Which is Better TEFL or TESOL certificate?

A good TESOL TEFL TOEFL certificate?

• So I am applying for a job that wants me to have a "TEFL certificate". I have avoided getting one of these because there are so many organizations and I feel that there is not a high standard of them. I have seen 100 hour courses online, then there is a popular oxford seminars which cost over a thousand dollars which is done in six days over the course of three weekends. I really don't know what makes a good program. I suppose I will do one of these programs being that I really want this specific job. Also if an online course says 100 hours, is that an estimation? Or is it based on for example 50 2 hours videos that you have to watch, similar to online drivers education courses? Thanks for you help, God Bless you all!

• Answer:

  Well we offer a 120 hour course (which is a standard minimum these days). The hourly figure is based upon an estimated time it would take to complete the work with extra reading and suchlike. Some people complete it much sooner and some take longer. It really depends. Our course consists of 5 modules which each contain reading material, a short online check and then a written assignment which is graded by your personal tutor. Some courses (especially online) lack even a tutor and are all graded automatically so avoid those at all costs! Our course: http://icalweb.com
