Hello. I am a native English speaker located in the United States who is looking to become a teacher via Italki.
What are your thoughts on the following organization and the corresponding course (located in the the link below)? Will it, on its own, satisfy the Italki requirements for one to become a professional teacher via Italki? I am referring to the $350 TEFL course via ITTT online. Thanks.

Hi Justin,
You're already free to sign up as a tutor now, so why wait? :)
For the ITTT course, I would write to the italki admins directly instead of posting a discussion. As with any online TEFL course, you need to check if the course is properly accredited (you would be surprised at how many are not accredited, and are actually slapdash courses offered by recruitment agencies pretending to be schools). Checking up on FHSU would be a start; I don't recognise any of its affiliations or accreditations, but they might still be valid. Tell us how your research goes.
