TEFL: Teaching English as a Foreign Language. There are many different TEFL certificates available and they can vary considerably in terms of quality. One highly regarded one in the CELTA (see above). Things to look out for when choosing a course include the amount of class practice time you get. A good course will give you plenty of experience actually teaching in front of a class.
