I know it has been asked before, but does anyone care to share their current research on what online schools are best for TESOL and why?

How about the TEFL certificate? Is it worth it?

Confused

If you plan on being in this field for 2+ years, then a certificate (Trinity TESOL or CELTA, not some other one) is definitely worth it. Actually, it is definitely worth it even if starting out if you have a lot of money already, though most don't Smile If you plan on making this a career, then an MA is definitely worth it (some say a DELTA, but that is more so only for Europe). I guess it depends on your financial situation and what your future plans are. Either way, for 2+ years, a certificate atleast is almost necessary. It will show you are interested in improvement at the least. I think both a CELTA and an MA make really good ESL/EFL teachers.
