Program Overview

To teach English in Oman, you need a work visa arranged through your employer. Oman's Ministry of Labour lets employers apply online for work permits for non Omani workers, and once a permit is approved the employer completes the visa process with the Royal Oman Police. Premier TEFL's online courses prepare you for that classroom.

UK government travel advice states that you must have a visa to stay in Oman longer than 14 days or to work, and that your passport must be valid for at least 6 months after you arrive. The ministry notes that some specialized professions, such as those in education, need approval from the relevant authority, and documents such as academic qualifications may be requested. You then review and sign your employment contract online.

The 180 hour Government Regulated Level 5 TEFL Diploma, Ofqual reference 610/1572/6, is the best fit for Oman, and the 120 hour Accredited Online TEFL Course is the starting option.

Study self paced online with 24/7 access, tutor support, optional live Zoom classes, an instant digital certificate and lifetime job assistance. Enroll online and finish the course before you apply to employers in Oman.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to all the most common questions about Premier TEFL.

What kind of visa do I need to teach English in Oman as a foreigner?

You need a work visa, arranged through your employer. UK government travel advice states that you must have a visa to stay in Oman longer than 14 days or to work there. Oman's Ministry of Labour lets employers apply online for work permits for non Omani workers. After approval, the employer prints the preliminary approval and completes the visa process with the Royal Oman Police. Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months after you arrive.

Who applies for the work permit for English teachers in Oman?

Your employer does. Oman's Ministry of Labour runs an online service where employers apply for work permits for non Omani workers, entering details such as the workplace and profession and uploading documents, which can include academic qualifications. A ministry employee reviews each request. The ministry says some specialized professions, such as those in education, need approval from the relevant authority, so check with your school.

How do I sign my employment contract for a teaching job in Oman?

You sign it online through the Ministry of Labour. Once your employer registers the contract, the ministry's service lets you, as the worker, review it and then approve or reject it. You log in with your civil ID card or a phone card that supports electronic certification, open the contract under My Tasks and select Sign. The system then notifies your employer to log in and complete payment, so keep in touch with your school at this stage.

Can I complete my TEFL course online before I move to Oman to teach?

Yes. Every Premier TEFL course is studied self paced online with 24/7 access, so you can finish it from home before you travel or while your employer applies for your work permit through the Ministry of Labour. You have tutor support throughout and optional live Zoom classes to practice your teaching. When you complete the course you receive an instant digital certificate to send to employers that day, plus lifetime job assistance as a graduate.

Which Premier TEFL course is the best choice for teaching in Oman?

The 180 hour Government Regulated Level 5 TEFL Diploma, Ofqual reference 610/1572/6, suits most people heading to Oman. It is a recognized Level 5 qualification that employers can verify on the UK government register. The 120 hour Accredited Online TEFL Course is the starting option, and the 300 hour Level 5 Master TEFL Advanced Diploma, Ofqual reference 6101574X, is the step up for a stronger profile when you apply to schools.
