I enjoyed this course and had no trouble completing the content. The TEFL Academy was generous with its time frame for completion (six months), so I was able to take my time as I was in the process of retiring from my previous career of 25 years. I completed this course with a view to teaching English as a foreign language and traveling, while using the skills that I had developed in my previous career to make me an effective teacher. I found the course thorough and covered everything I believe that I need to find employment as an ESL teacher. The course also gives me the confidence to look at other English language and grammar publications to professionally develop as an ESL teacher. There was a good balance of quizzes throughout the course, and the three assignments were all very different and covered something quite relevant to teaching English. Overall, I recommend this course for anyone looking to get their foot in the door of ESL teaching, and starting with a solid training course.

The TEFL Academy's support is amazing, whenever you wonder or are unsure about something you can just send a message to the tutor support and they will answer all the questions you have.

The program is also easy to follow and interesting to do. It gives you ample resources that you can use when teaching English as a foreign language. The program also teaches you how to ensure that you present classes at the right level to ensure that students can grow and learn English while having fun and learning practical English for everyday situations.

When I enrolled in the TEFL Academy Level 5 course I had very little knowledge of the ESL world. I had done extensive research on ESL courses and finally selected this one. The first Unit felt like Gibberish to me, honestly. I realised I had just stepped into a whole world I did not know existed. How daunting! However, for a long time, I had wanted to do a course in ESL teaching in order to gain the freedom to work from almost anywhere in the world. What I discovered along the way though, proved much more valuable than getting a certificate to benefit career-wise. The course offered so many interesting facts and viewpoints on learning and teaching language, and provided sufficient examples and scenarios for me to get a deeper understanding of the ESL world. The student support and markers were also extremely reliable, prompt and courteous; I always felt at ease making any queries or requests. By the end of the course, I felt very equipped to begin my career in ESL teaching, and I am starting to feel like a part of this wide and curious, open and wonderful world of ESL! I'd certainly recommend this course to anyone who has an interest in ESL teaching - a warm welcome to the ESL world awaits you in the TEFL Academy!

Overall, I highly recommend this course. It offers a thorough and engaging learning experience that is both challenging and rewarding, making it an excellent choice for anyone looking to expand their horizons and prepare for future opportunities in teaching.
