We decided to start Teacher Fuel after working as English, ESL and TEFL teachers for the last decade. We were often shocked at the lack of resources many institutes and centers had for teachers wanting to break into education as English teachers-

The amount of time wasted on looking up supplementary material was staggering!

In response, we started sharing our resources with our staff and were surprised by the encouraging feedback we got. After taking a step away from teaching full-time, we decided to open our marketplace!

T-Fuel is all about giving you the tools required for ESL, English and TEFL classrooms without having to spend precious hours scouring for scraps.

We never shy away from a challenge and are dedicated to giving teachers complete and convenient resources so you can have that little more fuel to teach your next lesson or inspire that tricky student.
