Our certificate is equivalent to a Cambridge CELTA and Trinity CertTESOL, but also includes training in teaching English to children (the vast majority of teaching jobs in Thailand) as well as Thai language and Thai culture training.

Our graduates range in age from 18 to 70, and are usually between 22 and 50 years old. Typical classes have a mix of males and females from a variety of countries, and backgrounds. On completion you can teach English as a Foreign Language across Thailand and throughout the world. We strive to provide a useful and effective TEFL teacher training program. Our organization also hires dozens of English teachers every year for placement in schools throughout Chiang Mai and Northern Thailand.
