HOW IT WORKS
TEFL / TESOL Online by OnTESOL
World-Renowned TEFL / TESOL Online Since 2003!
In partnership with Toronto-based Coventry House International, OnTESOL adapted Coventry’s Trinity CertTESOL and TESL Canada in-class syllabus to offer quality online TESOL / TESL / TEFL certification courses that are recognized for English teaching jobs in Canada, online and abroad.
The 120-hour TESOL Certificate offers the same level of training in adult TESOL theory and methodology training as an in-class Trinity CertTESOL or CELTA course. The 168-hour Hybrid TEFL Certificate combines the advanced 120-hour with additional live training and our most popular specialist courses. The 250-hour TESOL Diploma is highly recommended for experienced ESL teachers looking to further their career.
OnTESOL further developed the first of its kind live 10-hour Lesson Planning Workshop and its own set of specialist courses for those planning to teach English in specific classroom situations such as young learners , Business English , IELTS Preparation Courses , and online .

How Do the OnTESOL Courses Work?
1. Self-Paced Asynchronous and Semi-Asynchronous Live Options
The main benefit of studying TEFL / TESOL online is that you can take the time you need to grasp all the concepts in the TESOL course.
Each module will open in sequence as your progress through the course. You will pass the course and receive your TEFL / TESOL certificate after passing all the assignments and exams. We don’t count the time you take to study each module and there aren’t any limits on each module (The only time limit is the course deadline). The self-paced asynchronous format offers you more flexibility to study from the textbook and videos, review previous feedback, ask questions to your tutor, and submit your assignments when you are ready.
NEW! 10-hour Live Lesson Planning Workshop: Add the live workshop to your online TESOL / TEFL course to attend live Zoom lectures, ask questions, and participate in group activities with other trainees in preparation for the lesson plan assignments.
2. Get Personalized Tutor Support
A personal tutor will be assigned to mark your lesson planning assignments, provide you with feedback, and answer your questions.
All our tutors are approved by TESL Canada . You can contact your online TESOL / TEFL tutor through your student portal at any time to ask questions related to the course materials or to request more feedback on your lesson plan assignments. Our format allows you to take the time you need to engage in an academic conversation with your tutor until you understand the material and you are comfortable with submitting the next assignment.
3. Complete a Teaching Practice Module Anywhere in the World
You can complete a separate Practicum module anywhere in the world after the online TESOL course. In this module, you will get to observe real classes and also teach classes with real ESL students. There isn’t any deadline to complete this module, so you can graduate with a TEFL / TESOL certificate and upgrade your credentials when you are ready.
Why Study TEFL / TESOL Online with OnTESOL?
The lesson planning skills that English teachers learn in a quality TESOL, TESL, TEFL course will have long-lasting impacts on their careers. Knowing how to use industry standard lesson planning frameworks such as Presentation- Practice-Production (PPP), Engage Study Activate (ESA), Task-based Learning (TBL), and Test-Teach-Test (TTT) is a vital skill to adapt to any classroom situation in the world. For this reason, a quality TESOL certification course should teach you to supplement the ESL textbook or create full ESL lesson plans from scratch.
While there are hundreds of online TESOL / TEFL / TESL courses offered worldwide, most courses provide basic introductory knowledge through semi or fully automated assignments instead of practical skills through advanced lesson planning assignments with feedback from an accredited and experienced tutor.
At OnTESOL, our mission is to provide trainees the skills they need to become reflective, adaptive, and independent English teachers. Our TESL Canada-approved and CELTA-equivalent online TEFL / TESOL courses offer practical lab assignments that require trainees to complete detailed lesson plans using various frameworks.
The internationally recognized online TESOL / TEFL courses offered by OnTESOL include tutor feedback and support, all the required textbooks, and a wide variety of videos for trainees to watch at their own pace. For those who prefer a more interactive and live experience, OnTESOL offers additional workshop-style live lectures via Zoom.
Furthermore, OnTESOL graduates can take a separate Practicum module in Canada or Stand-Alone anywhere in the world to upgrade their credentials with certified teaching experience.
Last but not least, OnTESOL offers free job assistance , including a master list of schools, resume support, and job board.
