Traditionally TEFL certificate courses have been offered either as 4-week, intensive courses in a classroom setting or as 100% distance learning. These forms of learning do not always suit everyone’s requirements, methods of learning or time availability.
This course is ideal for those students who don't work to their best potential in intensive learning programs or for students who don't have 4 weeks to commit to an intensive course.
The International TEFL Corporation can see benefits to both forms of study and in an effort to provide a greater range of options for those wishing to become TEFL certified has designed the Combined course.
Our combined course unites our online and residential course. The course allows you to study the theoretical principles and theories of teaching and language awareness at your own pace and in the comfort of your own home/office and also gives you the time to absorb the theories of EFL teaching.
Once the online component has been completed, it is then complimented with attendance for a short period at one of our training centers to gain practical classroom teaching experience, with observation of your lessons by an experienced teacher trainer. Attendance at one of our training centers gives you the opportunity to put the theory you have learned in the online course into practice.

The online element of the course can take between 2 weeks and 6 months to complete (depending how quickly you choose to work through the course) and comes with full online tutor support. Attendance for teaching practice at one of our training centers is for either seven or ten days.
