Most schools or ESL academies overseas invariably look for one—it is their default question. They don’t seem to particularly know why, just that it is a requirement.

The TESOL certificate is simply an indication that you have had some training on being an ESL teacher. This requirement stemmed from a flood of unqualified “native speakers” in the industry who knew little about teaching language.

Now, some countries such as S. Korea, China, Thailand,   require one for any teacher seeking an ESL teaching job in the country.It would be a good idea to get one—it will be your ticket into the show. Even with a master’s in teaching English (TESOL), and a PhD in the area of education, potential employers still look for that TESOL certificate.A TESOL certificate is a relatively low-cost investment when you consider the returns - a jumpstart into one of the most exciting, flexible, and lucrative careers possible.
