Any information is appreciated.

The search 'function' isn't working for me. Evil or Very Mad

BEST = CELTA (yes, they now have an on-line course with the practicum still done in person).

Least expensive =

If you are only staying in Korea then get the cheapest.
If you plan to go elsewhere, go with the CELTA (global recognition).

Well I know my basic course is definitely the cheapest!

I'll be advertising here and elsewhere when the accredited 120 hour course I'll teach, opens in the new year. http://schooloftefl.com

TY Ttompatz(again)

Thanks for the other reply as well. ^^

The CELTA is mostly for instructing adults, correct? I'm looking to do something that will benefit me and advance my skills as a teacher for children.

I'm doing a 120 hour tutor-supported online TESOL right now with ITTT - it's $295 and I think well worth it.

Here's the link:

I'm doing the same thing right now, and the tutor is very prompt about responding to questions and staying on top of the work. It isn't too difficult especially if you have experience teaching already, but it is nice to learn some new ways to explain ESL lessons.

Am doing the ontesol.com one right now. Likewise around 300 bucks for a 100 hour course. Personally have found it's taken me around twice that long, although I might be overthinking it.
Definitely light years from a CELTA, but certainly worthwhile/helpful nonetheless.
