Specialized TEFL Certificates are self-paced, allowing you three months to complete the course on your schedule. You will be assigned a personal tutor* during your course, who will be available to answer questions as you progress and give you personalized feedback on assignments.
You take each Specialized Certificates on its own, or you can bundle Certificates together. You may add these specializations to your existing TEFL certification, or combine them with Bridge Online courses or the graduate-level Bridge IDELTOnline™ Teaching Diploma, to take your training to the next level.
*The English Grammar course is a self-study online program with no personal tutor, but students can email the “Grammar Advisor” with any questions.
