TEFL Thailand - teacher training

Option 2: TEFL on the Beach in Thailand

This internationally recognized teacher training course provides 120 hours of tuition and observation in Teaching English as a Second or Other Language with a focus on teaching in Thailand, and a further 8 hours of practice teaching. The course is a perfect match for long-term volunteers or those who are looking for certification to teach all over the world. The best part is that this course is offered on world-renowned Phuket Island in the stunning Andaman Sea!

This course includes instruction in a broad range of topics, including:

  • identification of potential student problems
  • the English language sound system
  • current teaching methodologies
  • student needs analysis
  • lesson planning and creating materials
  • the nature of language
  • classroom management techniques

Most importantly, you will be guided through the process of planning, preparing, and implementing a lesson, and you'll be given guidance and constructive feedback for your teaching practice sessions.

Once you have obtained your teaching certificate, you'll travel to Khorat for a day of language and culture training, then off to your placement to meet your homestay hosts and start your volunteer service!
