A new income stream, with the teaching taken care of
Demand for qualified English teachers keeps growing, and so does demand for the training behind it. As a TEFL UK partner you can offer recognised TEFL qualifications to your community without hiring trainers or running a course yourself.
Recognised qualifications
Offer the full TEFL UK range, including our Level 5 TEFL, a regulated qualification awarded by TQUK and listed on Ofqual's register.
A simple fee model
You set the price for your learners and pay us a fee for each one you enrol. What you charge above that is yours.
No trainers needed
Every course is taught, marked and quality-assured by TEFL UK's qualified tutors, so you don't need teacher trainers or assessors of your own.
Support from day one
You'll have a named contact at TEFL UK, plus course information and marketing materials to help you promote the courses locally.
Any course in the TEFL UK range
Choose the courses that suit your learners. Many partners start with one or two and add more as demand grows.
168-hour Level 5 TEFL
Our flagship qualification, awarded by TQUK and regulated by Ofqual. The strongest option for learners who want the most widely accepted certificate.
120-hour TEFL
The industry-standard entry qualification that most schools and online employers ask for.
Specialist courses
Shorter courses such as teaching young learners, Business English and teaching online, ideal for CPD or upselling.

A partner organisation in Azerbaijan
One of our partners in Azerbaijan introduces local English teachers to TEFL UK courses and enrols them with us. TEFL UK's tutors then deliver and assess the course and issue the certificates. Their teachers gain an internationally recognised qualification, and the partner can offer it without employing trainers or building a course of its own.
Backed by TQUK and Ofqual
Our Level 5 TEFL is awarded by TQUK (Training Qualifications UK), an Awarding Organisation regulated by Ofqual, the body that regulates qualifications in England. TEFL UK is the TQUK-approved centre, and because our own tutors deliver and assess every course, quality assurance stays with us. Learners can check the qualification on the official Ofqual register.
