A Guide to TEFL Courses in Hong Kong
Courses & Programs
The best route to take in order to teach English as a foreign language in Hong Kong is to first obtain your TEFL or TESOL certificate. While you can sometimes find work as an independent tutor or at a private language academy as an uncertified teacher, going through the training and earning your TEFL certificate in Hong Kong will bolster your employment prospects with essentially every chartered school in Hong Kong.
TEFL certification programs in Hong Kong require 120 hours of instruction time, which typically corresponds to a one month training period. Topics covered during TEFL courses in Hong Kong include grammar, pronunciation, teaching methods, and classroom management skills. TEFL organizations that have schools all over the world where you can undergo training will often extend support to students to include lifetime job placement assistance upon completion of TEFL certification programs.
Certified TEFL teachers can find teaching jobs in Hong Kong in both public schools and international schools, which generally have a more diverse student body and use a British teaching curriculum. Due to the fact that Hong Kong is a wealthy global city, many of Hong Kong’s international schools are highly regarded, so teachers will be expected to have at least some practical educational experience under the belt and of course a TEFL certificate to be considered for these English teaching jobs in Hong Kong.
However, those interested in teaching in public schools typically only need TEFL certification and a college degree, and can apply through Hong Kong’s government-sponsored Native English Teacher Scheme (NET) for employment consideration. These placements typically last for two year contractual periods, and it is best to apply in the winter or spring before the school year begins in August
