I thoroughly enjoyed the TEFL experience - the material was great, practical and relevant which is beneficial to teaching English as a foreign language. The course balanced a whole range of things from grammar right through to classroom management which was so valuable. Undeniably, the assistance of the people from the TEFL Academy which included admin and tutors was exceptional with a quick turnover time and always so willing to assist. The feedback on assignments was always constructive. A great experience!

The Level 5 TEFL course was a very comprehensive and challenging course, definitely worth more than the money put in. It gave you access to world class content which are not readily accessible anywhere else and presented these in very organised units. I found the numerous links and further reading articles very helpful too.The assignments will push you to research and you'd be grateful you did because at the end of the day, you'd be more knowledgeable, more professional and ready to take the world of ESL teaching. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

What a fun way to learn a new skill! Coming from a traditional teaching background I've learned so many new skills to enhance my teaching. The course material was presented in a simple and straight forward manner that made it easy to follow(considering I completed my original degree in 2002, this was important to me). The assignments were challenging but by following the instructions provider it was easy to complete and pass on my first try. I would definitely recommend this course to anyone looking for a way to challenge themselves or anyone looking for an adventure. After completing the course I received many helpful tips on Cv writing and job opportunities to take me forward on my TEFL journey. Thank you TEFL Academy for making me a better teacher!

Being in one of the hardest hit industries in the country, tourism, I deemed it necessary to change direction, and after much research The TEFL Academy course seemed to be the best value. I was not mistaken!
It is an intensive course covering quite a bit of grammar and writing skill. The emphasis is always that we do not need to create the next Shakespeare, but to give our learners to become confident to use the language productively. I loved that the course was performance based and of some substance, and not just a certificate of attendance.

It was great to be able to study in my own time and from home. This allowed for the flexibility that I need in my life. The TEFL certification will allow me to work online from anywhere that I am. This is a huge advantage.
Some of the chapters were really interesting and engaging, others you simply have to get through.
I found it a little unclear at the end when and how I was supposed to get my certificate, and in fact still have not received anything. However the assignments and tests were well instructed and feedback was clear and useful.

Great course to do for anyone even if you don’t have any teaching background. I found the course challenging but fun and it helped my gain valuable skills. Very well thought out and interactive units and assignments. I enjoyed this course a lot as I was able to work in my own time which is great for anyone who is working or studying. I would highly recommend this course to anyone wanting to teach English overseas. I learnt a lot about my own language which I never even heard of. I look forward to the future adventures I will pursue because of this course.

Deciding which TEFL course to study was difficult, after all there are so many available. When I found The TEFL Academy and saw that their qualifications are the only ones in the world that are certified in the both the USA and the UK, I knew my choice had been made. Since completing the course, I have no doubt that I made the right choice. The course was comprehensive and well designed, the assignments were demanding but satisfying, and the in classroom portion was eye-opening and very helpful. I would definitely recommend doing the 20 hour in classroom training, even though it was challenging, it provided more detailed and personal information than that offered online. The TEFL Academy is the way to go in my opinion.
