    You will find alot of places offering TEFL courses on the internet, where you can earn your certificate in a single weekend. These are usually scams and your "certificate" isn't worth the paper it's written on. Basically if it sounds too good to be true, it usually is :P

    I'd suggest going for a CELTA degree rather than TEFL. It is more concrete and is globally recognised. However it can take up to a month to earn and will cost you around a grand, but at least you can bask in the knowledge that you are being sufficiently trained and qualified to teach english. Here is a list of legit schools in Ireland that have a license to confer CELTA degrees. http://acels.ie.somedomain.ie/Search.aspx?location=Dublin

    If you want to know more, there is an excellent thread in the "teaching & lecuring" forum under the "edu" tab.
