Start 2020 off with a bang!You’ve taken the first step in an adventure that will change your life, as well as those of others!
Teaching English as a foreign language (TEFL) is a rewarding experience, and a fulfilling way to discover other destinations and cultures. Studying and working abroad is also a great achievement that you can proudly list on your CV/resumé. We have options for both degree and non-degree holders. Cambodia is the ONLY country in SE Asia where you can LEGALLY teach without a bachelor’s degree, and so signing up to our ‘Course plus Placement’ package is an excellent choice. Destination TEFL, Koh Samui opened in 2011 as Samui TEFL, on the beautiful tropical island of Koh Samui, Thailand. With expansion in mind, the natural progression was to open another training centre in Cambodia – a land where ancient and modern worlds collide to create a unique destination. So Destination TEFL, Siem Reap is our new venture! At either location you’ll find the same quality 140-hour TEFL / TESOL course with highly skilled and passionate trainers, and teacher practicum in local schools, businesses and NGOs. Whichever TEFL destination you choose to do the course, you can be assured of a spectacular location. Choose Koh Samui for a tropical beach vibe, or Siem Reap for its rich culture and proximity to the world heritage site of Angkor Wat Temple Complex. Not sure which country you’d like to see? Why not visit our programs page and view our ‘See 2 countries’ options, whereby you can do your course in one country, and be placed in another, offering the best of both worlds! - Study Thailand, Teach Cambodia (degree and non-degree holders) - Study Thailand, Teach Thailand (degree holders only) - Study Thailand, Teach Vietnam (degree holders only) - Study Cambodia, Teach Cambodia (degree and non-degree holders) - Study Cambodia, Teach Thailand (degree holders only) - Study Cambodia, Teach Vietnam (degree holders only) Or … you can do the course only and let the world be your oyster as to where you decide to venture.

About the course
Samui TEFL and Destination TEFL's 4 week intensive TEFL/TESOL course on the island of Koh Samui, Thailand, or in Siem Reap, Cambodia offers both practical training and classroom sessions to equip you with the knowledge and skills required to teach English to non-native speakers.
The TEFL course on Samui or in Siem Reap is 140hrs, 4 weeks, Monday to Friday, and additional hours will need to be done in your own time for resourcing, studying and planning. Your TEFL certificate is for the 140h course, including observed practical lessons. This is the preferred requirement for schools worldwide, and they are now reluctant to accept online courses or the shorter 60hr courses. You receive your certificate on the last day of the course, along with a letter of recommendation and a detailed report to show prospective employers.
All of the learning is done hands on through games and interactive activities. You will never just be lectured to, but will always be involved in every lesson. The theory in the TEFL / TESOL course is presented by the trainer using games, activities and strategies that you will then be able to use in your own teaching, allowing you to build your portfolio of activities and teaching tools from day one. Your observed teacher pracs will start from week two, when you’ll be able to apply these techniques yourself.
We limit our numbers in our TEFL course to small groups, so that we can offer personal assistance with lesson planning and any area you may need help with such as grammar etc. Our practical training includes both youth and adult lessons, at various schools and businesses around the island. Should your course be over a school holiday, we’ll use the same children, but teach them in the form of a summer camp.
For more information on the TESOL course content, see our 'course' page
Upon successful completion of our TEFL 4-week TEFL / TESOL course, you will receive a TEFL / TESOL certificate which is recognised worldwide. The Samui TEFL / Destination TEFL course meets and exceeds the basic international criteria, as we offer 140 hours of classroom time as well as observed teaching practice.

"Samui TEFL has given me an extremely strong foundation to begin my journey as an English Language Teacher. I have no doubt that in years to come, I will still be making references to the broad range of knowledge that I have learnt on the course. Kathryn is an extremely competent trainer, who shares her invaluable knowledge and experiences with all." - Nicole, Samui TEFL graduate
