Let's Talk About Trust

The internet is full of "R200 TEFL courses" and scams. Here is the truth: A cheap certificate usually isn't accepted for work visas.

The "Cheap" Trap

Many budget courses are not accredited, have no unique ID number, and are rejected by embassies.

The TEFL China Promise

We are a registered company. Our certificates are verifiable and have successfully processed hundreds of visas.
