Hi Nina,

Welcome to our forum and thanks for your question. If I understand you correctly you want to know which language certificate is better for you, TOEIC of TOEFL. Have you checked with your potential employer to find out it they have a preference? Since the TOEIC test is for professional people who want to assess their international communication skills, you might want to choose it over the TOEFL exam.

Let me know what you think.
Regards,
Torsten

Hi Sonnete,

Yes there are quite few certificates for ESL/ELT teachers such as CELTA (Certificate in English Language Teaching for Adults), CTEFLA (Certificate in the Teaching of English as a Foreign Language to Adults) and DELTA (Diploma in English Language Teaching for Adults).

Hey Torsten
Could you please explain me the meaning of the abbreviation (TOEIC)? I know the meaning of (TOEFL) but i don't know even the difference between both of them? Thank you so much.
