Fact: For many people in non-English speaking countries, English competency is an essential requirement of professional success, whatever their chosen field or line of business.
To help people acquire the English skills they need, a global English teaching industry has emerged that is estimated as generating in excess of $15 billion annually, and recognized as being one of the fastest growing markets in education. As a result of this phenomenal growth, global demand for English teachers has exploded, and another, equally fast growing industry has emerged - English language teacher training courses, usually known as TEFL courses. |

| Because of the non-formal nature of TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) courses, short orientation coursesusually enough for someone to become a competent English are language teacher. In many parts of the world, particularly within private institutions, foreign English teachers are in great demand, especially native English speaking English teachers - teachers from English speaking countries. This has created unprecedented opportunities for a range of nationalities (particularly those from Western countries) to take on English teaching as a means of supporting themselves when traveling the world, or take up English teaching as a career. |

With such a global demand for English teachers, and the appeal it has for people interested in traveling, it is no surprise that there are now TEFL courses in almost every country on the planet. The UK , America , China , Korea , former eastern bloc countries – a simple Google search will indicate that the list goes on. However, not all TEFL courses are equal. Whereas most are professional organized and provide a genuine insight into teaching and the skills needed to be a teacher, others are more focused on the financial gains available through providing TEFL courses, and suffer as a consequence. Like any major undertaking, finding the right TEFL course requires substantial research. |
