About American TEFL Institute
We are an internationally accredited online TEFL and TESOL certification provider, dedicated to training world-class English teachers and making high-quality TEFL education accessible to everyone.
Building Better English Teachers Since 2015
American TEFL Institute was founded with a single conviction: that the best TEFL certification should not cost a fortune. Too many aspiring teachers were being priced out of accredited qualifications by providers charging $500-$1,000 for courses we knew could be delivered at a fraction of the cost.
We set out to build the most comprehensive, most pedagogically rigorous, and most competitively priced TEFL certification available — without compromising on accreditation, tutor quality, or career support.
Today, American TEFL Institute has certified over 25,000 teachers who are teaching English in 80+ countries across Asia, the Middle East, Africa, and beyond.
