TEFL International is one of the international pioneers and industry leaders in teacher education, having begun as one of the few internationally standardized (Trinity College, London) pre-service courses in Asia since 1998. After rigorous study and training, experts from Asia joined the company, TEFL International broke away from  the European standardized teacher training model to include many ideas, methods and concerns that are particular to teachers and language education in Asia.

Due to its popularity and success in Asia, other training organizations, training experts and universities soon partnered with TEFL International, and it was able to expand to offer pre-service teacher training all over the world. It now operates over 30 centers on every populated continent with pre-service training courses every month and is the largest independent teacher training institute in the world

"The TEFL International Certificate programs are among the best of their kind; excellent trainers teaching modern methodologies with input from some of the brightest minds in ESL. I highly recommend TEFL International.
