What Are Filipino Teachers?【Courses & Teachers】

✅ Who Are Filipino Teachers?

Filipino teachers are professional English instructors in the Philippines who have mastered English as their second language.
Since English is an official language in the Philippines, subjects from elementary through university are taught in English, leading to exceptionally high English proficiency nationwide.

The Philippines consistently ranks #1 among non-native English-speaking countries in global Business English proficiency rankings (Malaysia ranks #2), making Filipino teachers internationally recognized for their language skills and teaching ability.


✅ Why Are Filipino Teachers So Popular?

  • High English proficiency: Capable of teaching not only daily conversation but also business and academic English

  • Friendly and approachable: Warm, cheerful personalities help students feel relaxed—especially beginners

  • Clear, neutral accent: Easy to understand, ideal for learners of all levels

  • Affordable pricing: Compared to native-speaking teachers from Western countries, Filipino teachers offer excellent value for one-on-one instruction

Because of these advantages, the Philippines has become one of the world’s leading destinations for English study, especially for students from Asia, the Middle East, and Latin America.
