 Posted: Sun Dec 11, 2011 9:42 pm Post subject: Good Online TEFL Cert? |
 |
|
I know online certs aren't the best and Korean hagwons don't care much about certs and blah blah blah, but I'm thinking about getting one anyway.
I want an online course because I just don't have the money for an in person one (under $300 if possible). Plus I know they aren't held as highly in Korea, but I want to do it anyway for my own benefit and to help me be a more competent "teacher". So has anyone taken one with good experiences and would be willing to recommend me one?
Thanks |

Actually, for most employers in Korea, the $169 on-line cert is as good as a $2000 CELTA.
It is only AFTER you leave Korea that employers will ignore the on-line certs as worthless.
Just look back a day or 3. This has been covered about 6 times in different threads.

Yeah the search function isn't working for me, just goes to a blank page every time I search. |
