Amazing course from start to finish. Excellent support all the way through from the staff. The company makes you feel part of the family the moment you walk through the door. The skills you learn from the valued professionals will equip you for a career in teaching.
The company has many, very good connections to high value schools in the country. The course gives you real time teaching experience at different schools in the area.

Extremely useful and practice oriented

The program is incredibly well designed and gave me the foundation for starting a new career. Like many people I fell in love with Vietnam having been here for some years during covid. I was looking for opportunities to stay here permanently after the borders opened. I found Ninja and thought it would be useful to develop that skill set. The program has a methodology that's a truly strong foundation to build on. It's heavy in the first weeks but there is a lot of ground to cover. During the final week when recruiters came in it was great to see how eagerly graduates from this program are sought after. The support throughout was more than professional. They know what they are doing. I've felt supported throughout. Life in Vietnam is an adventure and it's a safe and wonderful place to look for another career. I strongly recommend it.

Ninja TEFL Academy

To keep short, don't listen what reddit has to say. Although the course does come with a heavy cost, it gave me a solid foundation needed for teaching and to settle comfortably in Vietnam. Definitely do not half ass or expect everything without putting in any effort. This goes for anything you do in life, if you want something then you have to show that you deserve it. Endless support was also provided throughout and even after the course had ended with career advice, assistance with accommodations and just general questions regarding Vietnam. It's also provided me with a community of like-minded individuals who I now see as my new friends. Cheers!

Ninja Teacher Alumni

I was extremely satisfied with Ninja Teacher Academy. The course instruction gave me the tools to become a successful ESL teacher in Vietnam. The staff is well educated in the field and support is beyond exceptional. I felt very comfortable coming to Vietnam and attending the 4 week in class TEFOL course with Ninja Teacher. Not only were they able to provide in class support but they were able to provide personal one on one support as well. They guided and helped with job placement as well. Going the extra mile !!

What was your funniest moment?
Learning to be a kid again during role play. Each of had to teach a lesson while the rest of the class was assigned a student role. This was for student management and we were naughty, shy, talkative, inattentive and quite obnoxious but all in good fun.

THE BEST way to jump into teaching English abroad

I'm sure many people who decide to teach English abroad wonder if they will be good enough to do so. I was no different, which is why I wanted to do an in-class TEFL.

Ninja Teacher went above and beyond all of my expectations. Not only did they give me the tools I needed to succeed as a teacher, they also helped me settle into a foreign country and gave me advice whenever I needed it.

Claire, the teacher trainer, was absolutely amazing. I'm going to keep using the lessons she taught me wherever I go.

What is your advice to future travelers on this program?
Take it seriously. The course is pretty front-loaded, so don't expect an easy ride. And buy work clothes in your home country --especially if you are "western sized".

Quickly becoming a foremost name in Vietnam's ESL teaching community.

I am rather a skeptical person in terms of if "something sounds too good to be true". However, in this case Ninja Teacher do deliver!

Everyone on here has told you how it prepares you for actual practical living in Vietnam, aswell as teaching. So I do not want to dwell on that as it has been said.

I will comment on the fact that Ninja teacher gas such extensive contacts in the ESL teaching field, in Vietnam, that it can easily help you find recruitment. I myself found recruitment through a Ninja Teacher connection and I couldn't be happier with my choice if company and job. I have talked to several teachers who did their TESOL online or through some next academy, and they are not working for the best of companies or schools. Thanks Ninja!

What was your funniest moment?
It is not actually a particular funniest moment. It's just that every expat teacher seems to be connected to Ninja Teacher in a roundabout way!
