A Guide to TEFL Courses in England
Best Cities
London. As the capital city of England and the largest city in Europe, London offers the most TEFL programs in the country. It’s an excellent location to take TEFL courses in England, because once certified, teachers will also find the greatest amount of job opportunities. In London, teachers will benefit from all of the advantages of living in a big city - a great public transportation system, theatres, museums, cultural events, and beautiful parks and gardens.
Cambridge. Cambridge is a another great spot to earn a TEFL certificate because it’s home to Cambridge University, where the CELTA (Certificate in English Language Teaching to Adults) course originated. CELTA is one of the most well known and respected English teaching certifications, so taking a course in Cambridge allows students to be in a prominent town known for its reputable English.
Manchester. Located in Northwest England, Manchester has the third largest economy in the United Kingdom and is one the UK’s most visited cities by foreign visitors. It’s size increases certified teachers’ chances of finding a job, and there are a number of TEFL certification programs to choose from in Manchester.
Course Types
There are a variety of TEFL courses in England to choose from. Program participants can take classes online, in a classroom, or a combination of both. The most common program structure consists of 120 hours of coursework over four weeks. There are also options to take less intensive, basic 20 hour courses or more extensive 140 hour courses. Teachers may decide to take an advanced course after receiving their TEFL certification, which helps them to further their knowledge, be better prepared to teach, and focus on specific specializations.
TEFL courses in England are intensive and include hands-on teacher practicing and observation. After TEFL courses, teachers typically must take a certification exam and pass to become officially TEFL certified. To take part in a TEFL course in England, and TESOL programs abroad in general, participants usually must be native English speakers and have a bachelor's degree and/or previous teaching experience.
GoAbroad's Inside Scoop
Unfortunately, the job market for US citizens in England isn’t very promising. Schools are more likely to hire teachers from the UK because they don’t require a visa to work in England. Additionally, British teachers are in higher demand because schools want teachers to have an extensive knowledge and background of British English as opposed to American English. American teachers who do manage to get a job in England, however, will learn that English teachers are in high demand as many foreigners travel to England to improve and practice the language.
When participating in a TEFL certificate program abroad, program fees usually include accommodation, which often consists of apartments shared with other program participants. Some programs also offer homestays. TEFL programs may offer housing assistance, providing participants with resources to help them find accommodation either while or after becoming TEFL certified. Accommodation for ESL teachers may be available in a room in a private residence, an apartment, or a flat in England.
Those who choose to complete TEFL courses in England will realize that it’s a great place to become certified, as it is a native speaking country with plenty of highly trained and qualified instructors.

I am so grateful
May 29, 2026by: Lisa Roche - IrelandProgram: Get That Glow-Up: Recognised, Highly-Respected TEFL Diploma!
My experience with the TEFL Institute of Ireland so far has been excellent. From enrollment and access to the course materials, to having a tutor available as well as scheduled check-ins, the support and overall offering have been fantastic and of an exceptionally high quality. I have also had a few queries, and the customer support from Lisa Flynn has been exemplary, helping to resolve my issues quickly so I could continue enjoying the course. If you are considering taking an online TEFL course, I cannot recommend the TEFL Institute of Ireland highly enough.
Great team
April 30, 2026by: Katie Bellew - IrelandProgram: Get That Glow-Up: Recognised, Highly-Respected TEFL Diploma!
I recently started my TEFL course with the TEFL Institute of Ireland, and even though I’m still at the beginning, I’ve had a really positive experience so far. The course content is easy to navigate, and it is laid out clearly, which made getting started feel very manageable. I also really appreciate that the course is self‑paced, being able to work through the material in my own time has been a huge help. The online support team is super amazing, as they are so quick to help! Especially Lisa, who was incredibly helpful when I reached out with a question about the course. She responded quickly, explained everything clearly, and made the whole process very straightforward. Her professionalism and friendliness made a big difference in a moment when I needed help, and her help genuinely improved my experience as a new learner balancing other studies. It’s reassuring to know that the support team is so responsive and approachable. Overall, I’m enjoying the course so far, and I’m looking forward to continuing it! :)
Good experience to date.

I am currently working on achieving my 180-hour Level 5 TEFL Diploma. I enjoy the different methods used during the course. This includes audio, text, video and quizzes. Customer service and support during my course have been good to date. Questions are answered normally within 24 hours.

It’s always great to have a refresher moment as well as all the input from the other attendees. The class / the webinar leader was full of advice for us all. There is so much sage advice to be imparted.
TEFL Institute provides great courses and amazing resources!
March 10, 2026by: Samantha Horn - South AfricaProgram: Get That Glow-Up: Recognised, Highly-Respected TEFL Diploma!
I just attended the Job Coaching Seminar hosted by Emos from the TEFL Institute and it was great! Emos gave us some great advice and tips on how to approach the job market, with many examples and websites that we can look at to get more information. I enjoyed how he incorporated his real-life experience to give some guidance. Emos and TEFL Institute provide great courses and they are very supportive.
Excellent Job Coaching with Emos - Very Insightful!
February 10, 2026by: Idriss El yamani - MoroccoProgram: Get That Glow-Up: Recognised, Highly-Respected TEFL Diploma!
I recently attended the job coaching seminar with Emos, and it was a great experience. I am currently 20 years old and finishing my degree in English Studies in Morocco while completing my Level 5 180-hour TEFL program. Emos provided very practical advice on how to build a professional CV and how to prepare for international interviews. The session helped me understand exactly what steps I need to take to start my teaching career abroad once I graduate. I feel much more prepared and confident now. I highly recommend this coaching to any student looking to teach English internationally!
Helpful advice to improve
February 10, 2026by: Timothy Lewis - EnglandProgram: Get That Glow-Up: Recognised, Highly-Respected TEFL Diploma!
Great advice and education are so important in todays world. Useful lesson to follow up and get more ideas how to enrol on a good job. I very much liked to get a hint on those transferrable skills, I didnt even think about that.
A comfortable introduction to TEFL
February 10, 2026by: Nuno Pinto - PortugalProgram: Get That Glow-Up: Recognised, Highly-Respected TEFL Diploma!
It felt like a normal, standard yet comfortable and well-done introduction to the world of TEFL and looking at starting this career. Some information I think was a little bit too surface level but if you have no contact with this industry, it still feels relevant to attend, which was my situation going into this. I do think some topics were covered too superficially, for instance, what your certifications actually mean as far as getting a job, and which jobs/how far having certain teaching certs and English level in and of itself mean. A good experience overall, maybe should be slightly longer to allow for more in depth information on certain things.
Very insightful Job coaching seminar

It was a very good job coaching seminar with Emos on 12/01. He provided lots of very helpful information and was very patient with everyone's ongoing questions despite saying wait until the end for Qs. I feel well prepared to now go and start my TEFL online career.
TEFL Job Coaching Webinar by TEFL Institute
January 13, 2026by: Amin Wahidi - ItalyProgram: Get That Glow-Up: Recognised, Highly-Respected TEFL Diploma!
I am about to complete my Level 5 TEFL Advanced Diploma by TEFL Institute shortly. I found this Job Coaching Seminar/Webinar by TELF Institute of Ireland very useful. The world of teaching English is very competitive even for the native English speakers. It's more challenging when you are not a native English speaker. Especially in the first steps soon after you get your Diploma, the real world of looking for a job in the field appears tough, however you can still find a place for you, if you follow insightful advice, practical information from the experts about "how to make better your CV", "What to include in the cover letter" and "where as a right place to look for the job", you will be undoubtedly successful in finding the job you are after. Thank you very much for this webinar/seminar today.
Superb and engaging TEFL Job Coaching Seminar
January 13, 2026by: Firuz Torabi - EnglandProgram: Get That Glow-Up: Recognised, Highly-Respected TEFL Diploma!
I attended the TEFL Job Coaching Seminar. It was very informative and well structured. Emos presented the content professionally and facilitated an engaging seminar. The slides were great and to the point. The seminar also provided me with numerous pathways to initiate my job search. I loved the practical examples Emos provided. It made it much more hands-on. It would have been great to receive more country‑specific information.
TEFL Job search talk by Emos - Definately worth doing
January 13, 2026by: Annabel Gilmour - EnglandProgram: Get That Glow-Up: Recognised, Highly-Respected TEFL Diploma!
A very, very informative talk by the highly engaging Emos who supplied a lot of very useful information and links on working as an EFL teacher. Highly recommended as there are some very useful tips and tricks that I will most certainly be trying. I wasn't sure what to expect, but I've been scribbling for the last hour and am much more positive about finding a job. Thank you.
Evening TEFL Boost Training with EMOS
January 13, 2026by: Abigail Montemayor - PhilippinesProgram: Get That Glow-Up: Recognised, Highly-Respected TEFL Diploma!
Although most of the topics mentioned in the training were already familiar to me, as I am currently connected with an ESL company that teaches Cambridge YLE and am also completing a 30-hour IELTS Teacher Training course at the TEFL Institute, I found the session very valuable. The trainer did an excellent job and shared wonderful additional resources, including useful links and websites. I truly appreciate the effort and quality of the training. I am always eager to continue improving myself, especially in my teaching career, and to expand my professional network. Thank you very much for an excellent training session this evening.

Very useful information - thank you!

Surprisingly helpful

He covered some obvious points, but also some not so obvious points and there was also a Q/A at the end. We covered the general idea of the industry, identified a few franchises and platforms for teaching online and in person. It was also quite enlightening to hear other people's perspectives.
