120-HOUR COMBINED TESOL CERTIFICATION

Our combined TEFL/TESOL course blends self-paced online study with eight days of teaching practice at one of our training centers. You first study English teaching principles and methods, then apply your knowledge with actual EFL/ESL students under trainer guidance.

This flexible format is ideal for those who want practical teaching experience but cannot attend a four-week onsite course because of work commitments, time, or budget. It includes the same core training components as our onsite program and leads to 120-hour TEFL/TESOL certification. Observed teaching practice strengthens your employment prospects and may support applications where documented practical experience is required.

The program comprises 120 hours, increasing to 170 hours with your free specialization. Graduates may choose one 50-hour online course: Teaching Business English, Teaching Young Learners, or Teaching TOEFL/IELTS Preparation. A specialization broadens your teaching skills and may improve your earning potential substantially.

The course also includes full career support. We help you prepare your résumé/CV and cover letter, provide school and recruiter information, and share job leads received by our school. Through professional training, practical experience, and employment guidance, we help you prepare confidently for English teaching opportunities worldwide.

Nairobi is the capital and largest city of Kenya and one of East Africa’s leading centers for business, education, and international activity. With English widely used in education and professional environments, the city offers an ideal setting to develop practical teaching skills and prepare for opportunities in Kenya and abroad.

Nairobi combines the energy of a modern international city with Kenya’s rich culture and natural beauty. From its diverse neighborhoods and business districts to local markets, museums, restaurants, and Nairobi National Park, the city offers a unique environment in which to study and experience life in East Africa.

Through Kenya International Language Institute (KILI), the official iTTi-licensed centre in Nairobi, trainees can complete an internationally recognized 120-Hour TEFL/TESOL Certification. Located in Westlands, the centre provides comfortable classrooms, reliable Wi-Fi, and a convenient learning environment. The onsite program combines TEFL/TESOL theory with a supervised teaching practicum, allowing trainees to gain genuine classroom experience.

Located in Westlands, Nairobi, Kenya International Language Institute (KILI) is the official iTTi-licensed centre for Nairobi, providing internationally recognized TEFL/TESOL training in one of East Africa’s most dynamic cities. The centre offers comfortable classrooms, reliable Wi-Fi, and a professional learning environment, with a convenient location close to Nairobi’s business district and suitable for both students and working professionals.

Our 120-Hour Onsite TEFL/TESOL Certification combines structured theoretical training with a supervised teaching practicum, giving trainees the opportunity to develop real classroom experience before completing their certification. Throughout the program, participants build essential skills in lesson planning, classroom management, teaching methodology, and working effectively with English learners at different proficiency levels.

The program is designed for recent graduates, working professionals, current teachers, and anyone preparing to pursue English-teaching opportunities in Kenya or overseas. Trainees receive practical guidance, feedback, and support throughout their training, helping them develop greater confidence and strengthen their classroom performance.

Beyond certification, students also benefit from career support through iTTi, including guidance on preparing a strong teaching CV and application documents, access to resources for teaching abroad, and practical information about international English-teaching opportunities.
