Colombia—the world’s second most biodiverse country.

From rainforests and deserts to snowcapped mountains and endless savannahs, it’s a place of extraordinary landscapes and opportunities. And in just 4 weeks, you can be certified and ready to land teaching in the heart of South America.

This isn’t wishful thinking—it’s a proven path.

Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) makes it possible.

With an internationally recognised TEFL certificate, you can unlock teaching opportunities in every corner of this fascinating country—or work online as a digital nomad, earning from cafés in Medellín, the Caribbean coast, or wherever you choose.

Why now? Because Colombia’s English language industry is booming. With the government’s focus on bilingual education and businesses demanding English for international growth, the need for qualified teachers has never been higher. Even if you’ve never taught before, you can secure rewarding, well-paid roles here in Colombia—or abroad—while immersing yourself in new cultures and building your CV.

There have never been more opportunities in the heart of South America—and it all begins with your TEFL qualification. With our accredited 120-hour TEFL course and personalised job-finding support, you’ll have everything you need to start teaching English abroad or online with confidence.

The idea of exploring Colombia is exciting—but even more exciting is knowing exactly how to make it happen. So, let’s pause the visions about tropical rainforests, Caribbean beaches and, whale watching on the pacific coast, and take a quick look at how we help you get set up to be paid to travel the world.

Hi, I’m Tom – Head TEFL Coach at Precision TEFL.

I help people fund their adventure in Colombia by teaching English. I fell in love with this country the moment I arrived nearly eight years ago — and now I’m passionate about helping others experience the same freedom, culture, and adventure that transformed my life.

I don’t usually call myself an “expert,” but here’s why I know I can guide you:

• Fluent Spanish speaker – I’ve built my life here and understand the culture from the inside out.
• Extensive travel experience – I’ve explored 22 of Colombia’s 32 departamentos, from snow-capped mountains and deserts to tropical rainforests, vast savannahs, and stunning beaches on both the Caribbean and Pacific coasts.
• Diverse teaching background – I’ve taught in public and private schools, language institutes, and given private classes to everyone from four-year-olds to senior executives at Colombia’s top drinks company.
• Entrepreneurial experience – I run my own tutoring business and a thriving English conversation club in my hometown, Ibagué.
• Local know-how – I’ve successfully navigated Colombia’s legal, financial, and bureaucratic processes — so you don’t have to.

I also designed Precision TEFL’s accredited 120-hour TEFL course, built to take you from complete beginner to confident teacher.

Combined, these experiences mean I know exactly how to help you get certified, land work, and start your own paid Colombian adventure.
