Benefits of Taking a TEFL Course with a Friend

Arriving in Bangkok with someone you know makes the first few weeks much easier. You get a study partner for lesson planning and practice teaching. You have someone to share accommodation with. You have a familiar face as you settle into a new country.

Many of our graduates arrived together. They went on to teach at the same schools or in the same parts of Bangkok.

Our cohorts stay small, with a maximum of ten students. Coming with a friend still lets you mix with the whole group and meet people from around the world.

What Your Course Fee Includes

Whether you enroll on your own or as a group, every student gets the same course package:

  • 120 hours of TQUK approved TEFL training
  • Observed teaching practice in real Bangkok classrooms
  • Guaranteed job placement support with vetted partner schools
  • Visa and work permit guidance from our in house team
  • Access to our Bangkok teacher network and alumni community
  • Certificate recognised by schools and employers across Thailand and internationally

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Can we enroll on different course start dates and still get the discount?

    All members of your group must enroll on the same course start date to qualify. If you have a specific situation, contact us and we will see what we can do.

  • Is there a maximum group size?

    We cap each cohort at ten students. The largest group we can take on one start date is ten. For bigger groups, contact us and we will spread you across dates.

  • Does the discount apply to the deposit?

    We apply the group discount to the total course fee. Your admissions contact confirms the payment schedule and the discounted amounts once your group application is confirmed.

  • What if one person in our group drops out before the course starts?

    If someone drops out and your group falls below the qualifying size, we adjust the discount to match. We always contact you first to talk through the options.

  • Is the Essential TEFL course internationally recognised?

    Yes. The course leads to a 120 hour TQUK approved certificate. TQUK (Training Qualifications UK) is a UK awarding organisation regulated by Ofqual, and schools, universities and language institutions in Thailand and across the world recognise it.
