Program Reviews

The course was incredibly intensive. There were many things I learned that I’d never learned before. The classes were fascinating and deeply introspective, and forced me to think in ways I’d never before imagined I could. A great course.
The site requires me to type at least 400 characters, and I shall acquiesce with pleasure. The teaching opportunities in the schools were amazing, and the students couldn’t have been more cooperative. These were incredible learning opportunities for us, and what we learned fundamentally changed our entire outlook on teaching.
The theoretical aspects of the class were deeply philosophical, and did so much more than simply educate us. Needless to say, my psyche had been irrevocably shaken.
My classmates were cool too.

The programme is good. The teacher is excellent with years of experience. The accomodation provided by the institute is fine.There were participants from about 8 countries.It also ensured maximum cross cultural exposure to the learners.I recommend it to all who want to be a teacher. The participants most of them had diverse experience. Some of them were teachers with years of experience. It helped person like me. This programme contrary to popular belief is not an easy one. You have to work really hard to earn this certification. There are alot of coursework, presentations and live teaching assignments in reputed schools. So think before you enroll. If you can work hard then it is a great programme to do. Good luck all future participants.... !!

I liked the experience of learning the different techniques and most of all making friends. It was a good experience teaching in Thai schools.The trainer showed us different methods and it was interesting doing a peer teach.The most fun experience was learning new stuff daily and travelling. It taught me independence and to work in groups.I loved the fun classes. It was nice meeting people from all over the world and I think that was the best part .

I came to TEFL course with high expectations, and unfortunately the course didn't meet my expectations.

I worked as a teacher for some time, in different countries too. And I came with great expectations to grow, learn new things and be inspired, that didn't happened.

It doesn't mean it was bad. It was a good experience, and I've learned new structures of lesson plan that I didn't know before, that was good. I met incredible people, my colleagues in class. And had an amazing time at the schools during practice. Simply loved it.

It has been such an amazing 3 weeks. So many memories made which I will cherish forever. The course is really intensive so don’t take it lightly. There’s a lot of things to learn and cover. Thank you to our trainer Adi for being so amazing and great at what she does, my classmates who have been so much fun to be with and thank you, Pak, for all the support. Thank you ACT !

PROs
I found our instructor, Adi, and my peers amazing. Quality of instruction was fun, creative, and informative. The methods worked well during our teaching practice.

CONs:
NOT ENOUGH TIME! There is a lot of info needed in teaching and 3 weeks is not enough. My peers and I were often exhausted or unwell because of the intensity of it. I wish the upper management would understand that they are providing a learning service to people, not programming robots.

Over all - I loved this course recommend it.

To begin with they were really supportive in the class, the hotel management, the travel support and everything else too. It was a nice experience to learn here. The activities planned were good and made everyone active. It was a very intensive course and prepared me to be a teacher. We had to work really hard and improve. As we say in TEFL " from caterpillar to butterfly" it's quite relatable now. Although, the job assistance was not upto the mark. They did not give us enough options. The course is over today, and hardly any of us have got jobs. So it will be really very helpful if they could assist us better agencies, and job portals.

We had our classes for more than 8 hours. Always with a postponed lunch break and rest of the day we had to prepare our lesson plans for the next day Back to back.
The classes were not properly divided. Breaks we’re postponed and sometimes were delayed.
There was more focus over Natives and not over non natives.
Faculty stressed to use Accents to everybody which makes no sense. Partial.l, demotivating and made no sense.

This is my first experience abroad for a course and I did not really know what to expect. I met many people of different nationalities and even communities from our own country. Even though all were very different there was something about each, one could relate to which was the ability and willingness to learn something new and also love for teaching. This TEFL course was very intensive and quite tiring. But, it brought everyone closer, doing assignments etc together. It became very enjoyable as we got to know so many people so well. We also learned a lot and exchanged a lot of thoughts and ideas.

This TEFL program is really helpful to those who want to improve their teaching skills. You will learn the methodologies of teaching for all age levels.This 120 hours (3 weeks) program was so much fun,interesting and very helpful
I really loved it.❤ you will see a massive change in yourself once you get into this TEFL program. It literally helps you become a professional one. They also help you in job assisting. Miss Pak,(who's a staff of management in ACT bangkok ) was really nice and kind enough to help you with everything you want. And the trainer and the co-trainees were so lovely and supportive. This TEFL program has brought me a huge amount of confidences and great opportunities to work as the best teacher. I was like a caterpillar on the first day (when i joined this course) and now..as i have finished this course,i feel like i have become a butterfly. I am so glad that i chose the right thing by doing this TEFL program.And also, i have got a job while pursuing this course. And this is one of the best thing ever.I am so happy and satisfied with this TEFL in-class program.

The course was really good for me, I had no previous experience with teaching and now I feel much more confident and prepared to apply everything I saw during this 3 weeks. I had the chance to meet and work with people from different countries and that makes the experience even more rewarding. We had a lot of fun during our learning process. The staff were really nice to us and always ready to help.
