EXETER, Devon, UK, Nov. 29, 2013 /Christian Newswire/ -- Christian TEFL trains Christians to teach English and so help spread the Gospel. Christian TEFL's professional training is designed to equip Christians to teach English as a foreign language (TEFL) which then opens up many diverse, international opportunities.

With an estimated 1 billion people learning English worldwide and good English skills seen as a way out of poverty, English teachers are welcomed across the globe. A qualification in teaching English can be a passport to the world, granting missionaries international access to many countries traditionally out of bounds to evangelism.

"There are many reasons why teaching English is a great missionary tool; firstly teaching English is very portable since there is such demand worldwide and secondly, so many lessons are built on sharing personal information and experiences. This means TEFL offers an in-built platform for meaningful communication and the sharing of faith." -- Louisa Walsh, Christian TEFL

Teaching English is not just for those planning to travel to a foreign land. There are many opportunities to teach English closer to home. Visitors and immigrants are granted a better chance of success if they are able to learn English.

"I am currently serving a group of churches; teaching English to local Pastors to assist them in expanding their work overseas. I am also teaching in a local school which is providing me with teaching experience and the opportunity to meet and engage with people from all sorts of backgrounds and positions in society." -- Gideon Maybury, Christian TEFL trainee
