesson plans
- 3-day marking turnaround – guaranteed
Key Points
- A Qualification you can trust, with the UK’s largest online course provider
- Equivalent to a Foundation Degree
- Teach English Online or Overseas
- 1 year of Study Time
- Guaranteed Job Interview*
- Additional Modules to Boost your Salary and Increase your Earning Potential
