Hi,
I'm currently an ALT. Lately, I've been thinking about moving past my ALT career and pursuing other teaching careers in Japan. Ideally, I'd like to work at some kind of international elementary or even junior/senior highschool, but I lack the credentials. I only have my Bachelors degree, which is in Psychology, not even in Education.
Most schools I see require a TESOL or CELTA certificate. What's the main difference between the two? Does anyone have any recommended programs/universities I can enroll in? I'm grateful for any tips or information you can provide!
I'm currently enrolled in The TEFL Academy's Level 5 TEFL course, which says its the same level as CELTA/Trinity CertTESOL but I kind of assumed that was just a marketing strategy. Is that good enough?
Thank you for your time and information!
