Online TEFL Certification (120-Hour)
Step-by-Step Enrollment Guide
Welcome to the start of your journey as an English language educator! Our goal is to make the enrollment process for our 120-Hour TEFL course, focused on TEFL with Islamic Integration, smooth and transparent.
How the 120-Hour Course Works
Our 120-hour Premier Online ESL Teacher Training Course is delivered fully online, allowing you to study anytime and from anywhere, on any device. The course is self-paced and flexible, making it easy to fit your studies around existing commitments.
The programme includes video lessons, quizzes, and assignments designed to develop core English language teaching skills, including lesson planning, classroom management, and a dedicated module on teaching English online. Throughout the course, learners receive academic support from a personal tutor who is an experienced ESL/TEFL educator, guided by professional Amanah (responsibility).
Learners have six (6) months to complete the course. While most complete it within 10–12 weeks, the pace is entirely flexible. Paid extensions are available if additional time is required.
Upon successful completion, participants are awarded an institution-issued Certificate of Completion.
As a newly established programme, this course is currently offered as an independent ESL/TEFL teacher training programme and is not yet accredited by an external awarding or regulatory body.
Participants who successfully complete the programme will receive an institution-issued Certificate of Completion confirming fulfilment of all course requirements.
The programme has been developed to provide comprehensive training in English language teaching methodology, lesson planning, classroom management, and online teaching practices.
As the programme develops, the institution intends to pursue external accreditation with a recognised awarding body in a future phase.
