Happily certified!

I received my TEFL certificate right after I finished my course preparation and exams. I definitely recommend it in terms of practicity and content, since I could appreciate how well prepared the teaching-topics are, such as the grammar content, that guided me as a tutor on how to effectively structure my classes.

I teach online and my new students constantly ask if I have any teaching background, I even though I have, now having my certificate that approves it is way better and feels adequate.

I encourage you to take your course here.

This is not a course where you only complete tasks and questions. The course is based in different approaches as a teacher, tutor, learning styles, classroom activities and dynamics, and the constant evaluation ensures that you are actually learning.

What was your funniest moment?
A funny moment I had while completing this course was the idea of maybe not finishing ever, but honestly, each lesson encourages you to keep completing the course, as well as the badges as received in the website.
Pros
  • Conveniently useful for teachers with little experience
  • Pretty useful for understanding teaching styles and approachments
Cons
  • The exams are challenging if you don't pay close attention to the lessons

Great Program!

simpleTEFL was a great course, the fully online and flexible nature drew me to it. The course covered a lot of content covering both English fundamentals and classroom strategies. simpleTEFL helped me formalise a lot of the concepts I previously used in my teaching, and makes me much more confident to do this overseas. There were a few small hiccups in the display of the test questions, but that may have just been my web browser's problem. I look forward to using my certification to teach in China and beyond!

What would you improve about this program?
Retaking the checkpoint quizzes was a little frustrating. When I made a single mistake I needed to take the whole thing again. It would be nice only need to retake the incorrect parts.
Pros
  • Fully online
  • Flexible Timing
  • Cheap
Cons
  • N/A

Finally Got Trained Properly Without Spending a Fortune

I went with SimpleTEFL because I needed real teaching credentials without dropping thousands of dollars or spending months in a classroom.

I haven't taught professionally yet, but I wanted to gain solid knowledge before stepping into a classroom. I knew if I wanted to make a career out of this, I couldn't just wing it from day one. Before signing up, I wasn't sure an online course would teach me much. I thought it might just be boring videos and quizzes. But it turned out to be really practical. It taught me how to plan lessons that actually make sense, manage classrooms where students are at different levels, and explain grammar without confusing everyone.

The biggest takeaway was learning to plan around what I want students to learn, rather than just throwing activities together and hoping for the best. Now I feel way more prepared to start teaching. I'm using the certificate to apply for jobs abroad, and honestly, just having a real foundation instead of going in blind is huge.

Way better than figuring it all out through trial and error with actual students.

How I developed my teaching skills using this platform

I chose the simpleTEFL because I wanted to upgrade my teaching and classroom management skills. At first, I was worried about the amount of money to be paid before enrollment and then the duration of the entire study. The course is really informative, captures real-life situations I encountered before, and provides ways to navigate them in the future. I loved the experience because it was very flexible. I could learn in my own time and was given space to be able to finish the program.

The program delivery was top-notch. It was clear, and I can easily reference it because I could download it.

Now, I am planning to use this knowledge and certificate to invest more in my teaching capacity and to advance to a higher teaching position.

Easy to approach, affordable program

I am the person someone with a different job, but I start to got interested in Tefl while looking for English-related certificates, and I was looking for something that wasn't very expensive. I didn't feel that there was much merit in being expensive (because some people graduated from the same major as education.) and this course is what I got through chat gpt. It's affordable, and you can easily take it anytime, anywhere. There was an exam in between, so I could see which part I didn't know and where I should pay a little more attention. If you want to get a certificate at a lower price, I recommend it.
