About This Video

In this video, I break down what I consider the 3 best Level 5 TEFL/TESOL certificate options for 2026—especially if your goal is to teach English abroad or online and you want a course that includes a real teaching practicum. I’m comparing Trinity CertTESOL, Cambridge CELTA, and International TEFL Academy (ITA) from the perspective of someone who has actually taken and tested all three. That matters, because on paper a lot of TEFL courses look similar, but the training experience, feedback, and practical teaching component can feel completely different once you’re in it. I walk you through the key differences you should pay attention to before you spend your money: how “hands-on” the practicum really is, what kind of support you get, and which course makes the most sense depending on whether you’re aiming for a more standardized, in-classroom pathway (like CELTA/CertTESOL) or you want a structured program with guidance that can fit different lifestyles and budgets (like ITA). If you’re still unsure which direction to go, I also point you to my free course guide and my survey—because choosing the right TEFL course is way easier when it’s matched to your specific country, timeline, and teaching goals.
