If you are new to TEFL and are looking for a TEFL course then you will see a lot of people (usually the course providers themselves) recommend that you take an accredited TEFL course. But TEFL accreditation ranges from totally fake to somewhat fake and still kind of questionable since even the self-proclaimed best ones are not actually affiliated with TEFL or colleges.
Like there is one large well-known older company out there that boasts that they are accredited by a government institution which sounds impressive, but if you actually look up that accreditation they actually accredit all kinds of programs ranging from welding to banking to fashion to pastoral training. So they are not experts in TEFL and that accreditation comes with a price tag of $2500 a year.
