TEFL Certification Course Thailand (140 hour)
Our 140-hour TEFL certification course is truly the most comprehensive in Thailand. The TEFL course in Thailand technique combines both theoretical motivations of teaching and practical aspects during onsite instruction. Our Certificate TEFL course is both immersive and hands-on, as we believe the best way to gain knowledge and confidence as a teacher is through physically doing it.
The observed TEFL program teaching practice to real learners of ESL provides our graduates with needed real-world training. The hands-on aspects of our teaching English as a foreign course certification training will be further enhanced during our teaching practice and observations at local schools to real learners of ESL during the TEFL training.
Our TEFL certification Thailand course will provide a solid idea of what to teach a foreign language student and how to teach and deliver that lesson in real-life situations. Our TEFL course certification courses focus on both the "what" and the "how" of teaching in a real classroom setting. Our TEFL qualification is dramatically different than our competition, and that is why we have been awarded the BEST TEFL in Thailand, along with a multitude of other educational awards for our teacher training.
If you would like a TEFL program in Thailand with both the needed knowledge and the earned confidence to teach students in a real classroom, then the Entrust TEFL certification course is for you. Once you earn your TEFL Certificate with Entrust, you will be able to successfully plan to engage your students through guided, meaningful instruction that will ultimately provide your students with tremendous success.
Why is Entrust TEFL considered a Full service provider?
Unlike other TEFL / TESOL providers that can only provide you with a training certificate and wave you goodbye, here at Entrust TEFL, we provide what you need to get started earning an income teaching English in Thailand.

You can arrive in Thailand on the proper visa and obtain your work permit during the course through your employer. This will allow you to start teaching stress-free so you can focus on your students rather than constantly maintaining your legal status in Thailand.

- Arrival in Thailand
You will be arriving on either a Visa on Arrival or a Visa from a Thai Embassy in your country.
Visa on Arrival - This visa is the most popular as all you have to do is step off the airplane and receive 30 days with a 30-day extension to a total of 60 days. This is far more time needed to complete the TEFL training course and meet your employers to swap out your tourist visa for a working visa and work permit.
Tourist Visa - This visa will require you to visit a Thai embassy to obtain a tourist visa. This visa will provide you with 60 days with a 30-day extension to a total of 90 days. Again this is far more time needed to complete the TEFL training course and meet your employers to swap out your tourist visa for a working visa and work permit.
Non-Immigrant Visa - If you have opted for the Visa starter package then you will arrive on the non-immigrant visa which will provide you with 90 days to obtain your work permit. You may start your work permit process during the course and have it in hand before you graduate as it only takes 8-10 business days. Once you obtain your work permit your visa is extended for one year of entry. Having your work permit not only allows you to work legally but enables you to open a bank account, obtain a Thai driver's license, and many more basic necessities.
Airport Pickup - If you have opted for the Training accommodation then we will collect you from the airport and take you to your accommodation to relax from your flight.
