Teaching without Experience - Asian College of Teachers

Am I eligible to teach ESL/EFL abroad without Teaching Experience?

The answer is YES - almost every year, thousands of graduate teachers are being employed in schools and colleges across the globe to teach English or other subjects in English. Experience is, of course, valued by the employers employing ESL/EFL teachers, but it is not a mandate for teaching in the native or non-native English speaking countries, as is possessing a TEFL/TESOL certificate.

It has been found in a study that more than 1 billion of the world population takes English learning lessons in some form or the other, which makes the demand for English teachers quite high; not just in the various schools, but also in language training institutes, corporate organisations, or even in summer camps - a popular practice in American and European schools that is fast catching up in Asian countries, too. For most employers, experience is not a mandate;however, it is best for a fresher to apply for jobs in places with a high demand for trained ESL/EFL teachers. Hence, countries in Asia and South America, the requirements for an EFL teacher arepreferably a graduation degree, fluent English speaking skill and a TEFL qualification.

How can I teach the learners in English?

Teachers with a minimum of 120 hour TEFL certificate are acquainted with the nuances of latest ESL/EFL teaching techniques and methodologies like lesson planning, communication skills, grammar, classroom management skills, et al whereby they gain the competency to teach English or other subjects in English to the learners of various countries, backgrounds or age.

Nowadays, the TEFL training institutes are providing the TEFL courses both in online as well as in in-class mode of learning. The in-class TEFL course is usually for 120 hours that covers a span of 3 weeks or more. It acquaints the aspirants with practical teaching skills and knowledge; along with attending Teaching Practice sessions in nearby schools.

What about my placement?

After course completion, the candidates become eligible to apply to teach English both for Private as well as Government teaching jobs abroad and also in their native country. Also, the certified institutes provide 100% placement assistance to their candidates, helping them in their search for a job of their preference and suitability.

DISCLAIMER

Asian College of Teachers (ACT) undertakes a continuous review of its teacher training courses to ensure imparting high quality education. However, there might be circumstances outside of ACT’s control which might affect its stakeholders like if you are planning to teach in a different country, applying for a teaching license, pursuing higher studies or trying to get the certificate approved by the Ministry of Education (MoE) of a particular country then you can do so with the certificate issued by Asian College of Teachers (ACT). However, each country’s Ministry of Education (MoE) or educational bodies set certain standards that are indispensable for the pursuit of higher studies or teaching in schools in that country. So it can be a possibility that you may be able to use the certificate for higher studies or teaching purposes in one country and not in another. Therefore, we strongly recommend that you investigate thoroughly and check with the relevant authorities regarding the acceptance of the certificate issued by us before you enrol on a particular course. ACT strives to offer high-quality education and its certificates can be valuable for various purposes internationally, but still it is crucial for individuals to verify the specific recognition of the certificate in the country they intend to use it, especially for formal education or professional licensing purposes. This approach ensures that the stakeholders make informed decisions regarding their educational and career paths.
