TEFL Teacher Training in Bangkok, Thailand

New Teachers are Born in the Classroom

Many schools only hire TEFL graduates who have at least six hours of Observed Teaching Practice with non-English speaking students in real classrooms. This hands-on experience turns teaching theory into practical skills, which are essential to becoming a successful teacher.

Preparing teachers to confidently step into the classroom and engage their students successfully is no small task.

That’s why choosing a professional-level TEFL course—one that includes six Observed Teaching Practice (OTP) sessions—is so important. These practical teaching experiences equip new educators with the essential skills they need to thrive, whether they’re teaching in Thailand or anywhere else around the globe.

Vantage sets itself apart as the only TEFL program based in Thailand to earn this level of recognition. These are international awards, judged among TEFL programs worldwide—from Buenos Aires to Bangkok—and Vantage has won every year since 2018.

Vantage TEFL Certification—Two TEFL Course Options

Option 1: 100% In-Person Vantage In-Class Course

Vantage's 120-hour In-Class Course lasts four weeks and has six key areas of study.

You learn both teaching theory and how to facilitate your lessons through the communicative approach to language teaching—the international standard, which is being adopted by Thailand's Ministry of Education for Thai English teachers kingdom-wide.

 

We strongly believe in learning by doing. In this on-site course, you will teach real students under observation for at least 6 hours in our practicum. 

Vantage was ranked #1 worldwide as the Top TEFL Course in the 2018 Community Choice Awards—and we've been a winner every year since.

Option 2: The Vantage Combined (Hybrid) Course

Vantage's Hybrid Combined Course offers the best of both worlds: 50% online training and 50% in-person teaching practice.

In Phase One, your online study of the coursebook—with full tutor support—will concentrate on teaching theory and best practices. 

 

Then in Phase Two, you will do observed teaching practices (OTPs)--the practicum where you’ll teach non-English speaking students in a real Thai classroom.

The practicum is where your course knowledge is transformed into the teaching skill set you'll need to be successful in the classroom.

Where TEFL Theory Becomes Real Teaching

The practicum—Observed Teaching Practices (OTPs)—is where you turn what you’ve learned into real classroom skills.

At Vantage TEFL, every trainee teaches real non-English speaking students for at least six hours, each session covering a new language topic.

 

After every class, you get personalized feedback from experienced trainers to help you improve fast.

While some other programs only offer 2 or 3 practice sessions, Vantage gives you all 6—because shortcuts don’t make great teachers.
