A warm welcome from TEFL Org UK
Founded in 2008 by Joe and Jennifer Hallwood in the heart of the Scottish Highlands, TEFL Org UK has now trained over 35,000 people to teach English as a foreign language. Joe and
Jennifer met while teaching English in Greece and decided they wanted to inspire other people to experience TEFL and make it accessible to everyone. Starting out as TEFL Scotland,
the company quickly expanded and courses were set up around England, Ireland and Wales shortly after. In August 2013, TEFL Scotland, TEFL England and TEFL Wales combined to
become TEFL Org UK, and is proud to be the most highly accredited TEFL provider in the UK.
A message from the founders of TEFL Org UK.

Working in a dead-end tax office job in Hull, I knew this wasnt My TEFL journey began while at university with the dawning

A journey of a thousand miles
starts with a single step

What is TEFL?
TEFL stands for Teaching English as a Foreign Language. Over one billion people are
learning English as a foreign language. So naturally, the demand for English teachers
abroad is sky high.

Who is TEFL for?


Everyone! We truly believe that if you have the ability to speak English fluently and have
the desire to help others learn, you can become a TEFL teacher.

Where can TEFL take you?


All around the world! We currently have job opportunities in over 40 countries world-
wide listed on our job centre exclusive to TEFL Org UK students.

Do I need experience?
Not a teacher? Never planned a lesson in your life? No problem! We have trained over
35,000 students and the majority of them had never taught before!

P4
Your TEFL adventure made easy
Do you speak English fluently? Congratulations! Youre one
step closer to making your dream of travelling the world a
reality. Teaching English as a Foreign Language can take
you across the globe.
TEFL teachers can teach English to people of all ages and
backgrounds; abroad or in their home countries, in schools,
privately, for business or online. Perhaps youre a student
looking to volunteer during your gap year? Unemployed
and looking for a new opportunity for work? Bored of the
daily grind and desperate to see what else is out there? Or
maybe you would like to embark on an international adven-
ture after you retire? Whoever you are, TEFL could be your
passport to an unforgettable adventure.

Rebecca-Anne Lawson
School-leaver currently teaching in Sant Sadurni dAnoia, Spain
Its so wonderful to live in another culture. Taking a TEFL England course was one of my best decisions.I
left school in June with average grades and started work in September. Being given such an opportunity
in this economic climate is rare. I could not be happier!

Colin Macpherson
Started his TEFL career in Russia
I have so many interesting and exciting memories of my time here. Every day has been an adventure
and has certainly kept me on my toes! The Togliatti Chamber of Commerce invited me to speak at the
opening of their new tourist initiative. I helped one of my students to design the website, and the next
thing I knew I had received an invitation to speak at their prestigious event.

Amy Feighan
Currently teaching in Budapest, Hungary
Can you be here in two weeks? - This was the question that completely changed my life. The experi-
ences Ive had and the people Ive met since moving to Hungary make me feel glad I made this deci-
sion andI wish that more people would have the courage to teach and travel, because I couldnt rec-
ommend it highly enough. As for my future, all I know is Im planning to see as much of the world
as I can and become the best teacher I can be. Who knows where I will be this time next year,
I cant wait to find out!

Rebecca Parker
Volunteering in Tamil Nadu, India
I think that it is possible that I am starting to lose my Western eye and beginning to see life through
Indian eyesThe school is an absolute delight and the pupils I just dont have words to adequately
describe their attributes. It is so refreshing to engage with youngsters who actively want to go to school
and learn. Their enthusiasm is boundless!

Alison MacIver
A university graduate teaching English online from her home in Dundee
I really enjoy teaching online. I dont have to worry about any travel arrangements and costs. It is com-
pletely flexible. I also find it quite amazing that I speak to people in Taiwan and China on a daily basis!
Non-native English speakers really benefit from speaking to native English speakers, and when students
hear my accent and find out I am from the UK/Scotland they get really excited!

Daniel Henderson
Teaching in Spain
TEFL has given me the ability to do something completely different: practise a new language, travel
around Andaluca and meet many new friends. For the first time in a long time I go out every weekend, eat
out regularly (cheaper and miles better) and generally live the life of Riley! I would (and do) recommend
TEFL to anyone; the opportunities to travel are endless and the chance to study the construction of your
own language is surprisingly rewarding.

Tom Ambrose
Teaching in Thailand
The first four weeks of teaching in Thailand have been a bit of a rollercoaster but Ive loved every min-
ute. If anyone reading this is at all unsure whether or not to take the plunge and start teaching English,
whether it is at home or abroad, I would say this with full confidence: Do it. You wont regret it!

Craig MacInnes
Teaching in Hong Kong
Teaching here is great fun. Ive found that the students are incredibly interested in our lives in the West
and are always happy to ask questions. If youre looking for a bustling city experience that can offer you
everything you want 24/7 then I would strongly recommend getting yourself over to Hong Kong. Its a
spectacular place that never fails to surprise me!
