TQUK Level 5 Certificate in Teaching English as a Foreign Language (RQF)
Teach anywhere with an Ofqual-regulated 168-hour Level 5 qualification.
Build a stronger future in English language teaching with an Ofqual-regulated Level 5 TEFL qualification recognised on the UK Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF).
This course helps new and practising teachers build the knowledge, confidence and practical skills needed to teach English effectively. You will develop skills in lesson planning, classroom management, language awareness and teaching English skills, while gaining a recognised qualification with more credibility than a short introductory TEFL course.
This course is ideal for anyone who wants to begin or advance a career in English language teaching with a qualification that reflects serious professional preparation, practical classroom relevance and international recognition. As a Level 5 TEFL qualification, it is comparable to other recognised Level 5 TEFL/TESOL qualifications, such as Cambridge CELTA and Trinity CertTESOL. When combined with our TQUK-certified Level 5 Observed Teaching Practice course, it provides a direct equivalent in level and practical teaching preparation.
