Amazing course!

I have loved the course! I have learned a lot about how to become a TEFL teacher and the assessments have been super useful. I would totally recommend it! I have learned things that I have never heard about before doing this course. After finishing it, I was able to find a job in just 1 month of doing research and applying to jobs. The course helps a lot on how to teach properly, and how to plan the lessons, making sure about the timing for each activity and so on. It can be done very quickly if you are consistent.

What is your advice to future travelers on this program?
Make sure you do it online to do it from anywhere. Do it as quick as you can so you do not forget about what you have learned already.

My experience with the TEFL Academy

I particularly appreciated
- the excellent organization and presentation of the educational material;
- the focus on important topics in teaching of English as a foreign language΄
- the immediate correction of the assignments I wrote;
- the immediate answers of TEFL's collaborators, when I had some questions and sent them an email.
For all the aforementioned reasons I would like to highly recommend the TEFL courses. I believe that TEFL courses offer a particular opportunity to anyone who would like to improve his/her teaching skills in English as a foreign language.

What was your funniest moment?
It does not come to my mind a funny moment. That is why I would like to describe the most interesting moment. This was when I was thinking how I could use my TEFL experience by volunteering in a country in Africa or Latin America.

TEFL Academy

I really enjoyed my lesson at TEFL Academy. First, I was took very lightly that with less money the course will be very easy, but it was very good in a challenging way. I learnt lots that I had taken for granted and managed to pass my assignment, it took a lot of nights to think of how to make plans and research and corrections. But having said that, I have come out a better teacher with good understanding of the topic.The tutor and admin support was good as they would get back to you with 3 working days and feedback on assignments was very easy to understand.

If you did this all over again, what's one thing you would change?
If I did this again, I would give more time and genuine research and commitment every week, as I had left the assignments for too long thinking it will be very easy.
So that finish it with ease rather than rushing out.

Personal Experience

I enjoyed my time during this course, the support was great and I learned a lot along the way. If you're wondering whether you will get support during the course, you will. Tutors and the admin staff are helpful, kind and will ensure they guide you in every way possible.
The feedback from the tutors are written in great detail, whether you pass the assignment or not you will receive the necessary input supporting you in your next attempts. I haven't tried other teaching courses so I can't comment on them, however, I would recommend this one.

What is your advice to future travelers on this program?
Give it a go and try something different, you may be pleasantly surprised!

Online level 5 Tefl Course

Studying the online Level 5 Tefl Course was one of the best decisions I have ever made. The course gave me the skills, knowledge and the needed confidence to teach both children and adults. The platform is very easy to follow and even though I considered myself to be a pretty good teacher, there was still a lot I still needed to learn, especially when it came to planning lessons. Throughout the course I learned new techniques and improved my general knowledge of English grammar and teaching methods. This course is a stepping stone to further development, offering ideas and recommendations to the teacher to help them continue developing professionally.

The Tefl Academy

I studied the Level 5 TEFL Online Course. The course was laid out really clearly and it was also enjoyable. The information provided throughout the course was extremely helpful and informative. Assignments prepared you for creating lesson plans and lesson activities. I think the course really prepares you for being in a classroom, it also helps you understand different teaching styles and approaches. The course itself wasn't difficult, but the assignments really test your understanding and ability of what it means to teach english as a second language.

If you did this all over again, what's one thing you would change?
I would leave more time for completing the assignments as they required more research than I initially anticipated.

Overall, a great learning opportunity!

The lessons are easy to navigate, and the assessments are a great review of those lessons. The only parts I found a bit troubling were the assignments. After completing the course, I think this would be a fantastic opportunity for primary school educators familiar with lesson planning, but it's a little more challenging for those of us without that benefit. The ability to complete this online was both wonderful and daunting, since your ability to understand everything is dependent on you alone. Nonetheless, I would recommend this course for anyone!

What was your funniest moment?
Dancing when I passed my assignment is at the top!

I studied the Level 5 TEFL Course. It has been an amazing experience. Before I started the course, I was sure that it would be a very comprehensive course full of information that I will need during my career. I really liked the feedbacks that I received for my assignments. They will act as a guide in my teaching experience. As someone who recently finished the course, I definitely suggest it to anyone who would like to follow a career in teaching. I would like to thank The Tefl Academy for such a great course.

I would suggest them to try to spend as much time as possible in different countries while teaching, meet different people, and share with them the things learned throughout the course. I would suggest them to inspire others because this will feel great. I wish them a great career.
