TESOL stands for Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages. It refers to the teaching of English to people for whom it is not their first language, whether abroad or in English-speaking countries, although it is most often used to refer to language teaching in English-speaking countries. The field of TESOL represents one of the fastest growing educational fields in the world. The field presents thousands of excellent professional opportunities to teach English abroad on-site or online in every corner of the world to English speakers who have obtained their TESOL certification.
