Hi everone
Can you help me? I’m a little confused.
I have a BA in English Linguistics. I’m not a native English speaker. My goal is to build a career in English teaching and language training. I’m planning to get a TEFL certificate, and I also want to build a strong CV. I have some basic experience at the moment, and I’m working on gaining more.
My question is: what certifications would actually add strong value to my CV for teaching, language training, or this field in general?
I thought about getting a Microsoft Office Specialist certification. It’s definitely a strong certificate, but I’m not sure how much it would really help me as an English trainer. If I were aiming for an administrative role, I’d probably get it without hesitation.
What do you think? Is it worth getting, or would it be better to focus on other certifications that are more relevant to teaching? Are there any other respected certifications that would make my CV stronger in this field?
