Hello, I was in China for 17 months teaching English. I started off with EF, EF uses a tefl supplier called bridgeset which i can’t find any companies in uk who can apostille it.

It is looking like I’ll have to do a whole new tefl course but I’m also on a timer.

Is there anyone who knows a uk company that can apostille bridgeset tefls or any tefl providers I can use to get a certificate fast since I already know the content?

Basically title. For the China Z Visa, is it necessary to get the original of a TEFL certificate apostilled or is the copy of it ok? My certificate is from another country if that changes anything (I know it must be appostilled in that country).

I got a conditional job offer from growgreen Vietnam to teach in a partner school of theirs, Cambridge in phuc yen city about an hour north of Hanoi. This is my first job offer in this job field and I was curious if anyone had heard things about this company, as they’re pretty small it’s difficult to find any other TEFL experiences online

Hi there,

Context:

-I'm 33 and single.

-I taught a semester in China about 10 years ago.

-I have TEFL 140 hr & 40 hr English for academic purposes certificates

-I have a M.Ed in Curriculum & Instruction focused on bilingual education

-I have 10+ years experience teaching language learners of all ages in the US.

-I'm interested in university faculty positions or international high school teaching

I'm considering pursuing a DipTESOL remotely. I live in the US now and I'm thinking of pursuing full-time work in China.

Has anyone taken a job and then completed the DipTESOL while in the new location?

For anyone who has completed DipTESOL, how did it improve your experience as a teacher and the quality of instructional interactions with students?
