Ok, this is one for the experts.
I recieved an application today with this line in the cover letter.
Quote: |
Upon graduating, i will be given a TEFLQ status (higest qualification in TEFL). |
The uncaptialized i is the original.
I've never heard of TEFLQ status. Have you? |

Hope it's a nice, roomy, cave, as it's going to get crowded.
Best,

I've heard of it, but I wouldn't say its the higest (sic) qualification in TEFL, and I think that classification is only used in British Council circles.
I wouldn't beat yourself up about it Melee.  |

So ... what would we call a Ph.D. ?
I think our cave is getting crowded, 'cause I am going to have to join you there. |

Tefl Q is DELTA or similar as opposed to TEFL-I which is CELTA. Only ever heard of the British Council using it though. |
