I had THE best time at TEFL Iberia. I didn't really know what to expect before starting the course and it turned out to be nothing but excellent. The course was very intense, but it was so well-structured and the whole staff was so professional and ready to go the extra mile, that in just a month I found myself perfectly able to teach English.

What will the 100% Online Trinity CertTESOL be like?
Our new 100% Online Trinity CertTESOL course is done via Zoom and does not require any in-person training at all. Your pre-course interview will also be via Zoom, so you will get experience of using this tool before the course has started.
The input sessions, lesson preparation, teaching practice, feedback and all assignments will be completed online. All the course material has been adapted to make this as seamless as possible and we will also send you a physical copy of the course textbook so you can take notes comfortably.
The Trinity CertTESOL course is very intensive and you will take part in 30 hours of live online training per week, plus an additional 10-15 hours studying in your own time and completing assignments.
The course timetable has been carefully chosen to satisfy students in as many time zones as possible and we may open up additional sessions at different times to cater to even more students.
The course is Monday - Friday and you will take part in live training sessions every day, with the opportunity to spend time in smaller groups as you would in a real classroom. You’ll also get plenty of time for self-study and lesson preparation, with a live tutor and group support at the click of a button. You’ll teach lessons online to real groups of students and receive detailed feedback from your course tutor.

Frequently Asked Questions
View More FAQsDoes this course qualify me to teach English?
The Trinity CertTESOL is one of the few courses which are recognised by governments and schools internationally.
How much will I get paid as an English teacher?
The average rate of pay nowadays for new teachers is 12-15€/hour. Working for an academy full time (20 hours) you can expect to earn 1100€/month after tax. If you add on 2 private classes per week (it is easy to do more) you can increase that to 1300€/month.
Do I need to speak Spanish to teach English in Spain?
No. English is the only language used in the classroom and we want to show you how you can teach without using a word of the foreign language.
Will i be able to work in a classroom after completing this course
Yes, the Trinity CertTESOL qualification is valid for both online and in-person teaching jobs. To make sure you are completely prepared, we also include a bonus 2-day practical teaching workshop at our school in Barcelona, in order to give you classroom experience with real students.
What will the online teaching practice be like?
The teaching practice takes place online via Zoom. You will have a group of students (4-10) connected to your session and a couple of your classmate trainee teachers observing the lesson. Your tutor will also be online to observe the class and provide help where necessary. You’ll learn how to manage the platform, divide students into groups (‘breakout rooms’) and conduct all sorts of fun, dynamic activities, covering speaking, reading, writing, listening, grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation.
How long will it take me to find a job?
Normally two weeks of continued job searching. We run our job finding workshop early-on in the course so you can start looking for jobs before the end of the course.
Do I need a visa?
If you are a European Union citizen then you are free to work and study in any of the EU countries. If you are a non-EU citizen then you can stay up to three months as a tourist and you are free to study and do private classes during this time. If you would like to stay longer and obtain a work permit, the easiest way to do this is with a student visa, which will allow you to work up to 20 hours per week (which is full time for an English teacher). TEFL Iberia can process a student visa for you, for more detailed information please contact coordination@tefl-iberia.com.
I can’t attend because I’m in a different timezone. Will there be different timetables?
Yes, we can open up new groups with different timetables based on demand. A provisional timetable for North American students would be 15.00-21.30 Spanish time. Contact coordination@tefl-iberia.com to make a request.
What is the average cost of living in Barcelona?
You can expect to pay 500-550€ for a quality double room in a shared flat in the city centre, then about 140€/week on food and entertainment – this money will stretch quite far as Barcelona can be very cheap compared to the UK / US / Canada / Australia.
