TEFL Courses in India

Can learners in India study TEFL online with LCT?

Yes. Learners in India can study London College of Teachers TEFL/TESOL programmes online, subject to the entry requirements of the selected course. The right level depends on your experience, intended teaching setting and the requirements of the employer or country where you plan to work.

TEFL can develop practical knowledge for teaching English to speakers of other languages, but it should not be treated as a universal licence to teach abroad. Employers and immigration authorities may also require a degree, teaching experience, a regulated teaching credential, document attestation or other evidence.

Before relying on TEFL for employment

What you should verify

  • The minimum degree and qualification requirements in the destination country
  • The employer's preferred TEFL hours, experience and native/non-native English criteria
  • Visa, work-permit, attestation and document requirements
  • Whether the intended role requires a separate teacher licence or regulated credential
For school teaching in India: A private TEFL qualification should not be assumed to replace B.Ed., teacher-education or eligibility requirements that may apply to regulated school roles. Check the vacancy, school policy and relevant authority for the exact position.
