Which TEFL or TESOL providers would you recommend?

I'm an American employed by GEPIK at a high school, and am looking both for gaining useful knowledge, and for qualifying for a greater raise next year at this same school. I'm only looking one year forward on this, not long-term. I'm also unsure how good the 'best' providers are.

As such,

1.) Who provides the best training?
2.) Who provides the cheapest/fastest training qualifying training?

What's the difference in quality between those options?

Thanks.

You seem quite keen to get this info but it really depends on your future plans as many others on this site will tell you. You should make it clear whether you see TEFL as a long term thing or just a couple of years in Korea. Other factors include what nationality you are, where you'd like to work in the future and what age range you want to teach. Knowing all this would make it easier for people to give you advice

If you're not looking forward you should do the cheapest online TEFL course you can find for 100 hours and that will get you your raise at Korean public Schools . I 've picked that up myself from visiting this site though I haven't done one myself.
